Hobie Tandem Island Catch and Cook Offshore Fishing Trip
I take the Hobie Tandem Island offshore with Aliex for a full day of fishing, then we cook our keepers on the beach.
What’s in this video
I met up with fellow YouTuber Aliex for a day of offshore fishing on the Hobie Tandem Island. We set up and rigged the kayak, got the sail up, searched for fish, caught bait and pulled some keepers for eating.
The weather got sketchy at times, with high winds and waves that nearly capsized the TI, but we pushed through. Pods of dolphins followed the kayak, and we finished with a great meal cooked on the beach. Next time I need to head to Aliex’s waters in Miami.
