giant kayak redfish
did anyone just see the show on versus about fishing on a budget? the guy went down to Louisiana, rented a kayak, polled himself around sight casting to big redfish. he managed to land a monster redfish(~35lbs) on the fly, all by himself! the thing was taking him out to the gulf of Mexico! pretty impressive...

I will have to search for that. Do you know what the name of the show was?  |

I saw that show. I was surprised that he said a budget deal and then paid $150 a day to rent the Yak and then paid another $250 for a ride to the fish. The next day he paid a skipper to go fishing at $550 a day. The $ 559 seemed in line, but 150 for the Yak sounded high to me.
His catch was impressive. Riddler could make his fish look small on Joppa Flats. Got Tow?

The show is called "Dollar Wise Fly"
It's part of the Friday night line up on Versus.
I wouldn't mind going on a "Nantucket Sleigh ride".

That was insane, one heck of a fish, but on a kayak! Neat show.
