You look so natural out there your fishing skills are just amazing to watch I love watching and learning what you do out there thank you for sharing God bless and take care and keep bringing it

Awesome video! Great job catching those bass, it looks like a lot of fun!

Anxiously awaiting day 2! Watching from Austin but was raised on the Susquehanna river.

Wishing you the best of luck. Hope you get them all in the kayak!!!

Wishing you luck. You always find a way!

Loved this video! That place looks beautiful!

You’re so awesome!! I’m always pulling for you!!

Love it! A little AC/DC in the middle of another super cool video of you kicking tail!! Keep up the awesome content and best of luck in all your tourneys!

Great fishing Kristine! My wife and I are planning to fish from our Hobie kayaks on the Susquehanna this weekend. We hope to replicate some of your success. Good luck in your next tournament.

Can't wait to catch up on some of your videos and watch new ones from Hobie Worlds while I heal up from ACL surgery. Good luck in Sweeden with Ron and Brandon. Hope to see yall at at least one VOS event next season when my knee is healed up.

Floated the river two weeks ago for catfish and fished for bass to make the time go by caught a nice 18” and saw a huge bass at the base of a tree in the water below Hoovers island

great video, everyone arounf the country knew this was going to be one of the best events this year. great showing. Love that wake bait, i mod a tail on the end with a trick worm to draw the big girls out

Been missing ya Christine. Miss your enthusiasm and shear joy of doing what you love. Hope your doing well

I'm loving all your fishing adventures ❤️

Best one Wooow superb fish and superb fishing 🎣🐟🐟🐟

Great video, that is one big and beautiful river!

That’s place is on my hit list! You did great! I know it wasn’t what you wanted but…you kept it together. Well done 🔨🔨🔨

great video Kristine, You know the fish are big when you have to chase them down.

Wow awesome 💯💯💯

That's my home river I fish it all the time . River running very low and clear. But still good fishing. I was pulling🙏 for you to win the tournament.

Best plans rarely work out. Keep at it and you will prevail!

Pennsylvania, fished it in Clearfield County and caught some nice Smallies, and Rock Bass(AKA) Red Eye!

Go get 'em! Keep at it

I grew up in susquehanna pa muskie took over the river up there the smallies were food for the apex river predator. Not the case in the lower end of the susquehanna. Last june a day trip from windsor ny too redrock was a epic muskie trip. Things have changed since the dam at susquehanna broke .

Hey gorgeous, nice and calm waters great fish!❤

Live in new Cumberland pa and I struggle so hard on the Susquehanna but as soon as I go back to VA or the Carolinas I have no problem

Kristine….you are awesome!! I was trying to do something similar…..though i didnt do it nearly as precise or clinical……i didnt mark out the spots, and accidentally spooked my fish cuz i couldnt remember if that was a spot; and an unforseen issue happened……..other kayakers blew right past some of my good areas as i was approaching and spooked my big fish. I caught a ton of little fish, and a couple good ones. I was using the rapala brat squarebill in the moss craw color…..I bought like 7 of them; they loved that thing, but i lost a couple fish before i got smart and swapped the hooks to duo realis nano hooks. Then never had an issue, those hooks actually went THROUGH bone on a fish and i had to use pliers on every one after that. I just didnt fish very clean or smart, and u gotta do both against this field. In the end, my big fish came at very end of day on a full hail mary bait i hadnt thrown at all during practice. sneaking back up to areas i spooked them hours before and throwing a berkley j-walker. Walk it a few times, pause…..explosion. At least i remembered my pfd this time though…..lol. Congrats on cashing a check and getting those points!!!!

Excelente buenas capturas

Pretty good day all in all. That last 16 1/2 incher was just mean..lol Being on the water like you do when your there to watch the world wake up is one of the best parts of the day for me.

Get it girl! Love seeing a females kicking ass. Lived around Susquehanna my whole life. Pretty awesome. Glad to see you killing it. 🤙

It's always good when I see you hopping around on your Yak. I look like a scared dog getting in and out of mine and you're all over yours

Missed seeing you. You did not seem yourself without Your boat. Keep going girl. Tight lines...

I know you can win this keep your head in the game and keep casting

Loved the video Miss Kristen

Solid 💪

Been slaying the 18-21" smallies on a black and green popper for the last two weeks. Only problem is I am way up river in Vestal NY on the Susquehanna River.

Wooohooo!! Let’s goooooo!

OMG I screamed out loud

The smallmouth walleye capital of the north east! One of my favorites, I live on the Delaware which is a steeper smaller version of the susqy. We have been seeing the big ones in shallow moving flats between 2 sets of rapids, same with the eyes. Nothing has been using eddy lines at all, exceptions of first and last light. The smaller numbers are coming out of the fast wash. The rule for PA during the HOT is fast moving craw actions. If they dont bite they aint there.

Another productive session. Great video. Would love to be a fly on the wall when Darren spots that double handle setup mate! Has he and and are you still talking

Gosh darnit Kristine! I've been binge watching your videos and came across one where you talked about a case in which you put your go pro camera so you can remove the battery and plug it into a power supply and it doesn't overheat. For the life of me I cannot find that video again or the slip of paper I wrote it down on. Thanks for your help.

Good luck 🙏🏻 u rock

Nice!

This was exactly what I needed before I fish the Championship Copple Cup in the Napra pro wading league. Thank you for the content my sister and fellow Angler God Bless you and yours🙏🙏🙏💙🙏🙏🙏👋🙌🤺🎣🐟.

Would love to more about the yak you were cruising, looked comfy....and I am hoping portable on the fly (somewhat). But impressed with your slayer skills!

Ever notice it’s always the big fish that get away! Nice job getting to twelfth with that day!

My heart swells watching you ... not many women ... almost have tears! Alive and Fishin'

The Sus is the jewel of PA! I am on west branch and sadly the dnr haven’t yet instituted the catch and release..

Ok…PLEASE, PLEASE can you contact the company and ask them to let you do a demo video with what happens when a hook gets stuck in the raft? I’m a disabled veteran and the inflatable kayak looks to be the best option for my physical limitations but I am 1000% never gonna commit until I see a real world test. Thank you for another inspirational video, I am still nervous for you from that day you posted that alligator chasing you?! Ain’t no way you would ever see me back there without a bigger boat!! V/R RU-vid taught fishermen!

Cool video! I’m terrified of water but I want to get into kayak fishing. How are you identifying these spots as holding large fish?

Thumbs up 13th great video Thanks

I love the vids and I really want to get into kayak bass tournaments I have a NU canoe frontier now but was wondering what kayak you have? Keep up the great work I have been watching for about a year and a half

You may have hit the panic button but it saved the day.

Did u make a day 2 video?

Nice job! I used to fish the "Sus" in the mid 90s, in Pennsylvania. What stretch were you all fishing?

Hi Kristine...awesome video. One question...why the Hobie I-Trek11 inflatable rather than the Hobie Lynx ? Just curious about your thoughts on this choice. Having fished from various inflatables early in my kayaking days I can attest to them being very quiet and stealthy in general, which I am guessing is what may have led you to this choice since you are fishing really skinny waters. Good luck in Sweden! We will be watching.

Great video. Need to get yourself a micro power pole so you don't get pulled into your spot after you hook a fish.

Will you ever use googan baits

is that a Cajun wakebait?

Thank You JESUS!

Lately for day such as that one. Being larger muscled I get gased out too quickly in warm sunshine like that. And just eventually collapse. I did some initial research on good natural sources of electrolytes. For example, breakfast, supper and stuff that's very compact to carry (dried apricot, or a small quantity of sun flower seed).

where can i find the rules on those kayak fishing tourneys? I'd like to get in there, mix it up

Where on the suski was this

I have a lucky hat also. 😆

Bait ? Was that a hybrid hunter you were throwing ? Don't want to put you on blast - just reminded me

Perhaps anchor when you hook up so you don't get dragged into the spot that could have held multiple fish?

Did you all switch up boats on day 2? I was talking to G at the ramp on the trek on day 2. Congrats!

What was you favorite section of river to fish ?

Do you think the inflatable kayak kept you from getting those fish to the boat ? I would think you have less leverage than in a regular kayak.🤔

Did I see a Strike Pro Hunchback on that first fish?!

Wait are you sight fishing some of these big fish??? I need to try that

Great job. Next time should be better.

Lets go my sister and fellow Angler sincerely "The Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer"🙏🙏🙏💙🙏🙏🙏👋🙌🤺🎣🐟. Got to love the pitbull of bass🙏🙏🙏💙🙏🙏🙏👋🙌🤺🎣🐟.

Stick to fishing, I don't think AC/DC'll be calling you up for vocals, anytime soon. 😆 Super-shallow. That I-trek was worth it's weight in gold, I'd say.

Kristine, when do you think you'll have time to upload Day 2?

So, I find it very interesting that I won a mystery box, exchange texts with someone just to find out in the end I have to pay shipping. I am not sure this is Kristine doing this give away, as to give a gift and ask someone to pay shipping is not her style. Be aware of this.

This chick is a stick!!!

The word biggin is so overused. Clearly you've caught many, but it just drives me nuts

Motors on kayaks = no interest for me yawn!

There are times you seem to be ungrateful!... you seem to try to add the fans into it, yet, YOU are the one screwing up. I like to watch you fish but you don't seem to appreciate the time you have to teach people. It's NOT all about you!
