Picture for attention. Folks we are raging a spiritual war. I lost another friend to suicide today. Nervous breakdowns, depression, and mental illness are real. I’m a believer in Jesus Christ and I find my strength in Him. That’s not saying I don’t have bad days, fight off my problems, and have my own weaknesses. You all see the fluff and glamour on this silly YouTube channel but it’s not the everyday life that we all face, dealing with our fragile existence as failing mankind. I can only get thru this life on earth leaning on my savior Jesus Christ and so thankful for His sacrifice of dying on the cross and rising again after 3 days to save me from my inability’s to do it all on my own. I’ll continue with Yakventures but you all must know that any success I portray on this channel is merely superficial. I’m like everyone else just trying to get thru this earthy fallen world and be ready to meet my Savior in heaven for eternity when my time is done on this earth. Tight Lines YouTube land….

Some days the kayak stays home and it’s nice to jump in a boat with your buddies. Pinkfin surf perch making the annual run in the Umpqua River Bay to spawn. Always a fun trip out of Winchester Bay.

My suspicion was confirmed. A whole lot easier to take the prop blade off on dry than on a bumpy ocean. Check out latest full video to see what happened and what I did to get me back fishing.

I’m enjoying the new Jackson Knarr FD kayak. Still getting it all set up before I do a walk thru of my new fishing setup but more importantly I’ve figured out a new editing process and will be able to upload full length videos in a more timely manner. Tight lines fellow Yakers!

Welcome to Yakventures 2.0. We are coming back stronger for the 2025 season with added content subjects lined up. Thanks for everyone’s patience as I dealt with computer issues. This newest video upload on Crabbing has been well received and a special Christmas gift, commercial free, as I opted to not edit a short clip of music, making it ineligible for monetizing. Tight Lines and excited for a new upcoming year and season of KAYAK FISHING ADVENTURES.

Welcome to Yakventures! My love for the water goes above and below the surface, fishing both the saltwater and freshwater, spearfishing below the surface for lingcod and rockfish, working on the ocean on a first class commercial fishing vessel, and hiking into high alpine lakes for trout. There is something here for the hiker, kayaker, spear fisherman, and a few glimpses into the life of a commercial fisherman. My love for the outdoors runs deep and my faith in the Lord and strong family values are core to my makeup. My energy level is high as you’ll see in my videos and I want to share the love of kayaking with others and start an adventure based kayaking business in the near future. Come join the in the fun and welcome to my channel!
