🎣 Insane Wind, Epic Pike Fishing! | Crawling Valley Kayak & Paddleboard Fishing 🚣‍♂️🌊

Welcome back to Angling Spiders! In this episode, Sean, Alec, and Bennett hit Crawling Valley Reservoir in Alberta — and what a day it was! Despite intense wind, we battled through waves and weeds to land double-digit pike, with a few near-misses and unforgettable catches.

We tested three different watercraft: a one-man canoe, stand-up paddleboard, and my Mako 8.5 air, giving us a full-spectrum look at what it takes to fish in extreme conditions. We also put the Angling Spiders Len Thompson spoon to the test, and it didn’t disappoint!

🎣 Tackle Used:
🧲 Angling Spiders Spoon – Exclusive for Black Widow members (join for 6 months to get yours!)
🚣‍♂️ Pedal kayak performance in wind – full test results inside!

🔥 Highlights:
✅ 10 pike landed despite 30+ km/h winds
✅ First open water trip to Crawling Valley in 2025
✅ Real-life kayak fishing in Alberta
✅ Gear performance in high wind & choppy water
