I'm tempted to ask "How do you tuna fish?".  But I won't.

LOL   :smt005. Good one!

One recent day, I was fishing a kelp bed alongside another kayaker.  He was listening to podcasts and eventually music on his bluetooth speakers; I was silent.  He was catching; I was getting skunked.

Obviously there are tons of variables in play, but his music wasn't prohibitive.  I'll add that it was loud enough that I could hear it 25 yards away.

Be careful, that might attract whales...

I fish with music a lot, doesn't seem to make a difference...it's just a little single waterproof speaker so not like i'm thumping the bass or anything....and I get others don't always want to hear my music so keep reasonable volume.

Rock and roll was meant to be played out loud. Let that ACDC slap. The fish are actually attracted to it, and those who are lame will be disgusted and paddle in the other direction. It's a win-win. So long as the playlist is fire, bump that shit dawg.
