Kayak Fishing, Small Boats, Big Fish

kayak fishing

Sea Kayaks offers one of the best opportunities in the world to see a places from a different perspective. There is nothing quite like circumnavigating a desolate nook of Alaska or paddling around uninhabited Pacific islands by kayak to affect your outlook on just about everything. But kayaks also offer a suburb way for fisherfolk to reach spots where the fish are plentiful and the challenge of landing them surpasses that of landlubbing anglers. So we've covered kayak fishing a bit here, finding the sport a cool mix of two popular sports.

Paddler Magazine has got a page dedicated to kayak fishing that is worth a look if you, too, find kayak fishing appealing. The sites they mention here cover everything from "how tos" and gear to boat reviews to photography and video.

One of the richer sites is Big Water's Edge, a site loaded with videos and photos of people landing magnificent fish from the seats of their kayaks. Big fish, small boats. Another site called Yakfishing.com covers the sport for Southern California-based boater/fishermen. Altogether, the sites here provide lots of solid information about the hybrid sport, as well as links to outfitters should you want to give it a try.
