Binoculars - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

[Binoculars are invaluable no matter how high off the water you are; spotting birds, foamers, PB'ers, and kayakers.

I've found countless inshore squid nests from the beach with binoculars, especially in the Bu 2010 and 2011.

Don't be discouraged by snide remarks. If you are new to kayak fishing (I am) or new to navigating "yourself" to fish (I'm not), get some binoculars.[/QUOTE]

Im rather new to this but how do you spot squid nests from the beach?

One other question... If you spot birds using your binoculars are you able to make it to the spot in time on the kayak before they move on? I mean usually if my eyes can see the birds I struggle to make it let alone using bino... But maybe I'm slow..

Thanks for the insight..
