How Do You Do Yours?
Since the fishing is still slow he's another topic that we can discuss
![]() How exactly do you fight your fish? First and foremost I clear my other rods by getting any lines that are in the water completely out of the water or at least make sure that it's at the surface. I prefer to fight and land my fish on my right side so if the rod on the left was hit I will raise the line on the rod that is on the right and place it on the opposite side. If the hooked fish takes a massive run I will pedal towards it, adjust my direction using one of the two rudder controls that I have, reel, pedal, adjust, reel, pedal, pedal, reel, pedal, etc. The entire time I am looking at the direction of my line, if its horizontal I know that the fish is still ahead of me so I will continue to pedal until the line is vertical. Once the fish is near the surface and getting to within gaffing range I will grab my gaff, pedal and attempt to adjust the fish so that its moving/swimming parallel to my kayak and in the same direction, of course. Once it's in range I will gaff the fish, get it slightly out of the water and clip. What's your style?
