reels and rods - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

How much can spend? That is an important factor too.

One rod I definitely recommend is the Ahi Sabiki rod. It holds all of the hooks of a Bait (Sabiki) rig inside the rod, which is a hollow tube. It prevents having to worry about all of those dangling hooks.

If you are comfortable using a low profile reel, then that should be used with it. You can use a spinning reel, but due to steeper angle, it will cut in your casting distance.

On a kayak that is not important, but I use it on the piers, and it does make a difference.
