WTB: First fishing kayak! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Drshafty · 03-02-2017, 06:46 PM

Hello, I'm new to this forum and really excited to give kayak fishing a shot. I have a couple buddies that fish the la Jolla kelps every summer and I wanna get in on it! I'm looking for something ready to fish. Nothing to crazy but enough to get me out to the yellow tail. Preferably 500-800 range. Thanks!

Build your own bait tank, get a sick paddle, and get a sonar down the road.

Go to the Fred Hall show to check out the rigged up boats, just to get ideas of what you are looking for. Jim Salazar is also doing a seminar on picking the right kayak.
