Getting on the water is a victory for me. Catching is a bonus.

Go when you can go and focus matters. If you bring a bunch of stuff to catch anything you may end up catching next to nothing. Focus and targeting a species is important.

Personally, I think kayak fishing is less about a 'trophy' fish and more about the adventure and the hunt. Every time you go out you are going on an adventure, hunting for a fish, and to me any fish is a trophy (well maybe not lizardfish )... When I'm out on my kayak, which is not often enough, I'm a world away from traffic, land lubbers and closed in spaces, it is my happy place.

That is awesome. I bet you derive much more happiness out of it, when you do get on the water, than people who are just obsessed with the end result. I personally get immersed in the systems and methodical grind of of it. I get addicted to searching out conditions and bait and checking the different zones and spots and hypothesizing what a mackerel thinks about.
