Got a cover - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Jim Sammons LJKF · 11-01-2010, 08:41 AM

A shot taken by Will Richardson of me while we were in New Zealand shooting our show made the cover of NZ fishing News.

We caught so many Kingfish aka Yellowtail on this trip it was insane. Most of the fish were caught using big knife jigs. Just had to keep a look out for the sharks. We were fishing on the new OK Ultra 4.7 a very sweet kayak.

I love how your making sure your feet don't touch the water in that shot

Heck yeah Andy, that fish was bitten in half while I was holding the jig and lifting the fish from the water.

Bronze Whalers, or Bronzies as they called them.

Cool cover photo - but the one below it is really a cool shot.

Nice cover shot, that is pretty rad. I like the other shot; makes me want to wear steel toe work boots in the kayak.

DESTROYER · 11-02-2010, 01:05 PM
