  • Kayak Fishing
    KAYAK FISHING In the past several years kayak fishing has become a huge sport. People can be seen fishing from kayaks on coastlines, rivers, bays and inlets around the world. Anglers enjoy the quiet access offered by a kayak; they also appreciate the ease of transporting a kayak as opposed to a larger rowboat or powerboat. Popularity has grown in part due to the ease of entry into the sport. Especially compared to powerboats, fishing kayaks can be purchased inexpensively and have few maintenance costs. They can be stored in small spaces and launched quickly. Most designs offer great stability and ease of maneuverability. The new generation of twinhull (catamaran) kayaks recently introduced into the market is stable enough to enable both paddling and fishing in the standing position. Anglers don’t have to remain in a seated position for hours on end, and increased visibility from the standing position means more fish. There are also kayaks propelled by flippers or propellers and a foot mechanism. These kayaks offer hands-free fishing and all the benefits associated. Some kayak manufacturers offer special models for fishing that are designed and accessorized for this sport, including specially- designed hatches, built-in rod holders, catch bags and equipment mounts. BOATS - HIGH END 68 - 74 BOATS - PERFORMANCE 76 - 78 PADDLES 79 SPECIFIC GEAR 80 KAYAK FISHING BOATS HIGH END ADVANCED DESIGNS ALLOW THE KAYAK FISHERMAN A COMFORTABLE PLACE TO STAND AND LARGE SPACE FOR STORAGE.
