Hey there! I’ve fished from a kayak for over a decade, starting on quiet farm ponds before working my way up to coastal saltwater trips chasing redfish and stripers
I spent six years guiding kayak fishing trips and working the counter at a paddlesports outfitter, where I rigged, repaired, and test paddled more kayaks than I can count. I’ve capsized enough times to know exactly what gear actually matters when things go wrong on the water
Whether you’re picking your first fishing kayak or trying to figure out why your rigging keeps failing, I’ve probably already made that mistake myself, and I’ll tell you what actually worked.
