Fish in waters off-limits to larger boats<\/h2>\r\nBeing able to launch a kayak from shore easily and, in turn, fishing waterbodies inaccessible to power boats is a significant perk of kayak anglers. Getting away from areas with heavy angling pressure and boat traffic is a good thing. One benefit of avoiding crowds is there is less competition among anglers, which means more spots you can have to yourself.\r\nFishing<\/a> remote or smaller waterbodies without boat ramps suitable for larger boats can also put you on fish that are more willing to bite. This doesn\u2019t guarantee hook sets, though, as there will still be cold fronts and other challenges to overcome. But, getting on less pressured waterbodies goes a long way towards helping catch more fish over the course of the season."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Capitalize on a fishing kayak\u2019s stealth","text_content":"

Capitalize on a fishing kayak\u2019s stealth<\/h2>\r\n\"Kayaka\r\n\r\nPaddling a kayak is quiet. Likewise when moving around in a pedal fishing kayak, like a Pelican<\/a> Catch 130 Hydryve or Old Town<\/a> Sporstman Bigwater PDL.\r\nStealth is a major advantage for the kayak angler. More often than not, the stealthier you can be on the lake, the more fish you\u2019re going to catch.\r\nThis is certainly true when fishing shallow. Trout, smallmouth and largemouth bass, walleye and panfish, to name just a few species, are wary of noises and overhead movements in water less than 12 feet, or deeper clear water.\r\nStaying quiet is also important when fish are positioned high in the water column over deep water. A classic example is how smallmouth bass and walleye feeding on suspending baitfish can get skittish around boat noise.\r\n\r\nAlthough a kayak\u2019s design is advantageous, it\u2019s still important not to make unnecessary noises, like dropping a tackle tray or banging a paddle against the side of the cockpit. Fortunately, there are plenty of kayak fishing accessories available for rigging your boat to ensure fishing gear stays organized and secure, so it won\u2019t move around and make a racket.\r\nTip: While you don\u2019t want to be detected by fish, it\u2019s critical you\u2019re visible to other boaters on the water. Wear a brightly coloured PFD<\/a> and clothing. Rigging your kayak with a visibility flag is also a good idea."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Stalk fish shallow","text_content":"

Stalk fish shallow<\/h2>\r\nAlong with stealth, a shallow draft makes a kayak the perfect vessel for fishing skinny water.\r\nThis makes a fishing kayak great for catching northern pike, trout, crappie and yellow perch from shorelines and shallow flats in the spring, and big largemouth and smallmouth bass, musky and bluegills in the summer.\r\nBeing seated in a fishing kayak puts you low to the water. This is a good place to be when you want to cast or skip a lure, such as a wacky rigged stickbait, for largemouth bass hiding under a fallen tree or dock along a shoreline."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"The best fishing lures and techniques for kayak fishing","text_content":"

The best fishing lures and techniques for kayak fishing<\/h2>\r\n\"Trophy\r\n\r\nGiven the stability and angling functionality of modern fishing kayaks, a wide range of techniques and baits can be used to catch fish. Here are just a few tactics to consider.\r\n

Trolling tips for kayak fishing<\/h3>\r\nTrolling is a great way to cover water in any boat, and a kayak is no exception. Even if you prefer casting, trolling a lure when moving from one spot to another is an easy way to increase the number of fish you catch, regardless of the species you\u2019re targeting.\r\nDiving crankbaits and shallow-running jerkbaits are great trolling lures for walleye, bass and pike. Spoons shine for pike and trout. If hoping to catch brook or rainbow trout in spring, you\u2019ll definitely want to troll a Lake Clear Wabbler Spoon with a dropper line attached to a wet fly, like a woolly bugger.\r\n\r\nTip:<\/strong> Most fishing kayaks<\/a> come pre-rigged with rod holders, but plenty of kayak fishing accessories<\/a> are available for customizing rod storage to best suit your needs.\r\n

Casting tips for kayak fishing<\/h3>\r\nLike casting from any other type of fishing boat, kayak anglers are wise to carry different baits and experiment with various tactics to learn what fish prefer. This means having lures you can work fast to cover water and trigger reaction strikes from predatory fish. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jerkbaits, spoons and swimbaits are good options for this tactic.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s also important to have options for fishing slower when you need to dissect a spot or finesse bites. A plastic on a jig and a drop-shot rig are two options.\r\nAlternating between presentations is a good strategy most days. For example, in spring, an angler can use a Rapala CountDown Elite to cast a rocky shoreline for brook trout, walleye or crappie, depending on the lake. Then, after catching a few fish from a specific spot, changing to a jig and Berkley PowerBait or Gulp! Minnow might help catch some less active fish from the same area.\r\nA similar approach can be applied to largemouth, smallmouth and walleye. Here, a kayak angler might first locate active fish casting a Rapala RipStop, Berkley Flicker Shad or Keitech swimbait on a jig. If the action subsides, switching to a finesse presentation and reworking the area is likely to produce additional fish. Finesse options for this scenario include the Z-Man TRD on a Finesse ShroomZ Jig (i.e., Ned rig), or drop-shotting a Berkley MaxScent Flatnose Minnow, Set The Hook Flat Sided Shad or X-Zone Slammer."},{"acf_fc_layout":"faq_zone","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"FAQ","faq_title":"FAQ","faq_text_content":"","post_faq":[{"post_faq_question":"How to fish in a kayak?","post_faq_response":"To summarize what\u2019s covered above, leveraging a kayak\u2019s strengths will catch you more fish, whether casting or trolling.

Rods can get knocked around a bit in a <\/span>kayak<\/span><\/a>, so investing in a tough product is worth considering.
