Possibilities as a fishing Kayak

[yellow door 1]

If anyone knows where I can find photos of one of these set up as a fishing kayak - can you let me know - Thanks

try akff or kfdu and look into the rigged kayaks threads should be something in there

Had a look - the ocean frenzy doesnt appear to be a popular fishing craft

But I finally found a photo of someone fishing out of one

also take a look on VYAK...there might be something there

loks like it would be a great little bass/bream creek yak but without a rudder you might spend more time correcting your position than actually fishing when it comes to larger bodies of water. if your dead set on that yak then rigging it up is no different to any other yak, same principals apply. good luck with it

Thanks Ice - I found something similar to the frenzy with pics - looks pretty straight forward

Thanks Yakkindan - it was an impulse purchase a few years ago - Its a bit of a mule to paddle, so I think I'll heed your advice and stick to the skinny water

Its done a fair few kms in open water. Mostly towed at high speed while the occupant held on to a ski rope

Here's one of the rare shots of someone using it correctly.

Maybe use ''pacer'' in the search function in those forums i suggested, know akff has a heap in there and very similiar to the kayak above

I havent really seen many of those setup for fishing but you wouldnt really want to do too much to accept for maybe a rod holder would be good for skinny waters though.

Yeah I wont doing too much to it. A back rest, a rod holder and a milk crate should have it sorted.

The 2 little attachments on the side of that green yak is a good idea too to clip your paddle on when fishing or playing and landing fish. I use to have one of them yaks and I put in 4 rod holders, 2 behind me and 2 in front. The front ones were for putting the rod down whole unhooking fish or if you were dunking a bait. the ones behind were for keeping rods out of the way when paddling.
