If you are new to kayaking and think that kayak fishing might be something you could get interested in you should check out this video and then go and read some of our fishing kayak reviews.

If you’ve fished before but haven’t used a kayak it is a very different sport and you have to be a lot more safety conscious.

The video is about kayak fishing in Florida but the information about choosing the right fishing kayak could apply to pretty much anywhere in the USA. Obviously you will have to take into account climate, weather conditions and other factors when setting out. We’d advice taking some sort of kayaking class to be on the safe side.

Some of the things discussed are;

  • How it’s an environmentally friendly hobby
  • why a sit on top kayak is best for fishing
  • Why the width of the Kayak is important
  • Paddling techniques
  • What to take with you on a fishing trip
  • The costs of all the equipment you need for a fishing kayak set up.

 

The guy in the video has a bit of an annoying voice and (spoiler alert) they don’t actually catch any decent sized fish!

But in all seriousness we here at kayak reviews thought the video was a good introduction to kayak fishing and excuse the pun might wet your appetite to learn more!
