Urban Kayak Fishing – Get The Lunker Lurking Nearby
John Fabina, from Brew City Kayaks, Wisconsin, found the formula for getting the big ones without traveling long distance for it. Says John:
-”Big bass like this lurk in lakes that receive little fishing pressure. Boats and regular kayaks are not able to reach these types of water that the Wavewalk can access. I am able to maneuver over objects such as bogs and logs and tight spots. Being able to stand also comes in handy while looking for fish and pockets in shallow water. I find these fish factories by checking satellite photos and maps. The Wavewalk kayak does the rest. It is not surprising that these lakes, ponds and streams hold quality fish. The amazing part is that they can be so close to urban areas.”
As simple as that!
First step: Intelligence and Reconnaissance,
Second step: Just owning the right fishing kayak, and knowing how to use it.
And if you think it’s just an urban myth, go to John’s blog, and watch the video of the big largemouth bass he caught this way! Continue reading
