Kayak fishing tips, spots, and gear that actually work.
I’ve spent years figuring out what actually works from a fishing kayak—where to launch, what to throw, and how to stay safe when things get sketchy.
If you’re not a sponsored pro, you’re in the right place.
Most of what you see online is either glossy marketing or hardcore tournament stuff. Kayak-Fishing.com is built for regular anglers in real kayaks—used boats, milk crate setups, two or three rods, and limited launch time before and after work or on the weekend. My goal is to help you skip a bunch of the expensive, wet, and frustrating lessons I had to learn the hard way.
