Kayak Fishing

Cooler temps this morning but did make the run to Texoma and put in a Spillway Ramp. Had one school pass and was able to catch one Striper.

Made a quick run to Highland Park this morning on Lake Lavon. Was hoping to catch a fish or two with the new jug lines, but ended up striking out. Did get a couple of hits but was not able to hook up. Was promising in that we saw one fisherman with a number of… [read more]

Made it to Tickey Creek today; tested another kayak jug fishing design. Test went well; liking the ease of deployment! Just no bites. Luckily, did get some video of what was lurking below! Also, had a hard time catching shad with the cast net but did catch enough to set lines. Trolled jigs and slabs… [read more]

Fished Clear Lake Park on Lake Lavon yesterday. Slow go at first while we trolled a Slab and Jig Rig tied sabiki style. No hits until we started bouncing the rig on the bottom! Fun stuff with Crappie, White Bass, and even Catfish on the line.

Here is a series of pictures taken as it passed by… cannot tell what it is. Maybe a Gaspergou? Caught two fish #kayakfishing today…. [read more]

Caught four Keepers yesterday while kayak fishing at Brockdale Park. Bite was steady with more calm waters and minimal wind. Caught a few trolling but most were caught jigging! Fun times… will be back. Did go fishing today at Bethany Creek Park pond. Working on the video; lots of Bluegill!

Did some kayak fishing at Brockdale Park (Lavon) Saturday morning. Things started out slow – one Shad caught while casting to a school of what we thought were White Bass. Other was a White Bass caught trolling the Tandem Sabiki Flies and a Slab Jig. After an hour without another strike, decided to try working… [read more]

Finally made it out in the kayak. Fished the point at Brockdale Park. Birds were working the shad from above; White Bass were working the shad from below. Used a fly rod and a bow mounted rod holder to fish a tandem crappie jig and tube fly. Lots of fun with most bites on the… [read more]
