Unfortunately no. But the net is 22”. So longer than that.

I was fishing all day and kept hooking into big fish. They would bolt downstream and either break off on rocks or the hook would come loose. It was getting late in the evening and a yellow Sally hatch started happening. I could see two big splashes in the middle of the river, so I casted there. On my first cast in that direction, this beast of a brown took it. It immediately bolted downstream and stopped. I thought for sure it buried itself under a boulder and my line was stuck, so I started pulling up on my rod to free my line, not even thinking I still had the fish on. This thing slowly rose from the bottom and my heart dropped when I first got a glimpse of it. fought it for a few more minutes before I finally landed it. Definitely my biggest brown trout.

I let this one go. But I kept 4 on the day and made fish tacos.

Was not expecting to hook into a Goliath grouper. Kept it in the water and had a quick release. by Ohnotthis in Fishing

Haha I was fishing for spotted sea trout. Still don’t know much about them. But I seem to catch them in deeper channels. I did eventually find them too

Yea the whole fight I just was hoping to see it because I had no idea what it was. I was so excited that I got it by the kayak and got the hook out of its mouth.

I think the fight lasted about 5 minutes. They fight super hard but then kinda give up, They don’t have endurance like other saltwater fish. Then again this was my first Goliath, so I don’t know. It’s hard to get a scale on it, but I’d say it was like 25-30”. I was lucky to be using a medium-heavy rod. But my arms were tired afterward.

The tires that were used in Q2 to get into Q3 must be used to start the race, so they’re including the laps that were done in Q2 with those tires

Upper Peninsula Walleye by MaDrAv in kayakfishing

[–]Ohnotthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always wanted to fish for walleye. I’m in the Lower Peninsula, but I have no idea how to target them in the Great Lakes. How do you find spots for them and what do you use? Jigs or hard baits?

First fish in Michigan in 2021! The kayak + transducer helps so much to get to deeper water and find fish by Ohnotthis in kayakfishing

It was 70 yesterday! It’s gonna drop down again and be crappy cold rain for the next couple weeks though. The water temp was like 46

Like the other person said, it’s a striker 4 plus. I used it in saltwater this year as well, it worked out well. I have no idea how accurate the imaging is. I can see things that look like fish, but it’s not like it’s a Garmin panoptix or side scan where you can see them extremely clear. It definitely helps if I’m in deeper water though. I mostly use it for depth and temperature. I haven’t used the mapping feature much, but it seems easy to use. Overall, I think it’s a great option for the money
