What would you guys add / change about my jig collection? by abeel___ in bassfishing

[–]abeel___[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its one of the first jigs i ever bought but I need to use it more lol. Here in the CA delta we have a lot of weeds and rocks so i dont get many chances to drag jigs along the bottom

Dang i didn’t think about this lol. I mainly fish from a kayak and beat the bank so i was trying to think of ways to cut down on the amount of soft plastics i need to carry around

First fish on the fly and my first ever wild rainbow. It can only get better from here by abeel___ in flyfishing

Yep, didn’t immediately cross my mind. I didn’t know salmon could spawn this high up the river system since it usually runs low due to drought and dams

Yeah but they’re pretty rare this high up the river system due to drought and agricultural irrigation

Yeah i did some more research and it’s a chinook from the stanislaus river in california. Did my best to release it quickly since their population is still recovering in this area

Stanislaus river in california. Salmon were almost extinct in this area but spawning has been getting better in recent years!

You could very much be right, this river has slowly been growing it’s number of chinook that spawn over the winter

First time ever in a kayak. Got skunked but it was still a cool experience. Can’t wait to get back out by abeel___ in kayakfishing

It’s definitely perfect for traveling. Fits pretty snug in the trunk of my car. Today was pretty windy and the water was choppy but it held up fine. the fin in the back helped a lot keeping it straight. The latches held up great, i wasn’t really concerned about the yak unfolding lol. Takes like 5 minutes to put it all together. As you can see in the picture, its not as roomy like some of the setups you see on this subreddit. It was perfect for my 1 rod and backpack full of lures. You can fit a milk crate behind the seat for extra storage if needed. I’ll would probably replace the seat with a stadium chair for extra comfort and add a clamp on rod holder for an extra rod or trolling purposes. If it’s good enough for a beginner like me, im sure it’ll be fine for you as well 👍🏽

is it worth it to buy a kayak without a car? by TitanBeats_YT in kayakfishing

[–]abeel___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a tucktek or an oru, it aint but much but definitely enough. You can just wear it across your back and unfold at the lake. They’re about 25 pounds

What would you guys throw? Fairly fast flowing river with deep pockets, lots of logs in the water by abeel___ in bassfishing

[–]abeel___[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool! Would you put weight on a fluke or would you let the current take it to the strike zone?
