hi everyone,
not sure if this should be on this forum but cos i'm after local info i hope its kept on here.
does anyone use kayaks for fishing round the kent coast and what are your tips/ experiences?
me and my mate steve are just about to buy our first proper angling kayaks, since we both love close, inshore fishing, and having had god knows how many other small waterbourne vessels between us it seemed a natural progression. 500 quid gets you a cracking little vessel. we are gonna be spinning for bass off of norfolk soon but the tide up there is not what it is round here and any tips on fishing round kent would be appreciated.
with there light weight and easy launching, we aim to take the kayaks all over the country with us and fish as much as possible. we are both fully aware of risks, safety and the limitations of fishing from such small craft, ours will be kitted out with compasses, handheld vhf, fish finders, hanheld gps, plus all flares, etc, etc have to admit i wasnt into the idea of kayak fishing until i was 'enlightened' !!! cheers, nick.
