Trolling lures - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Yes, I have used both Rapala and Yozuri lures to catch fish off the kayak.

My favorite is a Yozuri Crystal minnow in 130mm floater. The weighted versions don't seem to swim as well for me off the kayak.

This Blackfin Tuna was taken on the mullet version of the 130mm Crystal Minnow floater. I have taken fish up to 32lbs on this lure in darkness(sorry no pic, too dark for the gopro video).

This one was taken on a Rapala x-wrap.

The Nomad dtx line seems to be popular on the West Coast. Most of my successes have been in darkness or sunrise.
