its cheap, easy and fun. you don't have to catch a big fish or a lot of fish to have a good day.

plus more advertising and the power of the internet.

I fished last week with 68 year old guy on his first kayak session. He owns a yatch and makes several long range trips a year but He was like kid with his first fish catching spotties and vina off the yak. The fun factor is huge. Mike

Because it so dang fun.

The exercise is a great health benefit as well as the wonderful seafood.

I started yak fishing a little over a year ago and have gone at least once a week ever since. I now need to go out on the water.

And the big secrete is, that it is so much easier (to Kayak Fish) then most people think. Beach Launching thru waves at La Jolla on a small swell is a cakewalk. Lobster Hooping at night is so easy when it sounds so difficult at first.

It is all good.

I got into it this year because my son, who is 17 wanted to get into it. I thought it would be a good excuse to get more father/son time. Who knows how much time I will have with him until he finds others to hang with.

We made a few good trips to LaJolla and the harbor in Oceanside. Not many fish to be had but good time spent on the water.

sold my kayak and picked up a skiff

but kayaks are easier to transport/store, can paddle over kelp, and can get real close to rocks without worrying about damage. + exercise is always nice. and catching a big YT on a kayak while a boat stares at you = awesomeeee
