Right now I intend to stick to inshore fishing until I get more comfortable with the yak and gear, Also I have a bunch of big hammer swimbaits, is that good just for bass or are you guys catching halibut off those also. Thanks in advance from the newbie

You'd probably benefit from starting a new thread, listing some of the heavier stuff you have & going from there. One of the nice things about yakfishing is that your yak is secondary drag, allowing you to go lighter. What do you have as far as 10#+ gear?
