YFT and wahoo from the kayak! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks guys. One of the yellowtail this weekend hit the X-Rap. They definitely work. I noticed my older ones have pretty bad internal rust problems though, so bad the wire rusted through and hook fell off one of my 30 Magnums. They work well but be prepared to change them out even after washing them. The lure I got the yellowfin on has water inside.

The new rod leashes worked great for trolling, made for good hook holders on the big lures too!

Phil,

It looks lonely out there. Is there a Japanese kayak scene or is it all gaijin??

See they're not so bad. I would be so nervous to use a set-up like yours without leashes.
