It’s not a canoe, because my canoe takes two people to get anywhere. That thing is and heavy. It’s not a Kayak because you have nowhere to put the fishing gear.
I want to bring the average amount of fishing gear, and I’d like to bring my 30 lb dog along for the ride.
I’m a day-tripper, but I have never fished from my kayak.
I don’t want a rod and reel; I want something simple, cheap, and compact to fish with.
I asked about a pocket-fisherman but was shot down.
So how about something even simpler; a hand-line with a hook on the end?
Can I catch a 20 pounder without being dragged all over the place?
I have never caught a 20 pounder and don’t think I will anytime soon. Realistically the fish would be 5-10 lbs
I would like to surprise my husband with one, but I know nothing about them! He will be using it in lake water, doesn’t fish, and can use it year round. I know they can get pretty expensive and I want to keep it lower to mid-range price wise if possible. Any suggestions?
