Kayak Fishing Magazine March Issue

The below articles are ones meant to both spur new adventure and allow for a safe and effective return to long-frequented fishing grounds. Leading the list is a man immune to seasonality - a veteran angler from the 50th state who shares with us the passion and technique necessary for a skilled pursuit of tuna. We also gather expert advice pertaining to safety and outfitting, two topics worth revisiting during a time when many of us are readying our personal fleets. The new year also brings to us new offerings with regard to kayaks; we test out one such boat and share our impressions.. We also had the opportunity to test drive a stalwart of the paddle market. For those of you longing for warmer days, a trip report takes us to the always varied Sea of Cortez.

It is our sincere hope that as we head into Spring that you all have a prosperous and safe season. Stay tuned for exciting updates along the Kayak Fishing Magazine front, some already completed and many more in progress.. And as always, keep in touch by sharing your kayak, equipment, and trip reviews.

Sea of Cortez Kayak Fishing

Saw a nice wake, led it by about five feet, and threw a 3” green and silver Krocodile lure.. Almost immediately after the lure hit the water, bang!. Fish on.. No problem figuring out what it was. It was airborne, shaking its head, tail walking, and putting on an air show that only one fish is known for – the dorado.
