Monday’s suck. You know that, we know that… so here at Kayak Fishing Blog, we want to HOOK1 you up every Monday with a special offer on a featured product. This week’s Featured product is the Dry Flex PDA Kit: This small investment protects your expensive cell phone or PDA for you while your on the water.

Kayaklu is a small company based out of Cambridge, MA and made entirely in the US.  They offer a wide variety of kayak fishing products, including an 18″ light called the Kayalite.  I recently had a chance to use and review the Kayalite – and came away very impressed.

Froggy Waters Outdoors owner Gary Ribet, myself, and Schoolhouse of Wonder rep Wendy Tonker had put a lot of time and...

We looked at each other, back to the water, then again to each other.  This is where we were going to be fishing?  The stream, which drains a large section of city before entering a local lake, was inches deep.  The sandy bottom did not look conducive to fishing, and I was stuck wondering whether or not we were making a mistake.  Worried that it was going to be a day of pushing rather than paddling and dragging rather than floating, we proceeded to launch and meander down the creek.  It wasn’t long before we were doing just what we had feared – dragging, pushing, pulling, and working very...
