Spoke with a shark fisherman this summer. Their method - at night - is to kayak their bait 300 yards out. Had the shit scared out of him when a large dorsal fin surfaced along side. Was relieved to learn it was a porpoise.

Great fish . My favorite fish to catch and eat. We have alot of Yakers who fish long island sound. Lot to see them hooked up on a big striper . No motor needed . I see kayaks 3 miles off shore in 70 ft fishing Fluke when weather is right.

Wow,where did you catch this wonderful flounder, and what did you use for bait? I realize you may not want to tell me, but I've been trying to catch flounder for two years, and I'm in Pensacola, Fl.

I contemplated doing some kayak fishing. Quickly change my mind when I saw the size of some of the gators out here in Suwannee.

Here in NC a keeper has to be 15”+, usually catch them on Mud Minnows

Let me double back the life jacket. Bought an inflatable one at Academy for $90. I diss -connected the auto blow up. Pull the card and there she blows.
Now I am 69. Swam in college. Not interested in what if. Be prepared.

Hey TW is that the Z Man mud minnow or live bait. I have been using the Z man, trout here seem to snack on it especially on the popping cork.

PB ,We use live ones, sometimes shrimp, but they seem to prefer the minnows

Not knowing what the live ones actually look like, TW they are on line I believe at Amazon. If you are into lures might want to compare the picture to what the live ones look like. Those Z man baits mud minnow with paddle tail do last quite awhile. Not that I use them each time out, but here of late and depending on the clarity of the water they do well.
