Why I Still Love The Liska

by teamjk | Aug 13, 2019 | Fishing, Liska

In several of my previous blogs I have talked about my Liska to which I refer to most of the time as “Blue”. I’ve spent close to a year and a half in the Liska with a few other Jackson Kayak models sprinkled in between. As a matter of fact there are 2 newer, shiny...

Spring Time Fishing

by teamjk | May 20, 2019 | Fishing

Spring time has never been my strong suit. Early Spring been the season I’ve had to work at the hardest at over the years. Any success I’ve had hasn’t come with out putting in some extra time and effort along the way. In this blog I want to...

Weeknight Kayak Fishing

by teamjk | May 7, 2019 | Fishing, Video

Daylight savings time to some is a burden but to others it is a welcoming change that offers a little bit of extra time for weeknight kayak fishing. Weeknights are kinda how my bass fishing career really took off. Over the years I have spent several Wednesday nights...

Checking out the Big Rig HDFD

by teamjk | Apr 25, 2019 | Event Coverage, Fishing, Video

Boat show season is that time of year that after being locked down we finally get out, see a few familiar faces and check out the new kayaks. This year’s boat show tour kicked off once again down in Louisville, Ky with the great folks at Canoe Kentucky and...

1st Kayak Trip of 2019

by teamjk | Mar 28, 2019 | Fishing, Video

Doesn’t it feel great to be back? New year, new content and countless other things going on at Jackson Kayak. Starting out my 2019 Jackson Kayak blogs I honestly didn’t think we would be on the water yet. I’d kind of been planning on using the Louisville Boat Show as...

Looking Forward

by teamjk | Nov 24, 2018 | Fishing, Liska

November is typically the month that brings the cold north winds and runs us off of the water in Indiana. While some may refer to it as down time it is probably just as busy for me as the months on the water. In my mind these next 4 colder months are my most...

Evolution of a Fishermen

by teamjk | Sep 28, 2018 | Fishing, Liska

Seems like it was only yesterday the fishing journey had began.  Techniques were simple and the lures were basic.  Just the type of stuff you typically find in a high school kids tackle box.  Cut off t-shirts, jeans, and a baseball cap pretty much...

Seeing New Water

by teamjk | Sep 13, 2018 | Fishing, Liska

The month of August for me resembled the old Bassmaster show “A Day on the Lake”. You know the one where the angler shows up and fishes a body of water they have never seen before? Ultimately this was one of my favorite shows when I got into fishing. I liked that you...

Donkeyville

by teamjk | Aug 28, 2018 | Fishing, Liska, Video

This year we have set out on a mission to find bodies of water that we had not yet fished in southern Indiana. With the help of the Department of Natural Resources and Google Earth we landed on a special place tucked away in the hills, a place we call Donkeyville....

The Slop Hole

by teamjk | Aug 11, 2018 | Fishing, Video

Some mornings carry a little more magical than others. Dealing with post front conditions and the full moon phase we ended up having an amazing day on the water from our Jackson Kayak Liskas in the one and only “Slop Hole”.  Stay Crazy – Chad...

Will Kayak For Bourbon

by teamjk | Jul 4, 2018 | Recreational/Touring

The heat of summer is on and the fishing has been stellar but it was time to take my wife on a little weekend getaway. While I have been kayaking for awhile now, she is still very new to the sport. When I picked up our new Liska, Kimberly quickly claimed the kayak for...

Small River Fun In The Liska

by teamjk | Jun 4, 2018 | Fishing, Liska

Small rivers can be a blast when the hot, humid summer days get cranked up. Over Memorial Day weekend we got an early taste of the 90’s and that southern Indiana humidity. Knowing we had 3 full days to fish we opted to head to the Blue River and chase down a few...
