Now before you start thinking I’m a Brad Pitt fan, I’m not. It just so happens that I was thinking about what lures I use to try to entice slow-to-bite or lethargic smallies in cold autumn water. Well when I was researching a little, I found lots of videos that people...

The original Coosa is still one of my favorite kayaks from the Jackson Kayak lineup. It is light and handles great in swift water. The large front hatch allowed you to store rods, camping gear and much more. It was one of the very first kayaks to feature a high and...
