First Aid

by | Jan 5, 2019 | Fishing

I think it’s very important when you go out fishing in a kayak that you bring a first aid kit. My background is in emergency medicine nurse so I have pretty extensive knowledge on what is important and what isn’t important to bring with you on a kayak. The basic...
Fishfinder setup on the Coosa FD

Fishfinder setup on the Coosa FD

by | Jan 4, 2019 | Coosa FD, Fishing

When installing a fishfinder on your Coosa FD the first step is determining which side of your kayak you want to have the screen mounted. I like to land my fish on the right side, so I mount my accessories on the left side. If you are running a larger screen the track...

As the open water season begins to wind down and the cold weather moves in many kayak anglers find themselves shying away from going out in these less than ideal conditions. There is still a plethora of opportunities to get out and on some fish right up until first...
Bassin on the Fly

Bassin on the Fly

by | Jan 3, 2019 | Fishing, Internationalisation, United States

Catching bass on the fly rod is my favorite technique. I still love the feeling of a bass t-boning a swimbait or smashing a spook, but nothing compares to the fight of a bass on the fly rod and the satisfaction of landing big bass on flies you tie yourself. My trip...

I wrote earlier on how to find new fishing waters. This is an update on using a sit inside kayak to help with the scouting. I use a Jackson Tupelo to scout out new waters. Why a Tupelo? It has the same comfortable frame style seat like my fishing kayaks. It’s very...

In August of 2017 I was living in Gulfort, MS and got a last minute phone call from a buddy at 7pm asking if I I wanted to head fishing off shore out of Navarre, FL in the morning. Like any sane person I said, absolutely what time do you want to meet? He told me, meet...

I love topwater fishing all year round in South Louisiana.  Nothing like seeing a nice speckled trout or redfish explode on your bait at any minute.  Some places I like to try are long runs with total trips averaging 10 miles. I used to hesitate making some...

Almost 40 years ago, my dad Big Mike Evans aka “Pops”, would usually tell me in the evening that we would be going fishing early the next morning so I had better get to bed. With images of sand and spotted bay bass running through my head, I would battle through the...

On the mighty Snake River in the spring of 2018 we finally set the hook on the colossal sized White Sturgeon that we’ve been chasing for nearly three years now. This monster fish set us out on an hour-long battle that would push us both to our physical limits and test...
