Reflection

by Anthony Shingler | Aug 4, 2018 | Coosa FD, Fishing

It is July 30th, 2018 and I have taken a small “break” from kayak fishing. I have spent the last 48 out of the last 60 days chasing my goal of a top 10 finish in the Kayak Bass Fishing (KBF) Angler of the Year Standings at the end of the year. I have fished Kentucky...

So, as I posted earlier the prior week, Karl & I were looking forward to fishing this year’s LA 1 Slamboree (put on by the Lafayette Kayak Fishing Club). And while we both got to fish it, the day did not go as planned. We knew we’d be dealing with a...

RICKS CABARET/PUGLIA’S SPORTING GOODS TOURNAMENT 2018 – CLOSE, BUT NO CIGAR

by Scott Myers | Jul 5, 2018 | Event Coverage, Fishing, Fishing Tournament, Tournaments, Wrap Ups

This tournament is one of those “only-in-Louisiana” type experiences – sponsored by the Bourbon St Cabaret Ricks, and featuring plenty of the Ricks entertainers.  It was pretty incredibly hot that day, which might explain the almost complete...

New York is Growing

by Justin Hausner | Jun 23, 2018 | Event Coverage, Fishing, Fishing Tournament, Tournaments

For the past few years the tournament kayak fishing scene has been very lacking within the state of New York compared to other states around our region. With such a short, unpredictable season here in NY, it has always been our theory that people just weren’t that...

Kayak Fishing and Cleaning Up

by Anthony Shingler | Mar 31, 2018 | Fishing

Next time you fish take a look at the shore lines… What do you see? You probably see some sort of trash floating or washed onto the shore. Recently, a friend of mine and I went out on a fishing trip to pre-fish for the Kayak Bass Fishing National Championship and just...

2017 Colorado Kayak Fishing Club Bass Series (Part 2 of 3)

by Scott Brands | Mar 8, 2018 | Event Coverage, Fishing, Fishing Tournament, Tournaments, Wrap Ups

With the first kayak tournament under my belt, it was time to see if Boyd Lake was a fluke or if I could keep the momentum going at a lake I’ve never been to before: Chatfield Reservoir. Chatfield, unlike Boyd, was more of a drive for me. Whereas Boyd was about 3...

In 2017 the kayak fishing clubs of Alabama came together to host a joint event. That event was held on the mighty Coosa River in Wetumpka, Alabama. If you have never been, you have got to go to this destination. It is one of the most gorgeous rivers in the south and...

K.I.S.S

by ericboyd | Sep 27, 2017 | Events, Fishing, Fishing Subjects, Fishing Tournament, Internationalisation, Rigging, United States

It is easy to overthink tournament day. It is just as easy to transform a kayak into a floating tackle box to make room for my overthought. I’ve been there on multiple occasions. I never know if there will be a frog bite in January. Heck, I might even have to...

Road Trip to Central Ohio

The excitement of hitting the road on the way to Erie for our Kayak Anglers kickoff event it made the impending cancellation even worse- I still managed to get some fishing in skirting some nasty weather which ultimately left my fingers and toes about half functional....

New Obsessions

So what does a poor pro-staffer do while waiting for the last month and half (grrr) for the waters to become fishable on his home river? You can only rearrange tackle boxes and bags so many times, and clean, lube, and restring the main reels until the child-bride...

My craziest experience kayak fishing (so far)

by Jon Hummel | Apr 2, 2017 | Coosa, Event Coverage, Events, Fishing, Fishing Tournament, Tournaments

I don’t know about you, but growing up, my granddad could spin some serious fish tales. The story I’m about to share with you might seem like one of those tales, told late at night around the campfire to the amazement and awe of grandkids. However, my...
