So I have I a question, I know this is a casual event but Glen is it acceptable to catch bait from the kayak with a conventional rod and reel and then transfer it to the hand line or do we need to fish exclusively with a hand line in order to be eligible to win all the glory? 5

General Fishing Tips / Re: How many of you have 2-rod stamp?« Last post by AlsHobieOutback on April 18, 2024, 02:15:59 PM »Two rod is indispensable to koke, landlocked king, and trout trolling. Which is a majority of my time. Usually one rod shallow and one deep, almost never the same depth or presentation until I’m confidently dialed in.This. It's always a good idea to be running multiple offerings and multiple depths. You spend a long time and distance trolling for them, trying to figure out what they want. Better to use two offerings or depths while covering ground. I don't usually get much of an issue with tangles when I hookup. I keep going with my pedals trying to keep trolling straight as I grab the rod and start reeling trying to keep tension. When the fish starts getting close enough to net is when I turn my rudder towards the fish and try and land it. My other line falls and in deep water I rarely have any issue retrieving it or having my fish get hung up in it. 8
General Fishing Tips / Re: Alameda Rock Wall advice« Last post by Sea-bree on April 18, 2024, 01:10:11 PM »I’ve also tucked into Ballena bay when tracking back to the launch from the south on rough days. I’ve even hooked up on Hali or two under the bridge that you must go beneath to make your way back to the launch area.

Which is a majority of my time. Usually one rod shallow and one deep, almost never the same depth or presentation until I’m confidently dialed in. I like a second rod for striper bait fishing. Not getting your two trolling rods tangled is a skill in and of itself somewhat. Also learning to fight and net a fish while still maintaining a straight line troll, or in close combat type fisheries. Learning how to entice and play double ups too. Sometimes I have to shake the rust off and miss a net job or get impatient while doubled up it costs me a fish, and I know it’s time to brush up on some motor skills.
I don’t use my two rod when river trout/steelhead fishing, bass, or fly fishing though. If that’s what you lean more towards it might not matter that much to get it. |
