Title: Recommendations....yak fish anywhere in America
Post by: Widgeon on June 10, 2017, 07:48:29 PM: Thinking about throwing my yak and tent in my truck and taking a road trip somewhere in September. Not sure where....Texas? Florida? Maybe Wisconsin or MN? Looking for recommendations for good yak fishing areas about that time of year. Advice appreciated!

Yep. Why dodge hurricanes and frosty mornings?

That would require more than one September.

Don't laugh... but how about South Dakota? Lake Oahe and Lake Francis Case have some of the best walleye, smallmouth, and northern pike fishing in the world. Not sure what time of year is best, but my brother fishes the latter regularly and always catches a boatload of smallies. He says it's kayak-able, although you'd likely be the only kayak on the lake. I want to take my AI to Oahe (which, btw, also has a bonus salmon population), but, sadly, it looks like like I won't make it this year...
