I have been fishing from a kayak before it was popular to do so.  When the Hobie Pro Angler came out I knew my dream boat had arrived.  Purchased it last September and have had some unique fishing experiences like the one in my photo.  A 9 lb catfish struck a lure at Lake Oroville and gave me one of my best fishing experiences ever!
