Finally made it out in the kayak. Fished the point at Brockdale Park. Birds were working the shad from above; White Bass were working the shad from below. Used a Fly Rod and a bow mounted rod holder to fish a tandem crappie jig and tube fly. Lots of fun with most bites were on the tube fly! Video of the action.

Nice I have front mounted rod holder that I use to troll with but I have found for me its easier to turn it to face the side. I use a spinning rod to troll but I have a fly rod holder as well. Never thought to troll with it cause its my only fly rod, I'd be worried about breaking it somehow. I'm not that graceful.... lol ...thats a nice way of saying it. Liked the action you were getting out there. I've been wanting to go as soon as I get home from vacation. Was gonna head over to Lavonia park and try there.

Finally made it out in the kayak. Fished the point at Brockdale Park. Birds were working the shad from above; White Bass were working the shad from below. Used a Fly Rod and a bow mounted rod holder to fish a tandem crappie jig and tube fly. Lots of fun with most bites were on the tube fly! Video of the action. Dusted off the surfcasting gear and headed to the point at Brockdale Park on Lavon. Short on time so no kayaking. Still was able to reach out to where they were from the bank using surfcasting gear. Went with Sabiki Flies and hooked up with White Bass. But, lost the rig to a snag. Will have to tie more! Switched to Crappie Jigs, Tube Jigs, and various fishing flies. Caught more on them; lost count after 20.Only four or five were keepers, the remainder were undersized. Still lots of fun surfcasting without the surf! Today's Video.

Did some kayak fishing at Brockdale Park (Lavon) Saturday morning. Things started out slow but did manage three keeper White Bass and a number of undersized ones once we found the pattern. Fun stuff! Saturday's Video.

Made it back to the point at Brockdale Park (Lavon). Caught them mainly on Slabs and Crappie Jigs this time. Fishing partner lost her fishing pole; used a handline we keep in our life jackets for backup. Worked well for her. Lost count after 20 caught using the handline. Sunday's Video.

Put in at the South Ramp Sunday and fished windy conditions Managed to get four Crappie. Made a couple of videos to answer a Readers question on how the Featherlite kayak fishes... Went out this evening and managed three White Bass at Brockdale. Much calmer today compared to yesterday!

I see you fish Brockdale Park a lot, any particular reason ? Seems like the areas off 78 would be more accessible. Just asking.
I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed. Conscience never acquits, it either accuses or excuses.

Still working on the video from yesterday. May combine it with the fishing we do this weekend. Did put another video on a prototype fish stringer. Will see how it works this weekend!
