yellow door 1 1,664 Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 The arrival of those fake Zmans has coincided with a bit of a dip in fish activity - both the Eps and red fin are being a bit fussy. I was throwing around some unweighted sand worms at both species this evening. That seemed to perk them up a bit. But my standard mojiko worms are too thin to be durable enough to use on species with so many short strikes. So I searched for some more fake ZMANS in a sandworm style. The swimming action on these is bound to be better than stuff Ive used before https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003280088891.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.14.21ef1802FYSdPq Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yellow door 1 1,664 Posted Saturday at 09:46 AM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 09:46 AM What kind of idiot buys a cheap inflatable kayak to fish out of - This sort of idiot Ive already fished out of an inflatable belly boat without putting holes in it - so I figured with the temps dropping, I may aswell get a yak aswell. Foot room sux bad but the seat is super comfy. I was chucking big lures for the first 2 hours without a hit - So I swapped down to a 1.5 inch paddle tail. That didnt do much but at least I got a little reddy - Then I decided to troll the 1.5 inch for the last 50m back to the car - thats when the yella scoffed it bjorn2fish 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I saw a bloke with a cordless usb rechargeable pump the other day - he reckons he can blow up 3 kayaks off one charge - the thing was about as big as a pack of smokes So theres plenty of options out there for the lazy man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
