"Cod on the Tyne" In Kayak

[northeast1]

You lot drift or just drop anchor?

Would think you would drift at some speed in a yak? what ever your doing you lot seem to do well.

Sound like a busy couple of hours nice one lads. i will have to get me self
a yak.

Northeast! think a saw you go out in your avor looks a fast boat!
We either drift or anchor depends on the wind/tide the anchors we use are not that big and we use a trolley system to get them to the front or back of the yak and a quick release system to enable us to unhook it in seconds if needed leaving the anchor line on a float for easy retreive. We also use a sea drogue for a nice slow drift when needed.It does not take much to anchor a kayak, even a stuck aberdeen hook would stop you dead! but all you do is paddle uptide of your stuck gear and 99% of the time it just comes loose.

Prob was as i seen some yaks about 300 yards from the end of the pier land side. She not that fast but had opened her up when going past to warm the oil for a oil change (12knots at 2800rpm)

It was a nice day with a lazy roll but so cold.

what a great way 2 fish

Not a great way its the greatest way to fish. Only 1 blank all year and loads of big bags. Out saturday morn with a few lads so should have a few more photos etc. The down side is it spoils your shore fishing ive only been out 4 times since jan.

Another 5 - 10 yrs and this type of fishing will be very common...... watch this space.....
