Kayak fishing in Jersey
Andy Benham -author of Discover Kayak Fishing- and a regular contributor in UK angling magazines teamed up with Keith White to get out and about in Jersey kayak fishing some of Keith’s favourite marks using Texas rigs.
Soft plastics and kayaks will get you into places you might never be able to reach on foot.
The use of soft plastic lures first originated in Japan and the USA. In the UK it was in the Jersey that this method first took hold.
The weather was pretty mixed (to say the least) but they still got plenty of time afloat.
Here is Andy’s story.
We run a range of kayak courses for both the sit on top kayak angler and recreational paddler.
