11 rods on a kayak... wow! AKFF member 'onemorecast' has created an interesting thread which is asking fellow yak fishing comrades what their golden rule for kayak fishing is, and the responses are already pretty enlightening. It has highlighted the difference in attitude with certain yak anglers, which is something I very much sit on the fence with. Some guys go for a minimal approach to how many rods they take - and this makes a lot of sense - whereas others shoot for the maximum, which can also make a lot of sense. There are many reasons for and against and I think these will be raised in the thread. Personally speaking, I've gone from using one rod, to two, to four and have now settled on 3 as the magic number for me. If I was continually fishing just the one area I'd almost certainly step down to 2, but given I often move from estuary to ocean or bay in the same trip, my fishing needs change a lot. So 1 flick stick for Bream and Flathead is required. I also like to have a mid weight rod for casting or trolling medium - heavy lures as well as one stronger, meaner stick for trolling for pelagics. 3 rods is easily managed and gives me plenty of options.
