See you using a stringer to hold ur fish, which is fair enough in a kayak however some yrs ago I was fishing off the coast in a 16’ boat 🚤 & had a string bag of reef fish & mackerel. Been hanging there most of that morning. I stood up to walk around the boat, stretch the legs when I saw a big f’n “SUBMARINE” cruise along the side of the boat in the swell & had the realisation I was looking at a 15ft Tiger sizing up our fish 😳. Yelled out n mate dragged the bag back into the boat. I don’t know, but if he had got our bag that shark would have given us a good bloody shake up. 😳😳🎣🎣🦈🦈 I reckon try a short handled gaff for the kayak.

Lose those silly light wire bass hooks and put some big heavy saltwater hooks on em. Might even use siwash and a swivel dropper. Also, look at the Storm shad lures. VERY nice baits. Edit: If you aren't sure on size and don't want to gaff it, do NOT put it in the gill plate, gaff through the lower lip as gently as you can. You can also make a lip gaff with a large barbless hook. (10/0 at least)
