Do you think there are any squids at tom ugly's bridge? I've never seen anyone squiding there and I've been having no luck for multiple days :(
@cballzoutdoorsАй бұрын
You need to move to find a patch of them, they move a lot and you normally find a bunch in one spot. I would generally not think an area with strong current rushing past is a would hold them so maybe a bridge like that is a bit too much for them.

If you are sub 90kg the sport will surely do in most conditions. I'm using navionics but cmaps is the other competitor.. I am not sure which is better but they can only be so wrong I guess!

@@cballzoutdoors Thanks mate! I have Lowrance HOOK2 with GPS plotter on board, so phone map would be a good reference to find a right direction. Yeah, I'm comfortable with Hobie Sport. Already tested it near the Bobbin Head Marina with a couple of 50cm flatheads. Maybe I will buy inflatable outriggers later to be more stable offshore, as this kayak is around 10 feet only, but it's wide enough. Thanks again!

I don't and Don't think I will. I calm water it is amazing, I can stand, move around and whatever. But when there is sharp waves like a wake from a boat, it tips a lot and can become unstable. The other kayak would be near impossible to tip but you can't stand or move around as much is all

I've never had an issue, but I imagine quality control could be an issue with cheaper jigs. I've heard bad things but never seen them myself. The other thing with heavier jigs, they can come with hooks more for demersal fishing and are way thinner than what would get used for trophy kings
