Kingfisher yaking: June 2010
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Friday, 25 June 2010. Well the time had arrived and the Mull of Galloway was the destination. We arrived Thursday morning and made camp at Sandhead, the weather was looking good and the anticipated fishing was causing excitement. First launch was at Ardwell where the fishing wasn`t as good as anticipated, some Mackerel, a few doggy`s and the odd Smoothy were all the sea could offer, not a sign of Tope. Friday saw us launch at Terally Bay, now this was a good day to say the least. On arriving back at camp...

Kingfisher yaking: July 2010
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, 25 July 2010. Well the time had arrived and the weather wasn`t too bad, though the sea state was giving concern to everyone. The Brigg had not been fishing well, but 39 Kayak fisherman turned up to try their best. On reaching the car park I heard a recall on the vhf, the sea was now really snotty and the match was cut short and anglers were requested to return to shore. 1 Martin Lamb Cod 5-4-8. 2 Ken Oliver Pollock 5-3-4. 3 Ian Pickering Cod 4-7-0. 4 Paul Hodgson Pollock 4-3-8. The following morn...

Kingfisher yaking: C Kayaks Malachite
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010/02/c-kayaks-malachite-review.html
Sunday, 7 February 2010. Having spent a long time searching the internet for a new fishing kayak, I finally made a choice. I was looking for something made of polyethylene, that had a characteristic kayak hull and plenty of below deck stowage. In the back of my mind was also finding something that might be marketable in the UK. My choice was the C Kayaks Malachite made by GW Industries in South Africa. Http:/ www.c-kayak.co.za/catalogue malachite.htm. Rod holders were the narrow flush mounted type, again...

Kingfisher yaking: PFD Safety knife and Strobe light
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2011/02/pfd-safety-knife-and-strobe-light.html
Saturday, 12 February 2011. PFD Safety knife and Strobe light. Well I thought it was about time I added to my blog as there`s been no fishing for me since October. I decide to checkout some of my safety equipment and make sure it was ready for the coming season. All the following items are now in there third year of use and holding up quite well for things that come into contact with sea water. The back of the PFD has a large pocket designed to take a hydro pack, though I personally have never used one.

Kingfisher yaking: Hugh`s fish fight
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010/11/hughs-fish-fight_16.html
Tuesday, 16 November 2010. Whittingstall has started a new campaign, following the success of his Chicken adventure with the main supermarkets, he has now taken up the gauntlet in the name of fish disgards. Battling against the European government, he attended a meeting in Brussels today to fight the corner for wasted fish in the Common fisheries policy reform meeting. It`s a full frontal attack on this diabolical waste, with a website for people to sign up to the cause, sign up here. Berkley NANO FIL - ...

Kingfisher yaking: March 2010
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 28 March 2010. Having waited some time to get the new yak on the water for some serious paddling, the oppertunity came with a weekend on the North East coast. Saturday saw a few friends and myself out of North bay at Scarborough, the weather was rain with a slight wind and the sea had about a foot of swell so nothing that could not be handled. After 20 mins or so, we decided to put a bit of recovery practice in, so I capsized the yak and took the plunge. I stopped along the way and beached my yak...

Kingfisher yaking: Safety leash`s
http://kingfisheryaking.blogspot.com/2010/02/safety-leashs.html
Wednesday, 10 February 2010. There are three types of leash that I have when yak fishing. Paddle, Rod and personal. The leash`s I use while kayak fishing are the Crack of dawn paddle leash and the Crack of dawn accessory leash. Both are very well made and of the coiled construction. Available from H2o Kayaks. My personal leash is homemade. These leashes aren`t the cheapest, but if you only like to but things once these are the business. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Sunday, 31 January 2010. Well blogs seem to be the in thing so I thought I`d start one. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I`m just the usual shore angler who wanted to increase his cast, so I bought a kayak. View my complete profile. C Kayaks Malachite review. Road Trip - Wales and Cornwall (Part 1).
