There's a lot of insane yakfishing pics out there that make me so friggin' stoked. This one particularly makes me want to yakfish the big blue every time I see it. I can just feel it. Just got done bouncing through the surf, the yak's getting that glide, it's almost silent except for the wake from your kayak and the waves on a nearby boiler.. you can see all your favorite spots just on the horizon. The lights just coming up as the sun rises through the fog and cold as hell... but there's no other place you'd rather be. I love the CURE!!!!

So what's your fav. pic? Post it and let us know why.

I kinda like this shot I took of RevoRoy in the old blue Trident.

Simply put..... "Heaven"
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land.  It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Those are real nice photos and all, but where are the fish?  Not even a bent rod.... :angry7:

I kind of like these from Owen's first kayak fishing trip..no bendo or fish in them either.

:D Funny how so far our favs seem to be the ones w/o bendo action or fish.

Great pics B! The matching clothes are classic.

My favorites tend to look at the extreme or odd ball side of things.

I think Allen can comment on this one  ;D




I can't find my other favorite on the web anymore, although I'm sure it's out there. I call it 'Yakzilla'. I'm sure many of you have seen it. It looks like a yak on the shore of Mission Bay and it has about a dozen rods mounted to it.

Hah, that's actually my shark that Chris has on his yak!!!  I didn't want it in my lap because I got about 60 pounds on Chris.  Look how low that kayak is already sitting.  In hindsight, I wish I had tried it.  I don't have any good solo pics like that save the one I'm yanking on the tail, which really doesn't show the shark much.

Wouldn't say it's my favorite yakfishing picture, but it is the only one I have taken of anyone cranking on a fish.   So, by default it gets posted.  ;D

Here's a BS with a Sturg-bendo.

Good friend of mine Pat.  Fish dont get much prettier.  Not my fav pic but my fav fish, wish it was me right now.
