    I would think that you could easily get out to the K can area during jigging season and get some fish. I would want a rotating beacon though..that is definitely a high traffic area. May even take the ferry to Put in Bay or Kelly's island and be able to hang on downwind side of the island and paddle up some eyes with bottom bouncers or TT 40's out each side. Only thing with that though it will be tough to know how fast you are paddling. Then when you hook a fish on one rod I am not sure how you will keep your boat from spinning while reeling and tangling up the other line? I am sure that is the fun part to figure out though.

    the thing with the hobie is what they call the mirage drive it is foot propelled so you are hand free all the time other than moving the rudder and with the fishfinder/gps i have it is pretty easy controlling speeds.

    Add a flag to your yak. Pick your days and go early or late for less traffic. take a,buddy Sounds like your rigged good already. You'll get some strange looks and even more when u show your catch. I dont fish the islands, I'm down between cranberry and Rocky river. I run everything but dipseys on mine. Have a ball catching lots of fish and get some excercise in too. In the end just Make yourself visible to the guys who may not be paying attention and use your head. Ive already drove to lake and never launched. Have fun and post some pics.

    I have a friend in Fla. who is bringing me a pedal fishing kayak. He is a pro and has fished the ocean and caught many tuna off of his kayak. Be very aware of the weather and do not over-estimate your ability. Go for it! This is the same common sense for all boaters.

    Jeff, Dave sent me the pictures, nice fish. You two are about the only ones I would think of catching walleye, trolling RR's in Kayaks.

    I was gonna run spoons but the cranks were working. we worked a pretty tight area for the four fish. Was great getting him into them on his maiden voyage. I can run about anything but dipseys off my yak. (they sink when i have to reel in a fish) I do even have a mini offshore board but havent used it yet.
