Kayak Angling in Porthleven

Published on September 22, 2007 with 2 Comments

Sadly I have not been on my Kayak yet this September as I am moving house (again) In fact I not done any sea fishing at all. I have heard from a work colleague, who is almost a dedicated kayak angler now that good catches of small Pollock, Mackerel and Garfish are coming in thick and fast at Porthleven.

He is using a Dexter wedge. Casting it, then retrieving just after its touched the bottom. Fish are following it right to the surface and on balanced tackle its proving to be very good sport for him.

I do not know the gear he is using, but he describes it as a light spinning rod and small fixed spool reel. The line is mono of about 15lb breaking strain.
