Kayak fishing is incredibly popular, and FishTalk has always served kayak anglers a healthy heap of how-to/where-to fishing intel in both feature articles and the Paddler's Edge section. This book is a compilation of the Paddler’s Edge columns we’ve published to date (excluding a few that were excerpted from books, out of respect to those authors), along with the kayak-specific features we’ve run. On these pages we cover four major components of fishing from a kayak: general fishing tactics, species-specific tactics, where to go kayak fishing in the region, and kayak rigging and gear. We’re confident you’ll enjoy FishTalk’s Guide to Kayak Fishing the Chesapeake and Mid-Atlantic. Good luck kayak fishing, and we hope the words on these pages help you catch more, bigger fish!
