Location: Maple Grove, MN | I was wondering if anyone has ever thought about Muskie fishing with a kayak. There are now kayaks that are designed specially for fishing and there a decent number of accessories. Stand-up frames, outriggers, rod holders, fish finder mounting kits and tackle boxes are all available. And they cost a whole lot less than a boat.
While it would certainly be nicer to fish in a boat, especially on a larger lake, it might be a lot of fun to fish out of a kayak on smaller lakes or rivers. It might even allow easier access to some lakes - especially if there is no public ramp.
Here are some links to give you all an idea what I'm talking about:

Here is a link to fishing kayaks on Bass Pro. The nicest ones are the stand-up ones near the bottom of the page.:

Looks like fun to me.
