| Bare with me.....how about tying a rope onto the handle of a empty Tide detergent bottle? Fill it with sand or rocks and drag it behind you in currant. If it gets hung up (being rounded it shouldn't) worse case you cut the rope. You wouldn't be out hardly anything cash wise.
Just a thought. |

Would have to be on a trolley system that brings the can to the back of the kayak. Or you flip. There's a bunch of options out there like this. I dont like it because it means more monkeyfcking |

| Don't plan on kayaking anytime soon, but was wondering what landing net were u guys using. I'm looking for a smaller more compact net that could be used from shore. Not looking at a net for 50 inchers, got one of those, even though I don't use it much,lol, but fish up to 40? kdawg |

I'm going with a Boga. Figure any fish that is deeply hooked, will cut hooks quick. Losing fish and not getting a pic, not a big deal.
*and no, I have not seen the successeses necessary to try these ideas out

I've used a short 1 piece Ranger and was happy with it. But either I left it at a landing, it got stolen out of my bed, or somehow flew out my bed. Using a short telescoping Beckman right now because it was the only thing locally available. For $38 my only complaint is the bag could be deeper but it's gotten me by.
HOWEVER- I think this winter I'll be ordering a Whisker Seekers XTN. I think it might also suit your needs as well. |
