Is fishing any good during winter? I want to buy a kayak within the next 2 weeks but should i hold off untill spring / summer time?
Better than summer. Check the inshore reports out, the fishing is hot right now.
Probably the biggest misconception about fishing this time of year is that it isnt any good. Probably a good thing for the guys that know the truth.
fishing is great - the kayaking is more difficult though. You will be facing harsher conditions and colder water temps. You should be very (very) comfortable with your kayak and have the appropriate safety + water gear + clothes, and be very good at falling out and getting back into your kayak before fishing too much later in the winter…
