Some of us live in warmer climes, so kayak fishing and outdoor recreation can happen almost year-round. For most of us, however, now is the time to start planning to visit your favorite fishing holes.
Start with thorough inspection of your kayak, all your equipment, and rods and reels. Check those bungees and ropes for wear.
