In this issue of Kayak Angler, we release our annual Boat and Gear Buyer’s Guide with a detailed look at the Kaku Zulu iGuide, Ascend 12T and NRS Pike Pro. Once you have the boat and gear, learn how to catch largemouth bass, false albacore and snook. Discover secrets to catching trophy speckled trout in one of the Gulf Coast’s best destinations. Then, visit Minot, North Dakota to chase big bass with our wandering photojournalist, Dustin Doskocil. If that’s not enough bass talk, our expert anglers take you on a tour of the best largemouth lakes in America. Follow us for a look at the latest motorized kayaks including tips for installing and powering a kayak motor. On the tackle side, we take a deep dive into fluorocarbon for finesse fishing and the latest rod and reel combos worthy of serious fishing. End the experience with a laugh as our resident humorist Andy Whitcomb reveals some of his unconventional generators of hits, UGH for short.
