Portugal kayak fishing.

 

Rui Carvalho with Team Ocean Kayak sent this story from Portugal:

In the spring the big croakers enter the Tejo River. The fish weigh up to 60 kilograms. We usually fish with softbaits.

We catch these fish in 25 feet of water. They are very strong and fighting them in shallow water is very intense.

When I mark a fish on the fishfinder, my heart races. They can bite anytime!

“Thank God my dad wasn’t a podiatrist,” Ric jokes about following in the footsteps of a famous outdoor writer. After graduating from Radford University and serving two years in Russia with the Peace Corps, Ric returned to Virginia Beach and started writing for The Fisherman magazine, where his dad was editor. When the kayak fishing scene exploded, Ric was among the first to get onboard. His 2007 book, The Complete Kayak Fisherman is one of the first how-to books to introduce anglers to paddle fishing. In 2010, Ric took on the role of editor at Kayak Angler magazine where he covered the latest trends in kayak fishing tactics, tackle, gear and destinations. A ravenous angler, Ric fishes from the mountain to the sea chasing everything from smallmouth bass to striped bass.
