Kayak angling is a rapidly growing sport as more and more shore anglers are realising the benefits a kayak can offer them in terms of being able to access areas otherwise difficult to get to - this results in more fishing time and more fish not to mention the added benefits of exercise and the beautiful scenery encountered whilst exploring the different waterways - Sit-on style kayaks by virtue of their safe double hull designs and stability have become primarily the kayaks of choice for the sport.
