any way was thinking of going tope fishing with them or is that just nuts? there is a few places nearby that they are but are beyond casting distance was thinking of using the kayak to bring the baits out


you can fish for Tope from them and it is one of the most exciting things I've ever done!

And Conger!
though unlike Tope I've yet to have one in side the yak.Use barbless hooks and unhook at side of yak--great fun!

Excellent Richi,

Have you or an of the other lads ever put together a species list of fish tha have been caught from a Yak?

Might be an Idea to show all you can catch before they go to the Main Course TOPE Umm Umm!

Have a look out for a new supplier in west cork.
Will have a big range of sit on tops.
Try typing in bantry bay canoes and see what you get.

Depends on a lot of things daithi but your surely looking at around €1000 to get a yak, paddle, some safety gear ie; PFD, wetsuit, cag.

Sea Angler kayaks

Postby Kayaker » Mon Jul 16, 2007 7:15 am

Daithi,
A perception Freedom Angler costs €840 and paddles start at €45
The Malibu Mini X costs €649, shorter boat but also very stable.
