CAN'T TOUCH THIS Kayak anglers can do what no other angler can do


I can carry my boat on my head. I can fit my boat on a compact. I can crash my boat into rocks and pilings. One of the best parts of fishing from a kayak is bragging about all the crazy things we do in a plastic boat. Kayak Angler asked readers for their favorite kayak-fishing-only skills. Here’s what they told us. BEN DUCHESNEY


Only a kayak angler can say he has five boats in his shed. —Derek Bushnell, Lake Charles, Louisiana


Only a kayak angler can catch freshwater, inshore and offshore fish all in one day without spending a single cent on gas to power the boat. —Tj Pierce, Titusville, Florida


Catch a catfish and use it as a trolling motor. —Jessica Allen, Troy, Texas


Throw my boat in the back of a Toyota 4Runner, float a section of river with no boat access and carry the boat back out through mosquito-infested woods. —Billy Moore, Tryon, Oklahoma


Only a kayak angler can take a GoPro video while fighting a fish with one hand, gaff the fish with the other, pedal his boat with his feet and give a blow- by-blow commentary of the entire fight and still land the fish. —Steve Cornell, Crestview, Florida


Make a 600-mile round trip by car to fish an offshore fishing spot, fish all weekend and come back on $50 worth of gas. No way an ocean-worthy motorboat can do that. —Rudy Tsukada, Anchorage, Alaska


I don't have to explain all the added cost of a boat to my wife. —Nate Land, Brownwood, Texas


My kids' kayaks can double as beds in their bedroom. —Wesley Bivens, Lexington, Tennessee
