Oh Yeah.....kayak also works great for taking out large baits from shore for shark fishing........MUCH better than the inflatable rafts I use to use

.... Once I was taking a bait out on a raft and about 300' off the beach the line came tight and pulled the bait and hear this 'spasissssssssssss' sound..........one of the hooks punctured my lil life raft......and I was going down fast...it was right at dusk to boot.......then I start thinking...'you dumba%#!!!" I had just paddled out 300' with a 5 pound , bloody tuna head under my chin (didn't want to loose it), and NOW I've got to frantically (sharks like that motion) paddle back throught my own chum slick

.....WITH ONE HAND!......cause the other hand was pinching the hole shut....worked about as well as the lil boy with his finger in the **** (no comments please

)........I got in with about 1.5 pounds of air left in my digny and because I didn't use enough weight on my bait......IT beat me in to shore

...needless to say I got skunked that eve.......
