Fashion for Fishing Kayakers

February 2, 2007 By: Marshall Cutchin

Why own a fancy kayak if you can’t paddle in sartorial splendor? That’s the question apparently keeping a St. Petersburg Times staff writer up at night. Here are thirteen items that the well-bedecked kayak fisher must have if serious about the sport, including:
“3. Tuf line backing for fly line: With a smaller diameter, Tuf line allows you to nearly double your backing. Cost: 8 cents per yard in bulk.
4. Simms deck sandals: Ideal for wade or boat fishing. Quick-drying strap and heavy-duty rubber bumper toe protection are added benefits. Cost $89.95.”
