I have a short video of this summers grind on the kayak. I fished new areas, got skunked a few times, and located some bass in the HEAT. Electronics this time of year are a great tool and I sure did utilize mine.

Gear
Note: A lot of the equipment I use is not made anymore including the Kayak. This just goes to show that you do not need the best or the newest gear available to catch fish.
