As you have recently read here on YakAngler.com, four U.S. kayak anglers participated in the Hobie Kayak Fishing World Championships held in Australia.  We here at YakAngler are so pleased to be part of this kayak fishing sport that is taking not only a national stage but playing in an international arena.  I recieved this press release from a Hobie spokesperson earlier today and I just had to share.  I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I did.

ICAST this year showcased some pretty cool new products utilizing technology never seen before in the fishing industry.  As a kayak angler I was very excited to check out some of the new rods and reels coming to the market soon. Daiwa has created a revolutionary new product called the T3 Baitcasting Reels.  These reels utilize a new T-Wing and Magforce 3D system, which promise to create longer casting opportunities with a more advanced backlash control.
