Look out Bassmasters, here comes the little plastic boats! This month 4 US Hobie Fishing Team members will compete in the first ever Kayak Fishing World Championship! The US team will compete against Hobie Fishing Teams from Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, and Australia. For more details about the kayak fishing tournament check out the following press release from Hobie.

One thing folks ask me quite a bit is “What’s the best kayak I should get?” Since the variables are so complex, there’s no simple, cut and dry answer. It’s almost like asking someone what sort of shoes to buy. I’m sure that any kayak fishing guide or pro angler will tell you to get the kayak that they use because, chances are, they’re on a kayak manufacturers pro staff and that’s what they’re supposed to do.
