We recently ask our good friends at Bending Branches what they feel is important when selecting a paddle for kayak fishing. Andrew Stern, Marketing Specialist for Bending Branches, responded with his four key paddle attributes.

In the video, Andrew discusses elements he feels every kayak angler should think about when purchasing his or her next paddle.

Video Summary:

When purchasing a new paddle every kayak angler consider:

1. Paddle features (or as Andrew calls them, “Game Changers”)

2. Blade profile

3. Paddle weight

4. Paddle length.

You can find out more about selecting your paddle length by visiting the Bending Branches size chart http://bendingbranches.com/find-your-size.
