Offshore Kayak Fishing: Surf, Swell, and Safety

Ocean kayak fishing is an absolute blast but the challenging conditions of the Pacific Ocean can make it dangerous as well. Here I cover the skills and equipment anglers need to have the safest trip possible on the big pond. In addition, I discuss swell vs wind waves, swell conditions, and how swell and wind waves can interact to create potential hazards for kayak anglers.
