I had a great time yak fishing in October. Early there were many Dorado at paddle distance- just east of SC Marina entrance. Then the water cooled and the fish moved out. I am planning another trip in May with a better yak for my ability- a Hobie Outback with pedal power. Legs are stronger than arms if you are an old fart. For anyone interested in the Hobie, I saw several on display in Marine Mart at about US prices. Unfortunately they did not have an Outback model on the floor. I must admit I really like fishing from my bass boat with a butt seat and trolling motor and good standing vision and fish control, but the yak puts you right with the fish. I had one fair size Dorado on a Crocodile jump in the yak with me- treble hooks are scary at close range!
