Every Ultralight Angler NEEDS THIS For Kayak Fishing!

I took the kayak out during a fall transition day to discover the lake had flipped over and there was a major algae bloom impacting the clarity of the water. The shallow shorelines almost looked like an oil-based paint which turned anything that touched it green (my kayak included).

As I pedaled offshore, the water clarity improved, so that is where I felt the greatest confidence in catching fish. It wasn't long before I started to mark some schooling Crappie on my fish finder. That is when I decided to bust out a product which every kayak angler should own... A MARKER BUOY!

These buoys are extremely helpful for all boat anglers as they allow you to create vantage points offshore. This can help you hold a location or a breakline effectively. For kayak anglers, they are even more important due to the nature of smaller watercraft being impacted by wind/current heavily.

Overall, I never caught any big fish that day, but it was a great time on the water and I always enjoy a good offshore Crappie bite. No complaints!

I bought some marker buoys this time last year. Definitely worth the investment.

My dad used to use bouys out at the drop off on our home lake and move between them for mid-summer, midday speck fishing. Always seemed to work out great. Good tool.

Likely a bloom of Cyanobacteria or some kind of phytoplankton (could be diatoms, eukaryotic green algae, etc). If you had any recent rain this could contribute to them, as the rapid mixing of water coupled with agricultural runoff providing a large supply of nutrients can lead to a large bloom.

Good video Ethan even if it's dink crappies. I purchased the 2 pack of neon green ones many moons ago. I like them a lot to reference our location for the drift and jig. Some of the forest preserve lakes near us have sunken fish attractors and brush piles that aren't on their maps and guides.

Great video. I’m adding marker buoy to my shopping list.

Nice video. Lots of fish. I haven’t found any crappie yet this year. Sure looking like fun.

Great video ethan ❤ always enjoying the content

Good video, thanks for the ideas. I like the markers til the rude folks pull up next to you, hit the waypoint and swamp you as they leave not saying a word.

I want to try out some braid for my ultralight rod. Is the Spro finesse braid still your favorite? I was thinking of trying the Phenix iron feather braid but I can’t find many reviews on it. Thanks

That’s about the size crappie I’ve been finding with the kicker 12” Blacknose.
