Seaguar on the Water

The salmon species are a well-regarded fish species for both their sport and excellent table fare. While native to the North Atlantic and Pacific Ocean, they can be found in the Great Lakes and have legions of fans fishing for them yearly. 

Many aspects of fishing relate to pursuing fish from boats, but fishing from shore is a major draw to some anglers. It's especially popular in the northeastern states for a favorite regional quarry: the striped bass. 

Part of what makes the redfish so popular is their affinity to bite. They're generally a willing predator, making them a favorite target for inshore anglers no matter where they live. 

The growing popularity of fishing has been well documented in the last two years and one of the fastest growing segments, even before the pandemic, was kayak fishing. There are many reasons for the increased interest, including the lower cost versus purchasing a boat and motor as well as the chance to fish smaller waters and access areas that boats cannot get to.

America’s Pacific Northwest offers stunning natural beauty with lush forests, immense mountains, and many beautiful lakes, streams, rivers, and the Pacific Ocean. Opportunities abound for the outdoorsman as both fishing and hunting are exceptional for many different species, but in this region, salmon, trout and steelhead are king and generate the most attention from resident anglers and visitors looking to experience what Washington and Oregon have to offer.

The Gulf States are an inshore angler's dream with miles and miles of shoreline perfect for the inshore saltwater angler. Florida is an especially good location for inshore fans, as it has 1,350 miles of coastline, most of it ideal habitat for inshore saltwater species.
