What to expect
You'll paddle out on a specialised pedal kayak—no standing or traditional paddling required, which keeps your hands free for fishing. The guide walks you through tackle setup, how to work different lure types, and what species respond to various presentations. Expect to cover spot-selection strategy, fish-finder operation, and practical troubleshooting. You'll spend time actually casting and retrieving, with feedback on your technique. Conditions depend on tide and weather; the guide adjusts approach accordingly.
Good to know
Moderate fitness required; pedalling and casting demand sustained effort. Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Public transport nearby. Bring sunscreen, hat, and polarised sunglasses. Morning or afternoon sessions available.
