Trout fishing in a kayak – Lake Ontario tributaries…

Andrew Zioto, one of our new friends that we met at the Western NY KFA Meet and Greet last night went out in his kayak today and caught this nice brown trout. Andrew is an experienced kayak fisherman in this region. He has also innovated some useful techniques for landing and handling larger fish which he shared with us at the meeting. We’ll be doing some fishing with Andrew very soon…

I have been a dedicated freshwater kayak angler for the past seven years. I had fished off and on my whole life, but fishing from a kayak unleashed the beast. I earned my Ph.D. in Zoology from Oklahoma State University in 2002, and am an Associate Professor in Biological Sciences at a large private university in Western New York. I helped to co-founder the Western New York Kayak Association, regularly blog for www.fishgator.com and am a MEMBER OF TEAM MALIBU KAYAKS pro-staff. I reside in the Finger Lakes with my wife and two children.
