What To Do When Lake Levels Are Low But You Want To Go Kayak Fishing... MAKE A CART? [Simple DIY Project Build]

When Light and Easy is not So Light and Easy

Several years ago when drought conditions resulted a number of park and boat ramp closures in the area, I decided to build a kayak cart that would allow me to roll my kayak on wheels instead of carrying it on my shoulders.

My kayak is light and easy to carry from my compact pickup truck to the water's edge normally.  It is not so light or easy when the park gate is closed and the water's edge is much further away.

Build It and You Will Fish

After searching the internet for plans, I came across one plan that someone posted on their Blog (Palmetto Kayak Fishing) that looked simple to build.

I searched further and found a YouTube video (Homemade PVC Kayak Cart) that was similar to the one described in the Blog. Moreover, it provided additional details that convinced me to go ahead and build one.

My Kayak Cart

The end result is posted in the video below. After cutting the PVC to length, it only took me about 30" to assemble it.

I still have some "tweaking" to do but at this point it works... now, just got to find time to breakaway and do some kayak fishing, else will have to wait for the weekend.

The Day Before... Bethany Lakes Trout Stocking [12-14-2014]

[Originally Posted 12-14-2014]

It's the day before the annual rainbow trout stocking at Bethany Lakes in Allen. The Team is anxious to wet a line and hook a little Stocker Trout!

However,  this year the Team will miss tomorrow's fun as they will be attending a graduation ceremony back at Aggieland. The Team will  be in full force in College Station to be sure it is no hoax but one of own is graduating!

That said, for those able to make it tomorrow, the Team suggested posting the video from last year's opening day at Bethany. The video is posted below; do check it out. 

Key items from that day were:

  • PowerBait worked initially but the action slowed but remained steady
  • Gold Super Duper on a steady retrieve did not work
  • Gold Super Duper on a stop and go retrieve worked
  • Trout tended to strike as the lure fluttered down while stopped

Also, last year the weather was sunny and cool; this year it looks like rain and overcast conditions are expected. Not sure how it will affect the fishing; be prepared to switch baits and lures accordingly!

Till next time... Good Luck and Good Fishing!
