Kayak Fishing Paradise! ft. Paradox lake Adirondacks

June is a great mouth to catch lots of bass. lots of top water action on glass water in beautiful north country as fish start to travel deep, lots of trial and error but that is what works! hard work but smart work to accomplish big bass over and over again.

Very impressive and your patience is recognized. My friends and I have fished Paradox for years and it seems the best time there is with a slight overcast. Tells us more about the Kayak and its stability. Regards Roger Wydler formerly from Long Island and now I reside in Florida.

The reef between Birch and Grass Islands is good for Northern Pike

I've caught some nice largemouths in the narrows and the first time I took my Topwater 106 out was on Paradox and I hooked into a 32" northern on 8 lb mono and a good old Rapala # 9 floater in black & silver.

I hit Paradox this morning. Conditions weren't great because of the front that just came through but I did pull in a 16" largemouth on a whopper plopper off the beach across from the state launch. Also caught a nice fat 16" smallie trolling with a shallow running Rapala-like jerk bait and then had one right upside the kayak and did the exact same thing you did, fumbling with the net, letting some slack into the line and then watching the fish swim away.
It was a huge smallie, at least 20". Dang! LOL! It took half the spool on two runs and then 1/4 on the last run. Okay, that's probably an exaggeration but it did strip a lot of line! Thought he was played out after the last run and didn't pay enough attention. It was a really nice smallie!
Both the smallies were off Crawford Island and within 5 minutes of each other. I would have stayed longer but the wind kicked up around 10 AM. Almost whitecaps!
By the way, nice setup on your yak! 🙂
