When your going fishing, you must have a backup plan... If you can't catch anything because the fish have lockjaw then what else can you do to enjoy the experience.

We always spice up our adventures in some way and one thing we always make sure of is that we see the sunrise, the best part of the day. Just doing this will make your entire trip worth it. Its breathtaking and memorable.

This time I thought I would surprise Evie with some Pancakes, cooked on the Kayak, something we haven't tried before. Theres nothin we can't do so we gave it a crack, after sunrise. Wow it was awesome! We anchored up beside each other, connected by some fish lip grippers haha and a hockey strap attached to some muddy thing sticking out of the water.

I brought the following:

Gas Cooker, with Gas

Canola oil spray

Pancake flipper

Lighter

Pancake Mix - Make sure you add the water and give it a shake before you get in the Kayak.

serving plate - in this case was our bait chopping board haha!

Maple syrup. OMG have you tried real Canadian maple Syrup??!?!?! Add it to your bucket list NOW

I set up the gas cooker between my legs in my Viking Espri Kayak and to make it more comfortable I stretched my legs out to Evie's Kayak (thanks Evie) Pancakes were amazing!!

so we were fishing the North Pine River this time, launched at Leis Park, located on leis Parade, I also scoped out another launch spot on the other side of the river at Sweeney Reserve.

Firstly we paddled down stream, towards the sunrise. Lots of fish jumping around int he morning Early...none of them were hungry.

we paddled a fair way down, fishing with all types of soft plastics along the way with no luck, looks like perfect flatty waters . Then we decided to head back and fish the way back upstream past our launch point, still no luck.

Out comes back up plan no 2 - Papaya. This was amazing. yummmmmmmmmmm

All round a good day, few hooligans getting around at the launch point when we left at lunch time but all good!

Heres the video from the day:

About Hookasistaup.

Sarah Horgan

Howdy I'm Sarah (aka Ned) and I have been fishing since I was a young girl. My Grandfather, Dad and Brother are the men responsible for my fishing passion and also the men who taught me to fish from a young age.

Evelyn and I started fishing together in April 17 and realised we were pro's, out-fishing men on most occasions, haha. On our first fishing adventure we came up with the crazy Idea of 'The Fishtail Sistas', and soon enough Hookasistaup was born.

I love the adrenaline rush, feeling your heart pound in your chest when you get a bite or you hook a good size fish. I love making people realise that girls can catch fish too, and we can also kill and gut them (why is everyone always so surprised?). I love inspiring other women to get out there and give it a go too, fishing isn't just for men so go get your hands dirty and enjoy the adventure. You never know, it might change your life, just as it has for us!

Gday I'm Evie and I have only recently just found my love for fishing. I never grew up fishing but it has now become a big part of my life! I still remember the first ever fish I caught and from that moment I was hooked. I love that fishing teaches you that some days you'll catch something big and some days you won't, but always be thankful for nature, the sun in the sky, the way the moon reflects on the water and my best mate beside me. No matter if its hot as hell or cold like Antarctica I'm willing to get out there and give it a crack. It isn't always about what fish we bring home but about getting out there making memories, having fun, loving every minute and sharing our adventures with you all. And yes I know I fish like a girl!
