Its quite labor intensive to pull plugs with a raft or a toon-
Well, being between 15-19 helped. It was an excuse to expel some of my energy. It definently got tiring though.
At 22 I can pull plugs all day out of our 16ft Aluminum. Not sure I could on the toons anymore.. Damn, I'm getting lazy.
I volunteer at a Salmon Disease lab and a worker there tells me he pulls plugs with great success out of his kayak. Sounds like he might be on to something there.
In conclusion: It can be done with success, but not ideal for long periods of time.
i'm guessing you would just row against the current and let the plug work right in front of you?
fishing kayaks are great for trolling any sort of gear....and there are all sorts of kayaks designed for different kinds of water...

Can i join in on the challenge ?
People rant and rave about the Maglips, but never caught a steelie on one (in fairness, if it doesn't inspire confidence, it gets swapped out)
I highly recommend giving the Mag lips some more water time. I can't even tell you how many vicious takedowns we had last December-March on 'em..
Do you recommend the 3.5 size for tribs like the Clack? Similar to a K11 in size, I believe.
While trolling Nehalem Bay last Seprember, hooked a gigantic cutthroat on a Maglip 4.5. Unfortunaterly, the rear hook got into his gill, so I kept it... I only ever keep mortally wounded SRCs. Didn't measure it, but was around 20"... beast of a cuttie. Only fish I ever caught on a Maglip.
I highly recommend Ed Fast
