I wrote “Birth of a Sport: Kayak Fishing” in 2016 about the state of kayak fishing after the 1st KBF National Championship. The article was originally published in the spring 2016 issue of Pacific Standard magazine as part of a series entitled “Economy of Scales.”

The file below is a PDF copy of the main text, without the photos included in the original on-line publication. A link to the archived copy, with photos, is included in the file.
