Try trolling some big flat wings tied on circle hooks. They have a very seductive action when trolled from the kayak. At first, with flies tied on conventional hooks, I was getting hits but few hookups while paddling I think because of the inability to set the hook because both hands were busy with the paddle but the circle hooks work great. As the fish hit and turn they hook themselves allowing you to adjust the boat, set the paddle down and fight the fish.
