Bass Fishing with no gas, no trailer either, not even a trolling motor...

ARDMORE, OKLAHOMA -- A couple of times every week, maybe three or four, if he's lucky, Caleb Johnson launches his boat near one of the many lakes around this city in south central Oklahoma.

For the past three years he hasn't needed any gas, no trailer either, not even a trolling motor, just a kayak and paddle, tackle and shallow water.

"It's easier for me," he says of fishing from a kayak. "I think just being closer to the water and being able to reach down and just grab a fish."

He's on Ardmore's City Lake this morning, fighting weather change, hoping the bite picks up before he has to take his daughter to the dentist.

Caleb likes the quiet out here in the shallows.

"For me it's the opportunity to get out," he continues. "It's an escape from everything that goes on in the real world."

He was never the kind of kid who could afford to buy his own boat and outboard motor, not to mention the fish finder or trolling gear.

He liked fishing too much to wait.
