There are a few of us die-hard fly fishermen on this forum. I never leave the beach without at least one fly rod on board.
Yes, you are a bit limited in cast distance while sitting in a kayak - but since you can position yourself in prime fish areas, a long cast is not usually required.
In the bay when there is no wake activity from power boats, I will stand in my PA and make casts. I always bring a 6 and 8 weight setup in the bays, and only occasionally the 10 weight to throw larger flies and streamers. In the ocean - yes - I also fly fish off the kelp in open water, I predominately use the 10 weight.
Give it a try - you'll have a blast.
