Hey Everyone,

Well I've had my yak for about a year now and have mainly stuck it in freshwater. However, I'd like to get into some saltwater fishing. I don't really know anything about gear selection for saltwater. I probably want a total of 3 set ups. One for YT/WSB, one for halibut, and one for anything else such as bass, rockfish, etc.

Can you guys give me any guidance? I probably have a $600 budget but maybe be able to stretch that a little bit.

Oh and I will probably be using it around the Newport to Long Beach area the most as I will probably be leaving it in a slip I have in Huntington if that makes a difference.
