On my Hobie Oasis, I filled the extra mirage drive plug with lead shot. Worked good to balance the kayak out.
I lost that one day and started just throwing a dry-bag filled with water up in the front. That worked a little bit better, because if I got a nice fish, I could just empty out the dry bag and toss the fish up front.
One thing I did like, was having no ballast up front during surf landings. Having the bow that high in the air made it nearly impossible to flip the yak in the surf on the way in.
