My New X-13 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

red34 · 01-25-2009, 03:23 PM

Here are some of the new things i've done to my kayak. I really want to keep it pretty simple so I'm almost done.

The anchor system still needs a height extension.

I switched all the bungee hooks on the deck rigging with ones from Hobie. I think they are much more durable and easier to work with.

I haven't decided how to do the bait tank yet, but I'll probably use a 3 gal bucket rather than the front hatch.

As far as the bait taink goes, what would you guys recommend? Re-circulating system or just a generic bubbler? I don't want to plumb the boat or go through the hull. I was thinking of doing a re-circulation system with a level overflow and then just adding new water every so often. I don't always use live bait, so I don't want to alter the whole setup for it.
