This guy is Sick!!! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I don't get motion sickness very easily but kayaking in the dark (i.e. pre-gray launches or hooping) in snotty conditions will get me. I carry one of those chapstick-sized tubes of dramamine or bonine in my tackle box and it works within about 30 minutes for me if I need it. A little drowsy for an hour or so but sure beats being sick. But the best prevention I've found is to eat a good meal before-hand. If I'm on an empty stomach I get it much worse.

That scopace stuff sounds even better, will get an rx one of these days.
