Makobob needs HELP

[MrPukaShell]

Mako, what rack are you going with? Did you get to check some out? Any thoughts on having one made at a fabrication shop? Bet you could get one built in Mexico on the cheap if you looked around, just a thought.

I picked up the RacOne thru Home Depot, it is MUCH better designed and stronger that the Thule it is replacing. Now all I have to do is install it, oh well maybe this afternoon after it cools off some. Will take longer to take the old one off than install the new!!! Leaving for Lodi early Thursday to pick up the Stealth Pro Fisha 525. Then it is down to Gonzaga for a few days to check it out. Tight Lines.

Awesome Bob, can't wait to see it in action! Sucks about your feet, but I understand pushing through pain no matter what.

Ive seen lots of fish and fish pictures but you better take pix of the 525 and POST THEM!

Go Bob!

Sorry if someone else already mentioned this but Wilderness used to make a tarpon 120 ultra lite. Might be worth looking into... I took one for a demo ride once. Light and fast but not a wide stable boat by any stretch of the imagination. Stable enough most could probably fish it but doubt anyone would be standing in one. Good luck in your quest!

DAMN, you know me and pictures................... So you and John are just going to have to set up a play day and meet me at Oceanside or Lj one afternoon and and have a go at it. BTW that invite is open to any BWE members. Just contact me and bring a 6 pk of COLD A&W Cream Sodas, your OWN pfd and paddle. Troy YOU bring your camera and then you can post them all. I know people will want to see them, it is a modified fish/ski that is fast, pretty stable, and has a gigantic storage area for rods and big fish........... AND handles surf launches and landings with MY eyes closed. Not built for bait fishermen, but I am not a masterbaiter. Tight Lines.

That kayak looks pretty nice Bob, and if it'll keep you on the water a bit longer then that's a bonus.

Can't wait to check out your new kayak Bob.
Stoked for you!
Composite / Carbon Import...It doesn't get any better than this.
Stealth Pro Fisha 525-
IN for a play day!

Good luck on the trip to Lodi. I know your truck is clueless about driving that far on pavement so watch for an off road rebellion of sorts. "Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again"

I will bring two six packs of your choice to try that rocket ship of a kayak.
