Party Crashers - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Did you pop the cherry on the jig-stick, Ryan...twice!?! I love that shot of you holding both tails, stoked out of your mind!

It's kind of hard to tell by the photo, but it also looks like your front hatch isn't closed and secured. I'm sure it is secure and I can't see the strap, but word for the wise--- incase some kayak newbie is listening anyway: always, always, always---make sure your front hatch is closed when attempting to take legend photos like this. If you're brand new Hobie, with the $1,000 sonar and custom wrapped rods were to flip in the process of taking that incredible photo---it will fill up with water and sink in about ten seconds. Like a rock!

I know Ryan is a hardcore watermen and more than capable of swimming ten miles and night navigation via landmarks, but the real question is, are you?
