Wanting to get into this! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

^^^^^^^ x 2!!!!!

I never have it off while on the water. I paddled someone else's kayak in the very shallow water at the Tidelands launch without mine and I felt so uncomfortable. Almost like driving a car without a seatbelt.

Point taken. I purchased the hobie angler vest. I have worn my wakeboard vest every second I have been in my yak. I will do the same with this. Purchased the vest, waders and 4 rod and reel combos tonight. I should be dialed with remaining items on my list by Sunday.

Bert, what rod/reel setups did you decide on?

Went with

1 penn senator 113 with a triburon kit on a cal star rod
1 daiwa saltist 40 with a cal star rod
1 diawa Luna with a saber rod
1 penn international 975 on a cal star rod

I may get one or two more rod/reel combo. But it's going to after I get the rest of my stuff. I am filling all reels with full braid and going to use flora carbon leaders. Also picked up my radio. All I need now is landing kit, splash top, leashes and tackle. I will have everything but that freakin FF by Sunday.

Thanks for the west marine tip alanw $99.99!
