I have been going back and forth with the rod and reel stuff. Some say get good stuff and some say wait on it. I going to keep looking around. Going to try to go mid grade. But try to get low level costing for it.
It is pretty cool to see we have a handful of guys here in Temecula area. We should get a meet and greet (beers) setup. With the others in this area. We could all start going fishing together. |

We should start another thread for getting the south end of the IE together. I will post up something later. And we can work out time and location.

So I get a call today from the shop I bought my yak from. They call and say hobie is not carrying the unit I ordered any longer. That there is a new and improved unit being released. That unit won't be in my hands until mid February. All my other parts are in. Which sucks cause I want to be fishing by then. At least I still have time to get everything else. Also the price of unit is to be going up. And since hobie and them made the mistake. I don't need to pay the difference. So I guess that is my silver lining. All my other parts came in. So I guess I can get those picked up and start installing. I just wanted to mount FF first. Then install everything else around it. I did want to ask if any of you can post a picture of your PA? Looking for some ideas on placement of parts. Also if you have a DIY storage rack or stand for storing in garage. The warden is already crying about the tables.

I built that same stand but used 1.5" and put wheels on it.
What parts do you plan on installing? |

Hey Bert, not getting your ff right away might not be a bad thing. The best suggestion I have is to check out other rigs. See where and how other ffs are set up to get an idea of where you would like yours. Go fishing and visualize if it might be in the way for your style of fishing. Like if it might get in the way of your rod while fishing, or when netting or gaffing a fish, or entering or exiting your yak. Better to be sure before you mount it than having to move it later.
