Re: PFCS #5 - Seeing Spots in UTB - Results
I haven't been able to post since the weekend but I wanted to say I had a great time. It was my first paddle-fishing tournament and it most definitely wont be my last. I just hope I can figure out a way to safely transport my kayak on my dodge charger (w/out a roof rack). Although I didn't catch a d...

Re: New To Kayaks...Your Insight Please
I'm relatively new to kayaking also. I didn't do the research or test out any models and let me tell you, I regret it wholeheartedly. I went to Dick's and picked up a Perception Sports Caster 12.5, for a basic kayak it's okay but I wouldn't recommend it for anyone more than 225 lbs, it sits really l...

Re: DIY Rudder?
After looking at the logistics of it all, and the fact I have limited tools here in FL; I have decided to cash in my Patron bottle full of coins to get the full kit from Duckworks. It seems like a stand-up company and not 15 mins after I ordered, they called me to personally thank me for the order. ...

DIY Rudder?
I have been doing a lot of research and shopping for a rudder for my yak. I paddled a friends perception caster 12.5 with a rudder and the tracking difference is night and day. There doesn't seem to be anyone who manufactures rudders for less than $200 and I can't spend that right now. I'm going to ...

Fly rod restoration?
I inherited a couple of old bamboo fly rods from my Great Grandfather. they aren't in horrible shape but after sitting in my parents basement for 35+ years, they need some restoration. I'm not looking to fish with them, just to showcase them on my wall. They are Octagonal 3-piece bamboo and they are...

Re: Cabbagehead Bayou
I was there this morning, well double branch and I saw two reptilian sorts floating along in the current. One was around marker #12 and the other right at #14 by the bay. I don't know if they were crocs or gators b/c I didn't want to get close enough to find out :? . Other than that, I'll be at DB a...

Re: Cabbagehead Bayou
I'm going out to DB tomorrow (just realized it's so close to me). I have been going to Honeymoon and Fred Howard but that's a bit of a haul with foam blocks on a Charger. I would love to meet up with anyone, I'll be putting in probably around 8 or so. Which launch would you recommend? State st or in...

Re: Saturday
I'll probably be going out to Honeymoon in the morning. I'd love to make it down to cockroach but I'm strapping the kayak on top of a dodge charger with foam blocks... :| I can't safely go over 50 so I stay close-ish to home. If anyone is out there come say hi, I'm brand new to this kayak fishing th...

Re: Hello All
Wow, I could see this being my way to fish for a long, long time. I passed on the Pescador and opted for a caster 12.5 new from Dick's. It was on sale for less than what was being asked for the Pescador. I have had it out twice now, learning the ropes, haven't caught anything on it yet but it sure i...

Hello everyone! I am brand new to paddle-fishing and ocean kayaks in general (I have in kayaks in lakes and rivers but not out in the ocean). I am an avid fisherman who spent summers down in the Keys with the grandparents out trolling, and I love bass fishin'. I moved down to Tampa area in January a...
