Post by gdm phil »

thinking I might be picking up a Kayak this week. My buddy on singer has one and we want to add another. the one im looking at is decently larger than his and we want it to be the boat with all or most of the gear. Ide like to get ideas on how to rig the Yak up.

Ever since he got a king while drifting hes hooked. I dont wanna be on shore while hes pulling up kings

Cookinman! You still kickin it on the yak! This is Javier, we fished Flamingo together some moons ago. I had to give up the yak, as we had another rugrat back in '09, and the motorcycle takes up fishin' time these days. Still have some beach rigs, and of course, the bassin' rigs for when I go out with my son.

Good to see you are still at it.

Hi Javi ! nice to see you too. I gave up the R-1 When the wife and I had babies, opted for the the yak, which is relatively safer....specially how I rode...lol

We re at 2 total now too - Isa is5 and in Kindergarten and Sophia is now 3 - Hard work, but getting easier each day.

What's up fellas? Just picked mine up on Monday. It's a 13' Hobie Quest. Backrest and paddle included, 2 flush rod holders, and tons of storage. Hopefully I'll have some fish to show while on vacation next week. Some of you will remember me from FS. Hey Cookinman and krash!

Whatsup H.A. ! You are gonna love yak fishing !!!

Lets get some blood on that thing this summer! Im a cold water snob, lol, so no yakkin for me until the water gets over 75....haha. Check the NMZ on the FS site, lots of folks post trips there and its a great place to hook up w yakkers in So Fl. I usually try to double post to get some interest here as well....

This is an old thread, but since it is up, does anyone know if it is possible to get a tandem kayak that I can also use for fishing solo? I would like to get one for my wife and I to go around the Loxahatchee river and intercoastal, but I'd also like to be able to take it fishing inshore and maybe offshore on calm days.

the one i sold was able to do that, get a shorter tandem, you can buy a seat and attach to the middle position...mine was a tarpon 130t, i think for less money you can get something else tho...I took mine out a few times by myself, I would definitely recommend the shortest tandem possible, if it is too windy, you will have a hard time.
