: Thank You very much for all the info,It will help alot. I will probably be getting a kayak within a month, and definatley start my fishing anventures as soon as possible,I will post up when I am planning on going out for a round up, hope you can come.
Welcome aboard. What beaches/launches are local to you? When you get around to rigging the yak, let us know if you have any questions.
Ritchie makes a great deck mount compass. I recommend those big time. They're easy to install, reliable, less expensive than the big bubble ones you see in most kayak shops.......
Build a little safety kit using a waterproof box (about $20 for the box). Some first aid, light sticks, maybe a dive flare or two, granola or powerbar, whistle.......you get the idea. Don't forget to buy a good folder (knife) and a PFD.
Enjoy!
