Re: a couple firsts...

Cobia in general are a great fight, but even better when your floating on a hunk of plastic. I caught my first (and only) kayak cobia last year and it was a thrill. He was a little longer than my law-stick, so in the 38" range. For half the fight I assumed I was hooked into a big ray, so the su...

Rob, I'm currently an engineer with my company, and we make polyurethane foam for bedding, furniture, packaging, etc. I'll be getting out of the engineering group to ...

Been out only twice this year...Crappy weather...Boss is cracking down on internet usage so I don't get to waste hours on fishing websites during the day...etc. And just when the warm weather is about to arrive and usher in countless misused week...

Same Crap, Different Year

Since I'm a huge dweeb, I'm reading the book TAMPA in Civil War and Reconstruction . The creatively titled book talks about life in Tampa during the Civil War and Reconstruction. One interesting note in the book is about a Red Tide in August 1871. The local paper at the time was the Florida Peninsul...

Wall Hangers

I have 2 kayaks and use a Thule J-Hook setup to transport them. Come to find out, this isn't the most popular mode of kayak transportation, but it gets the job done. You see, in the span of about 5 weeks, I went from... People fish from freaking kayaks?! How lame! ...to owning a pair of em. So now I...

Looks pretty interesting...I'd definitely have to step my game up.

And lucky for you, pedal drives are specifically included. I know you don't want to go back.

Kayak looks good and stable.
