Hey Suber.....guess what?

[Ty one on]

I am thinking about a Kayak. There are a lot of places I would like to fish without having to run boat to get to. Some of these places are right off the road and far from any boat ramp.
I may only do it one time or I may do it a lot.

So I am looking for something cheap and used, in case it isn't my cup of tea or .

Oh yea, JT51 and the Bassboys are not allowed to laugh at me.

We'll go fishing one day in one of those spots your talking about and you can use one of my spare yaks. Then you can figure out what you'll need.

Suber,

What are Yakers saying about the Native Kayaks, the tunnel hull ones? Seems like a good concept?

[jsuber]

Don't get jealous. We aren't fishing Brokeback Bay.

Reel Slow,
I know some of those folks at Legacy Systems and Native canoe-yaks are great boats for freshwater and light inshore. They are not self bailing like a sit on top and thats the only reason I call them light inshore. They are really great boats, and you can stand in them. I like the little rudder design and they can be purchased at Big Bend Fly Shop on NE Capital Circle. Mike Teal over there sells them. A fishermen I know in Virginia is one of their Pro-staff guys and he loves them. I have not heard anything bad about them and most likely will not.

More info Suber....

So a sit on top is self bailing . that is good to know.

I have been studying some maps as if I were going to fish from a Kayak. It could really broaden my fishing locations.

self bailing is a result of the payload, if you and your tackle weigh more than the payload it won't bail and your arse will be wet.

Hey Tye. What's next popping corks and gulps

Hey Tye. What's next popping corks and gulps

Hey I did try some Gulps this year. The 7" ones, four for $6.99. They did work and caught some real good fish on them. Only thing wrong with them is after about 30 minutes the back starts to bow a little and then the bait goes through the water like a cork screw and twist your line. So the way I see it is, four baits in two hours cost $6.99 plus tax. But you will catch some fish during that time.

Them little boats look nice. I'll bet them skeeters would bite you right through the seat material (Ouch!) But over all it looks like a nice yack to own.

There aint enuff room in a Yak fer yer BEER cooler Ty

Of cousre, that was my first concern.

Options:
1-Kayak built for two and take out one seat.
2-Two small coolers. one on the Yak and one on the hill.
3-Get one of those back packs like the bicycle dudes ware.

Advice needed from some of you old pros.
