Hey Tom-
Do you think it would be a good idea to start a group/section on the board for Kayak Fishing? The description could be something like," All things having to do with Kayaks accessories and fishing techniques" You know, something similar to the "Diving & Spear fishing" group. There seems to be a growing interest in the kayak genera, and it would serve them well to have a place to call home. They seem to be setting up home here anyway, you might as well provide them a suitable forum area.
Just a friendly suggestion...

I just opened the Site Feedback Forum to ask about a kayak fishing group and saw that MJ had already made the same suggestion. I post quite a bit on another forum on this topic, but most of the folks there are located along the N.E. Atlantic Coast, or the East Coast of Central Florida, or the Tampa Bay area. Tampa, Pensacola, and the JAX area have one or more Web sites for yakfishers, but nada for the Big Bend.
For example, I have been looking for a local fishing partner, but it is hard to make contact with other yakfishers in this area since there is no single place to do this. There was even a Kayak Fishing Tournament last year for the Big Bend organized by the Wilderness Way shop. A local yak forum would be a great place for sharing info on rigging kayaks for fishing, different types of kayaks suitable for fishing, local places to put in, good fishing areas within easy paddling distance, types of rods, reels, and lures suitable for yak use (e.g., size does make a difference when yakfishing!), etc. I would be glad to help with this, should you need someone. Here is a pic of my ride.
Thanks,
Dick

Greetings Tom.
Are the postings made to the new Kayak Fishing group hitting the "latest discussion threads" on the home page? I may be confused but it looks like they may not be showing up.

What about fly tying/rod building/boat building.
