Re: First Mahi Mahi

Re: First fishing kayak

As many people fish and paddle in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, Lousiana and where there are large populations of gators your odds are pretty good you won’t be a statistic.

First Mahi Mahi

Well a few weeks ago we took a trip to the Gulf. We fished 5 of the 8 days we were there. This was our most productive trip yet, after several trips and gaining knowledge of the waters we are getting the hang of it. The only thing I don't like is how rough the saltwater is on the gear. This Mahi Mah...

Good tutorial, are the same bearings needed for the 2500 FJ's also, and the previous models?

Re: First fishing kayak

For (SERIOUS) water fishing and needing to stand up when able to I would lean toward the Jackson Coosa, or the Ride 115. The Coosa's seating is a little more rearward so you can turn quicker to navigate rapids easier. I don't recommend someone not familiar with rapids thinking this is a whitewater b...

Re: My Hobie w/ Mods

Nice work Jerry that's one good looking fishing machine. I've been toying with the lighting for a while but don't know if I want to install a battery buss, and switch or what. It would be on the Pro Angler that's the only kayak I fish from at night.

Re: Tennessee Fishing

I recognize the bass and the white bass. What is the fish with the forked tail? I only fish salt water here in San Diego. We call them the Tennessee Tarpon/Poor Mans Tarpon. They are commonly called Skipjack. They get up to 23" and put on great aerial displays. They resemble a Tarpon in many aspect...

Re: Dry top

I have a Hobie Dry Top, but have never wore it. I don't have a dry suit either. I usually have a base layer of fleece, wool socks with a pair of seal skin socks over them. I wear a pair of waterproof pants also with a few layers on the top, but try not to over dress. I like to keep mobil, and comfor...

Re: Tennessee Fishing

Come on out Ryan.

We may be fishing Dale Hollow, or the Caney or both this weekend. Next weekend is Camping and fishing in ALabama on the Cahaba River, the weekend after that is camping/fishing Reel Foot, then the weekend after that is a tournament in Georgia.

It's going to be a busy year.

We have caught several different species from largemouth, smallmouth, hybrids, crappie, and skipjack. So far i...

Re: Kayaks & Fishfinder's

Yes, it’s able to be done, but not my preference. If I wanted to go all RAM and keep it the way you described it would be like this. This would stand up fairly tall and be a lot of connections, and I don’t know how stable and secure this would be with all the connections, but using a RAM Ball and wa...

Re: Kayaks & Fishfinder's

Here is another idea. You could mount a 4” piece of Gear Trac to the upper side of the hull out of the way of your paddle stroke preferably forward. http://kayakfishinggear.com/yakattack-geartrac-system.aspx http://kayakfishinggear.com/images/products/detail/GT175042PK.JPG Then a 1” Screw Ball to th...
