Couple of solo river floats

Post by Schlag » Fri Jun 10, 2022 5:51 am

Just wanted to share some pics of how I kayak.

Backpack of rods, paddle, and tackle.

My ride back to my locked up kayak.

I typically bring two or three rods.

Some fish caught this season.

The wife let me buy a new river yak. It's much faster and more manuverable than my Jackson Yupik.

Good stuff! Was scrolling and enjoying the pretty calm pictures then BOOM, bright pink jerkbait with a yellow head and pink line, was an eye catcher for sure.

Broke in my Steez Racing Finesse today. Had the week off again.

Little hidden gem. Water is probably 50 degrees. Cold enough to make your feet purple.
