^^^ Same here I am selling my right hand Quantum escalade 7.0:1 burner to purches a lefty

MT, interesting point....
I am in my boat atleast 2 times a week.
Dont cheap out is what im gathering

I am really struggling with the thought of spending $200+ $$$ on paddles, espcialy since i have used $50 paddles for so long. I recantly did a 20 mile trip and of course i was tired. Im positive i will be tired doing the same trip with lighter paddles. Less tired? maybe, proabbly... Now i obviosly w...

Sounds like Werner makes a good paddle. Looking on line, i think i like the Camano model.
I appriciate all the input.

Ok fellas i need advice! I have been fishing out of a kayak for over 8 years. I have bought 3 sets of paddles all cheap-o's from Academy. Im planning on spending a little more money on a set and dont know what i should get. My primary boat is a Ride 115. I am 6' 215lbs so i know i need a 240. I unde...

Im also going to duck hunt this year from my yak for the first time. I have been 1 other time in a PB and really enjoyed it. Because i live in central Texas i will mostly be hunting lakes and rivers. I will try my hardiest to get salty once or twice. My questions are : retrieving the birds without a...

I also have a 2012 Ride 115. As mentioned above it is a little slow, but not enough to bother me. Stabilty is great. I side saddle fine with the high seat, the low might be better i dont have one yet. 6" is the skinniest water i have been in, no problems. Agree a 240 paddle is a must. I added a...

I will be out sunday moring, first teal hunt and im super excited!

I have been kayak fishing for over 8 years now and have caught LOTS of great fish without electronics. 2 months ago i bought a $60 humming bird DX 200 off of CL. Its is a old cheap-o but it works and its simple, I hull mounted the transducer so temp isn't accurate. install and use is super easy. Now...

Haha, great. So i was planning on making a chisel point but is a flat better? I will mostly be in muddy/grassy conditions

I got my 3/4" x 8' pole in yesterday, i decided to shoot birds instead of trying it out, im excited to use it. I think i will leave it 8' so it can be a push pole also. Will it be difficult to anchor with it being 8'? Obliviously depends on water depth.

I just ordered, 3/4 x 8' fiberglass pole from amazon! Thanks Kingz
Here ya go M T Stringer

The local government receives the info from DPS? Not sure, speaking from experience though. Not long after i got my license (3yrs ago) i got pulled over by a county sheriff, in conversation with him he told me that in running my plates he knew that i have a CHL... He might of been B.S-ing Me? I dont...

As easy as open carry would make it to have it on you, concealed is a PITA, I think in texas , you'd see a lot more 30.06 signs in store fronts because of the "shock" factor of people walking around with guns on their hips. Right now its outta sight outta mind. Plus, it keeps the crooks g...

I have All Stars, American Rod co, Castaways, and quantum's.they are all priced between $50-$150 ish but for some reason i use my $35 ugly stick lite M action the most for both bay and fresh water. It is super sensitive and has great action.
Dont judge me!

Im for open carry even though im probably not going to walk through wal-mart with a .44 mag strapped to my hip. It will be nice when i wont have to worry about the wind blowing up my shirt unconcealing my weapon.
Although a shoulder holster / PFD hybrid would be cool.

Show both, i have got way more warnings since getting my chl
IMO if you are going to leave your house, car, watercraft...( castle ) have a license. There are way to many grey areas on this topic.

Yup im a fan, i have all stars, castaways, american rod co... But yet my ML ugly stick lite gets the most use.

DIY LEDS Got em done! Came out great. I ordered 16' of the green l.e.d strips $18, and 4 12" white strips where $8, led strips where bought on Amazon. With shipping i paid $32. $12 heat shirnk, $25 deer feeder battery at tractor supply, velcro to hold down the battery $6 , 3m double side tape $...

I have had luck throwing live shrimp on a popping cork in between the island and Chanel in the deeper water, caught a good mess of trout that way. defiantly be aware of the boat traffic :dance: also imo you can never go wrong with working the flats over with plastics, i have wrestled a few good reds...

I cant speak for the H&H minnow from the 80's but they have been my go to salt water plastic for about 8yrs. Coachoe or queen Coachoe it doesn't matter as long as its char and pumpkin.

Found a FF on Craigslist for $60
Im am new to this yak electronics thing,Has anybody used this model, how does the transducer mount? any feed back would be great.
Thanks

Oh and Its a dual beam model with the temp option.

Im also 6'2 and 220lbs. My ride 115 is awesome, i have a T120 in my fleet and would say the ride paddles amzingly close the the tarpon. I would not think twice about taking the ride on a 5 mile trip.

Outstanding, hopefully pics will be my next post. As long as i can sneak this past the warden (my wife)
Thanks!

Lights look sweet guys, and im pretty savvy on the laws now
My question is how are the strips fastened to the yak. Double side tape, silicone, some sort of adhesive? This question pertains to the supernovas, wild cats and the DIY. Sorry if this has already been addressed.
Thanks
