I still have my first yak ..... Aquaterra "Spectrum" sink ...... this is the hull that they built the Prism sot from if I am not mistaken ... still have the wooden Whisper paddle that I bought with it

85MPH, May 5th, 2004 my first kayak tournament. :shock: my first tournament also and that day was definitely a major trip ...... I grew up with hurricanes in S.Louisiana and then Galveston ..... Audrey, Camille, Alicia (beachfront), Allison (seawall), Rita (seawall) and Ike (seawall) and some very ...

The beaches are so much better without all that mess. Define "better". Better for beach restoration, dune formation, shorebirds, and the predatory fish we love to chase? Or better for your average Houston tourist who wants a clean place to put out a towel? Always stirring the $#!T as usua...

Amazingly .... so far this year I have not seen one seaweed clump yet ... funny how one year can be so different from the next. Last year this was the Seawall towards the end of June but it started rolling in by early May. The beaches are so much better without all that mess. http://i58.tinypic.com/...

there are some large gator gar but I personally haven't seen an alligator on the south shore of the bay in 35 years of living on the Island ... you will find them on the north shore of the bay around fresh water drainage into the bay.

It seems like multiple companies are coming out with these lighter kayaks. Has anyone ever paddled one around the shell we have on the upper Texas coast? I'd be curious to see if they could be punctured easily or if they hold their own . Yes .. simply Yes Hurricane came out with the Phoenix 140 &am...

I think the weather needs to warm up so all the Fishermen can get out .. wet a line and enjoy a little stress relief out on the water ... that's what I think .....

Sooo ... it's OK to carry and shoot GaftTop on the water ....

I know you do your best, but could the molded in cooler be made just a little larger? A slot redfish in Texas is 20" to 28", and the limit is 3 fish. Imagine how large of a cooler you would want for a 20 pound bag of ice, a limit of reds, and a couple of trout. Yep ... sure seems like 8-1...

What is the interior length, width, and depth of the molded in cooler in the bow? what is the maximum length and width cooler that can be strapped down in front of the motor at the aft end of the boat? Area in front of motor is 10.5" X 25" Cooler is basically 20" x 10 center measurem...

give some of the "Yakin family" a pair of LipGrips or a paddle or a buggywhip with a treble on the end and Buddy ...... ya better stand back ..... haven't you ever noticed all those trucks (some with trailers) running down the freeway at 90mph????

a Pogo sighting .... He Breathes and Speaks .... all it took was a misrepresentation of "Greenland Style" and his personal alarm went off .. .. Good to see ur still out there.

from the picture it looks like the roto model's inside bow has a different layout than the fiberglass model ... curious as to it's actual configuration. Most of the time it's just me and the solo should work fine ... I should also consider a slightly larger skiff designed for two just in case. I thi...

thats an awesome kayak Someone mentioned above - molding in a scupper for an anchor pin ... great on a yak, but on a yak that can go up to 18mph not so good...why ? The scupper because of water force will spray water in a rooster tail all over... This was an option I considered but checked off the ...

They should incorporate a 1" diameter heavy molded thru-hull hole on both rear sides of the roto-mold hull where all you would need to do is drop a stake-out stick down thru either or both holes to secure the solo in shallow water ....... it should be easy to incorporate this into the mold just...

I have identified the group that your "friend" belongs to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElJFYwRtrH4" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; They haven't figured out yet that it is "ObomaCares" fault ......... Since the Guberment has to pay mental benefits for...

Our fishing spots are usually "the end of the road" from an ever grow major city .. Houston. There always have been and always will be "Dumps" at the end of the road. Desperate People also often show up at "the end of the road" ...... there's a song some where in this. ...

I'd like to demo one of these when I get back to work ..... always liked the bow entry line of the Scupper-Pro and these are as close as I've seen ..... some very good bracing in the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9Rfy2ahp4o&feature=player_embedded" onclick="window.open(this.hr...

are they still going to make the glass ones? ... what's the difference in weight and cost between the glass and rotomold??

After all the yaks that I have bought and sold over the years I still kept my first kayak from 1992 ... a 14' Aquaterra "Spectrum" .... it is on the rack-n-roll right now and I plan to take her out when the wind dies down and the sun comes out to do a little bird photo scouting .... they p...

wish y'all Metropolitan Folks had meetings closer to the coast

Couldn't help but bring this one back up for some air :lol: .. 8) update would say that I have bought and sold many, many different kayaks since this thread but still refuse to sell my "Spectrum" she is well over 20 years old now and still a worthy lady. Scott even put a pic of her in &quo...

was this taken in Okinawa? .... some place in the Japan area ... those man made tinker-toy seawalls make me think so but the mountains look more mainland.

I use a stealth 14 and it tracks great and I paddle at about 6-8 mph and 3 when towing I have never fished here with anything less than 15 mph winds. Ok .... I have never met SmithFamilyTackle so anything that I say here is mainly based on the above statement and what others who seem to know him ha...
