I was certain I was the only one.

What are you doing with the stingrays?

Happy new year

I've parked there more times than I can count over the last year and have not had a single problem. It's more convenient than the end of sportsman because you can launch and park at the same place (unlike walking back to the yak and truck like you have to do now off the end of Sportsman).

That's a very good point Karstopo.

Having a conversation with my buddy Kenny (Westendtroutassassin) and wondering what wind speed you gents decide to absolutely leave the kayaks at home. I might expose my rookie status here...but I would not go by myself with winds of 15+, but think I will go if it's 20 or less with a buddy. I would ...

Excellent choices Yak

Absolutely. Kudos

Awesome! Way to go!

I use one from wal-mart, but actually find it easier to let my eyes adjust to the dark.

Really enjoyed those pics. Excellent call on the contest sir!

If you have a true fear of a shark attacking you or your stringer, I just wouldn't use one. True story: I was wading in between Jamaica beach and SLP last year with 3 reds and two trout on my stringer when I see a big swirl about 10-15 feet from me...thinking it was redfish I keep watching and waiti...

Awesome!

Nice! Congrats on the new ride and catch.

There is a thread about 10-12 post down that will give you a lot in insight. Also, the trout support DVDs will teach you years of knowledge. The biggest point I would give is this: find mud or mud and shell and you'll find more fish in winter.

Most guys I know that fish the surf in yaks say it's not launching out that's dangerous, but coming back in. It's the ride back to the beach where you need to be on your A game.

Strong work! Way to best the elements.

What time you thinking about meeting at 8 mile Kenny?

I like to anchor about half of my max casting distance from the light with the wind at my back. If there is current I position myself where my retrieve will go with the current. I've caught better fish on the outside edges of the light.

Count me in Kenny!

The first thing I do when it's raining:
Expect to catch more fish.

Some of my best days have been rainy. I'm not a fan of high wind and rain and if I see lightning, I'm out of the water immediately.

My techniques don't really change. I would use darker color lures.

Strong!

Good point. He is a marketing machine, not to mention he makes an incredible product at a fair price.
