... going on a home which delayed me. I got there later than I wanted to but still made it to around the event start time around 8PM. I took the inflatable Sea Eagle 385fta again. Took an assortment of rigs I wanted to try, including the ned rig, and something I heard Capt Scott Null talk about ...

I have several inflatable stand up paddle boards (SUP's) in Thailand and in China and I love them for paddling around. But I'd be very leery of fishing from them, especially where there are barnacles. Stick to a hard board if you'll ...

Truth is Ron I’d probably trust my wife in it more than myself.

I was going to ask about the inflatable as well. I have a NRS Pike that I use on rivers but have been to afraid to use it in the marsh. My wife wants to take it sometimes just to paddle around, now I can’t say it won’t be good. Iguess an ounce of prevention...and all that.

And nice report. Thanks!

Chubs - are you fishing from an inflatable kayak? If so, how do you like it? Yes I have been fishing from an inflatable sea eagle 385fta. I think it's a great boat for most anything inshore. There are pluses and minuses to it. Pluses are ...

... camper + kayak notes with you but guess that's not quite accurate. We have a camper we've been hauling around for the past year and I take my inflatable kayak along. Works well for me. And one day my kids and maybe even wife will join up with me (though she said she'd prefer go get a pedicure ...

... all night. Had I thought about this before I launched, I would have pre-wetted the straps and then tightened everything down. I remember an inflatable kayak rental outfit doing this for me many years back when I kayaked at Big Bend. Unfortunately that was a costly lesson to forget. Also! ...

Makes sense to not be able to find an inflatable.

I did hear on the news that the kayak the lady was in on Lake Pflugerville was an "inflatable kayak". That explains why it hasn't been recovered.

Simply put, we need to learn from this tragedy. If something dreadful happens to me kayaking, it is not because I was not wearing my PFD. As soon as I sit in my kayak, first thing I do is locate the inflatable handle. I carry my whistle and multi pliers in the pockets.

... spoon to cut through the wind on the bait caster. That worked fine but still no fish. Real bad waves with the wind so very glad I left the new inflatable kayak at home. Eventually moved over to a little bayou from Old Town Lake. Fished the mouth and the water was hauling butt into the lake ...

I agree, looks like it would shine as a river drift boat.

I just looked it up, very similar specs (looks practically identical to the seaeagle 350fx hehe). Same or maybe even better Denier rating on the material (though the seaeagle says it's got double layers in the tube sides and floor, really no idea what they mean but I can only guess). I'd imagine you...

I have an NRS Pike that I use on the river. I had originally planned on using it in the marsh but the guy that got me going said it would get shredded by oyster and I would have to get a helicopter to get out! It to has a bottom/outer floor like rafts do that I thought would protect the air chambers...

Since I've not had any luck fishing lately (attempted Bayou Vista area on Saturday, 3.5 hours with 2 bites to show for it and no fish), thought I'd follow up with my older post - http://www.texaskayakfisherman.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=246805 I've alluded to it in other posts, but I ended up...

Free sail and aluminum rigging. I bought a Windglider multi-purpose watercraft some years ago. The " boat part" was a flat, inflatable raft. The raft part failed and I junked it. The sail is still here. If you want it, come and get it. No, I do not want to take it apart and measure ...

... take it off my hands. So, a decent trip. Caught some fish on a quick stop! Nice to unwind a bit after a very long family "vacation" The inflatable kayak was great too. Handled well but of course no wind. I rubbed a little oyster and no leaks so also good. The elevated seat is nice but ...

... was it's a single air chamber. They are pretty tough (i got a sample of their material, it is tough) but I'd prefer multiple air chambers for an inflatable so there is some amount of redundancy if an oyster has its way with a hull. I got the inflatable fishing kayak 385 I think. Got for similar ...

... sailed an O'Day 27, so I think out my rigging, make it work, and make it last. On this thread, everything that's involved is the skeg made for an inflatable kayak, designing and fabricating a bracket to make it work on a PE kayak (all done over 6 years ago), and making it work better along with ...

... idea of multiple smaller batteries. Would be a heck of a lot easier to move around and distribute weight. Mine would be out in the open though (inflatable so no "in hull" storage) so I'd need to come up with some sort of enclosure. I'll come up with something.
