You actually ride in it yet?
just got it yesterday. took it out on the pond at the place i bought it from.
Had a Kayak a couple years ago, it was a 2 person, and heavy.
Took it out into the bay hooked a 20lb Jack on 8lb line, and he pulled my butt/yak all over the place 🙂
I think they call that a Nantuckett Sleigh Ride!
Would like to try a repeat of that with a 50+lb Tarpoon!
I could likely make it to Cuba and back in that case LOL 🙂
There are guys that go out and target tarpon out of their yaks. Personally, i see it as highly dangerous. I jumped 2 in one morning and cranked my drag down to break them off. A 10 pound jack will drag you all over the bay. I actually caught my biggest bass out of mine and she took me for a ride. It is fun getting drug around by a fish, but a 100# tarpon is dangerous
My kayak to me is nothing more than a floating tackle box. I paddle to where the fish are, use my stake out pole, get out and wade fish. When I kayak fish, I am actually in the kayak 1/3 of the time I am out. The rest is wading
