Midnight Rider (10/1/2007)Thats a pretty big open face reel on the back left corner of the picture. Your not shark fishing outa that thing are you???:unsure: Thanks for showing us your yaks. Ill bring some beads with me next time
Naw... it's not too big and I use it all the time. It's a Pflueger and only has 25lbs mono. I probably can catch just about anything with it. If I plan to fish the gulf, I also bring a 330GTI with me and it works great. It's light and heavier duty than the Pflueger. :Wow: I have caught a small shark on it... I'll catch whatever eats my bait!! hehehehe Yes.. Please do bring the beads!! I prefer skull and crossbone ones!! HAHAHA

Well Pam, as I told you in my email, I don't have very good photos of my kayak and I don't have much in the way of rigging like y'all do but here are some photos.

The Redfish 14 is actually light tan but the sun that afternoon on Indian Bayou launch ramp made it look like it was yellow! I would prefer the yellow to the tanif the truth were known.

When I am out fishing, I hardly ever think to take any shots of my means of transportation but,that day up on the East end of Chocktawhatchee Bay in those reeds and grasses, I felt a moment of weakness. I was batting 0 for the morning with game fish and I got windbound in the process and had to pee so bad that I almost floated myself so I pulled up on this little stretch of sand and had a drink and waited out the wind. That little cove was about the only spot that I could find that was out of the direct wind!! That was the day that I had to paddle Southwest to go North as the swells were higher than my yak!! I landed almost a mile North of my put-in point on Rte. 331 and had to walk back to get the car to load up! That was one windy day!!

I purchased the Roleez cart from Pensacola Kayak & Sail. I have used it to cross the beach twice since I bought it. It has been great - expensive, but I'm glad to have it. I toyed with the idea of building a cart. Many have and I have seen some really good looking carts. Several members of the Gulf Coast Kayak Fishing Association have built carts. In the end, I didn't want to mess with rounding up wheels & other parts separately.



On my first trip into the Gulf off of Pensacola Beach I dragged my kayak across the sand - thought I would collapse on the return trip after fishing for several hours. It still takes some effort to pull a loaded boat across the beach but nothing like without the cart.

Titanium it is, but I have a bright green one rigged just like it that is quite visible. I also have a flag to fly if I'm around the weekend crazies or pwc areas. NO! it doesn't have a Pirate on it. I got both drifters on deals so I had no color choice. The Prowler color is my choice, same color as the 55 Chevy I drove in H.S.
