I like to set goals and get as far out of my comfort zone as possible. I like to learn new things and everyone that knows me knows I do my research and that I'm kind of a nerd.
This winter my goals are to figure out once and for all if there's a keeper Trout in East River, simply because it's close to home and I have only fished it three or four times. Each time I have fished it was to get out of the wind.
My second is to find the Stripers and land a 20 plus pounder.
I'd like to start messing with a fly rod out on the kayak. Never used one before. Oh..and break the black drum record here in Mississippi. I've come so close so many times.
I just got my kayak 3 months ago. So far the catch list of note has been: 1 Tarpon, Mahi, Kings, 1 small Cobia, Spanish, Bonita, Flounder, Specks, and Reds.
Still looking to add to the catch list: Sailfish, Grouper, Snapper, Black fin, Black Drum, and Stripers. Installing my new F/F now to assist in my quest...
Thanks. I really enjoyed myself. Went out at least twice a week (wind permitting) I grew up in Miami on the water and fished all my life. Atlantic, Gulf, San Diego, fresh and salt. 1st Kayak but several boats thru the years.
Thanks man, that's actually the smaller of the two 5+ lb. ones on the fly from this summer. I don't have the photos of the other one edited yet, I'll throw those up on this thread later.
and don't ask to join. I'm pretty selfish in this quest. there's only one rod man and that's me. anyone else out there is for support and will keep their distance until its safe to leash yaks together. I have a very in depth and strict system when it comes to sharks on the yak and im not about to have crossed lines and people tangled in my mainline or have a fish land on their lap.
