What a day!

We had an AWESOME turn out for the Pay It Forward Paddle today!

The weather could have been a little nicer, but we had a great time floating out by the Red Buoy, on the beach and at the potluck. The raffle was a HUGE success! Stay tuned, will get the final reports out soon.

Just want to say THANK YOU EVERYONE for all the generosity and the outpouring of support for our brothers Joel and Marv

Without all of you, none of this would have been possible.

Will have to just start this as a teaser report for now

But here are some pics!

It was my favorite day last year and the same for this year. Thanks AHulls!!! So many great moments like Craig smoked Raptor, a hail Mary ling, taco throw down and watching shark bait clean up at the raffle. Glad Joel got the rod I made. Sometimes all that is good about life turns out right. Today was a special day for sure.

My Girlfriend and I had a great time. I'd like to thank everyone who made this event possible. And a huge thank you to everyone who "payed it forward" and hooked it up with the awesome raffle prizes. I won the Rob Roskopp deck and will be throwing some trucks and wheels on it shortly, stand by for a GoPro video! It was really nice to see people in the NCKA fam, and meet ones that I havent previously met, most notably the one and only Fishunter. In the "Sport" of Kayak fishing, your one of the guys who really kept me interested and motivated me to actually accept that I had the madness and buy a kayak. So yeah, it was super cool for me and my lady to hang with everyone, she had a great time, and because of that, so did I

. Next up, is to get her to a NCKA overnighter. Thanks again to everyone who made this possible, especially those of you who Payed It Forward. It was great meeting everyone who I haven't met before! See ya at the next one!
