Hello all :smt006
i am new to NCKA and kayaking. but a veteran waterman. I have two Ocean Kayaks Frenzy's that i bought for me and the boss to play around otw, before I thought about fishing from them. that lead me to here. Last week I went into Aquan Sports and they had a 25% off sale on all Ocean Kayaks. I couldn't walk away. I knew the one I wanted. The Trident 13 angler, now it's mine and ready to rig.
Any way I've been getting a lot of good tips on outfitting from these pages and enjoying the fish reports. I can't wait to post one.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll just drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience.

Rob, thanks for introducing yourself to the family. with that said, welcome to the madness!!! :D

I'm glad that this site has been helpful, as it has for me. But the most amazing thing about this site, is the brother/sisterhood. Everyone has been helpful,sincere, fun-to-hang, & encouraging that i can say I have found many lifelong friends.

Look forward to getting old together, spending time with our families, wet our lines together, and share some fishing memories/stories!!

If I could buy any kayak tomorrow, it would be a T13. Not that I know any better, it gets good reviews and it does look nice.
Welcome aboard.
If you don't know where you're headed, any road could get you there.

Welcome.  Love that T-13 at 25% off - well done.  As one of the only people on the planet with the T-11, I have to say I think the T-13 is my next purchase.

Looking forward to your reports...
