New kayak fisherman here  :smt006, although I have been lurking these forums for years.  I finally picked up a kayak from the classifieds section on this forum and got a great deal!  Thanks Augie!  I have been getting familiar with the kayak at a nearby lake.  I have also taken a Kayaking Skills and Safety class at Del Valle through Outback Adventures this past weekend.  It was a great class...very informative.  Although we were using sea kayaks, the newly learned skills should apply to the SOT kayaks.  We covered equipment, strokes, paddling technique, capsizing, dealing with a flooded kayak, and re-entries.  The re-entry part was very helpful.  We practiced team recovery and self recovery.  Now I just have to get all the recommended safety gear and give the big blue a try on a calm day.

A suggestion: develop your kayaking skills and figure out how to outfit your kayak by fishing in calm lakes before try kayak fishing in the ocean.
