Hello, Sean from Pleasant Hill here.  Joined the site looking to hook up, learn about rock fishing and crabbing (to start), and to outfit my older "uncut" trident prowler. 

I am pretty comfortable in the ocean as I used to surf regularly before my daughter was born.  Although I need to build that confidence up as I was afraid to fish the HMB green can by myself on a WNW swell @ 5' 15 seconds a couple of weeks ago.

I actually looked into buying a fishing kayak about 10 years ago but I ended up getting a surfski instead as I was still surfing.

Thank you all in advance for sharing your knowledge.

Welcome Sean. I'm pretty close to you if you ever want to stop by to get rigging ideas or borrow crab traps before you buy let me know.
