SW swell 2ft @ 15 secs.

I don't know PP that well, but I would expect that you will want to watch your timing.  Even at just 2ft, those longer period swells have a lot energy.  But probably just a shore break that you can easily time.  Good luck!

It's yours.  We can coordinate view PMs.

Lightly used.  Not sure what exact model.  Top bar is ~17 inches across.

$50.

Pickup in Mountain View/Los Altos area.

Rockaway can have a pretty significant rip current right at the preferred launch at the south end of the beach.  Often times you will see the surfers riding the rip out and then turning more towards the center of the beach to catch their waves.  I have never figured out what conditions/swell direction setup for that rip to be especially strong, but it is something watch out for.  Launching is, of course, easy with the rip, but you don't want to relax on the way in.  Did that once and end up getting dumped and spit back out amongst the the surfers.

Never used.  All mounting hardware included, but it is missing the rod holder that can be mounted behind.

Hoping against hope that someone picked up a lonely set of Hobie beach wheels and wants to return them. Left right in the grass in front of parking lot.  (Not the first time I have left something behind, but certainly the most expensive mistake.)

Fished with Nolan, Greg, and Brian out of Moss yesterday.  We launched at 6:30 to no wind and just a small swell. We fished the edge of the canyon straight out and then more northern finger for absolutely nothing.  Not even a bump.  There was sporadic bait on the FF, but no birds and only 2 whales that we saw cruising by.

After about 10 miles of paddling we were heading in, and I was getting tired, so I pulled up my down-rigger and put a 10oz torpedo in front of my triangular flasher and FBR with a big herring.  5 minutes later and BANG, fish on.  I can tell right away that it is big.  It is peeling drag and shaking.  I give him the pedal drag treatment and he does a few short runs and I can't really gain any line on him as the pedaling and its weight is right at my drag limit.  After about 10 minutes, the fish isn't doing any more runs, but is still very heavy.  I stop pedaling and start working on gaining some line.  When he gets near the boat, I see a big flash of purplish green and think that it is sea bass.  It still wants to sit really deep and is pretty active, twisting and turning near the boat and I get a better look and confirm that it is a Chinook, with a colorful (and big) back.

Trying not to panic, I work it to both side of the boat a couple of times, but it keeps pulling just a bit of line and heading down as I am trying to get the net into position.  Nolan is watching from nearby and has offered to net a couple of times and on the third ask, I swallow my pride and say yes, "please help"!  First pass by we don't quite line things up, but on the second pass, I  get the fish up and into his net.  It's a beast, furiously flopping, and I end up grabbing the far side of the hoop and we hoist it out of the water together with a holler.

I had persistent power problems with my Lowrance elite a couple of years ago.

I ended up wrapping fishing line around the plug tying that to the mounting bracket, and then cinching down to apply some angular pressure at the connection.  It mostly worked, but I sent the head unit in for repair at the end of the season.  I had (more or less) reproduced the problem with a different battery & cable, so I felt like it was actually an issue the the power connection inside the head unit.

But, having had some power issue since, I really think it is all about corrosion on both sides of the connector.  I try my best to keep that connection dry, but I am still having to clean/scrub both sides pretty regularly.  This includes a good corrosion cleaner, and  getting into the female plug with steel bristle brush and/or a sharp fish hook.  (I am not sure that the fish hook is a good idea, but it seems to have helped.)

I kinda feel that the power connection isn't really up to the rigors of kayak fishing.  Or at least it requires someone who is going to be more careful with its care than I am willing to be.  Dielectric grease, plastic baggies for the connectors, plugs in the head unit on the way out, careful not to get it wet at the end of the day - damn it, I just want to fish!
