General Talk / Mike's Paddle Kayak Storage
« on: May 01, 2019, 04:22:12 PM »
Not being paid or anything but had a problem with kayak storage a while back so just though I would share.  I accidentally stumbled about it on CL and hey, might as well check it... looks good.  So this is for anyone in Alameda area that has a problem with kayak storage.  Way cheaper than renting a storage space.  $60 per month with kayaks up to 20'.  More details here.

For Sale / Pescador Pilot. SOLD!!!
« on: April 17, 2019, 02:39:54 AM »
I haven't had the time to use it for a few months and it has just been catching dust instead of fish.  I got it last year and it has scratches from beach launch and stuff.  It is stored indoors (in the apartment).  This is for pick up only in Alameda and can test it out on Crown beach.

Comes with:
1.  Fish Finder (Lowrance Hook 5 WITH Downscan Imaging) battery and ram mounting base.
2.  2 flush mount rod holders (one on each side).
3.  Anchor Trolley.
4.  Kayak Cart & Strap.
5.  Paddle (Carbon fiber handle)
6.  Lube gun for pedal maintenance.

So for anyone looking for their first kayak or value for the money pedal kayak, this is for you! Fully rigged to fish.  This is $1,799 brand new for just the bare kayak plus TAX!.  But for this, I'm looking to only get  $1,400 for everything.

Craftsmen's Corner / Fish finder wirings help
« on: April 03, 2018, 08:41:47 PM »
The FF came in with the kayak I bought so I have no clue about it other than pressing the ON button.  Now that the cat is out of the bag, here are the pics...

Pic 1 - What is the part name of the plastic thing and do I cut that to re-attach the wiring?

Pic 2 - name of the part because I am missing one for the black line.

Pic 3 - the name and the purpose of it.

Pic 4 - overall view of the “thing”

Any takers?  Thanks in advance resident gurus!

General Talk / Family Crabbig!
« on: March 09, 2018, 04:46:21 PM »
This is gonna be my first time taking the kids and the wife crabbing.  Was planning going early morning in Pacifica pier and set my a hoop net and a snare.  What is the best bait to use & is there any law or something that I should know?

Also bringing some ghost shrimp ( missed the low tide so only kept 8. 3 dead and 5 alive, most have to let go because they are tiny.) in case the crabbing sucks.

If that doesn’t work, I’m eyeing HMB.

So any suggestion for the first time adventurer?

Regards

General Talk / Kayak storage in Alameda?
« on: January 03, 2018, 12:22:56 AM »
As much as possible I don’t want to sell my pescador pilot.  Does anyone know here a cheap storage for a kayak in or near Alameda? Or anyone willing to help a brother out, can spare a space in their garage or something?  Or maybe willing to split cost of storage?

Thanks!

For Sale / Pescador Pilot for sale or trade!
« on: January 02, 2018, 08:21:06 PM »
Just had to let go of this beauty as my landlord is being a dick and told me that I can’t store it in the garage -_-!. I’ll have the pictures to follow.

- Pescador Pilot 12.5. 
- will include the
   * lube gun
   * grease   
   * nozzle pin
- Paddle & leash
- 4 flush mount rod holders (installed)
- kayak wheel
- lowrance hook 5 (include maps)
   + battery
   + cover
   + transducer (installed)
   + cover
- 1 rod holder.

The bad: bottom scratches from dragging on and off the beach.  A scratch on the starboard due hitting a rock (no leaks, just aesthetic)

The good:  Pedal is well maintained and can go 5mph with no problems.  No Leaks.  Garage stored and covered.  Rinsed/cleaned after every use.

Will let go for $1,800 pick up at Alameda.  Near the beach, so you can test it out before buying. Also willing for trade for a shorter pedal kayak (radar 11.5 is looking nice) so that I can shove it inside the apartment.

General Fishing Tips / Please improve my fishing skills or the lack or.
« on: November 28, 2017, 08:00:34 PM »
I’ve been bottom trolling my ass off for a few weeks but no luck but I did get a lot of exercise.   Skunfest!  The only thing I caught in Alameda when I started kayak fishing is a smelt, a big one though. 

My cousin is visiting next week and I want to introduce sport fishing to him.  Any pros here with a tip or two?

Thanks!

General Talk / Kayak rudder help!
« on: November 20, 2017, 09:37:18 PM »
Went out the water today and as I try to deploy the rudder nothing happened.  I had to go back on the beach and had to do it manually.  Do you guys lube your rudders or something?  It’s squeeking when I was manually deploying it and when stowing.  Not sure if it was over tighen or something.

Thank you!

General Talk / Pedal Kayaks
« on: November 10, 2017, 10:24:07 PM »
Finally in the market to get a pedal kayak.

Slayer Propel LT.
The weight is the biggest factor that caught my eye but at the same time now sure if thermofoam is a good thing or a bad thing in terms of durability.

Pescador Pilot
The cheapest mofo (pedal) in the market

Wilderness ride PD
Always like the design of the seat (haven’t really sat on it).  Still not sure if 11.5 or 13.5.

Hobie Compass
Well... it’s a Hobie.

I found some used, some comes with extra goodies.  Only thing that will be new from that list would be the Slayer LT.  I know the common theme here is  demo demo demo but not sure where to demo those yaks.  Any thoughs?
