Seems complicated, at least for now.

Thanks y’all. Good advice here as usual.
I will give the Codinter device a try since it’s the simplest option. My Odyssey doesn’t have rails or hatch, so first order of business would be to install the rails and crossbars.
I’ll report when I make progress

I've tried those, it doesnt stay on all time and will slip when you put weight on it.

Through the years I've owned 2 Hydrus suits and 2 Goretex suits. Goretex is a lot more breathable. I base this on how much I sweat portaging gear for surf launches. But then there is the extra cost factor.  Do I think its worth it. I say Yes. I am dry and comfortable. It lasts years and Kokatat has a great warranty policy.  Just take care of it.

Tackle Ho!!  Just like me. 

I have the 2023 Senior Angler pass, paid $150. I've been fishing once and sometimes twice a week. I experienced around 20 trout limits at Chabot last year. I am at Quarry lakes now, no bites yet.

Big thank you to Paul and the others involved in this. I voted April to Oct. weather can get iffy in Nov and Dec.

I wanted a lighter kayak and went with a Revo 11.  I use it mainly for local lakes.

I did a quick afternoon trip at Quarry Lakes yesterday from 2pm to 4:30pm. I came across 2 kayakers with high end gear both BFS and on their yaks. They were casting mini spoons. They told me at the boat ramp that between the 2 of them they C&R around 50 dfw trout that were about 8 inches. They stayed in one area near the fishing pier.

I on the other hand trolled the entire lake with my go to kastmasters and Yozuri minnows. I ended the day with a 2 nice trout, biggest was a 5.5 lb lightning.

Here's the kayakers I came across at Quarry Lakes fishing BFS style.
