Hey all, finally pulled the trigger and got my first yak. Picked up a 2011 Tarpon 120. Its still in great shape and has no upgrades but that will change this weekend. I plan on adding my finder,gps, rod holders and a basket to it over the weekend. Anyways just wanted to share with ya guys. Cant wait to take it out fishing. Here are a couple pics if they load ok.
Later Flip.....

Congrats on the new yak Flip! I love Tarpons. And that's a clean lookin yak. It's probably better that it's bare...because drilling holes & customizing it for yourself is the fun part!
