Hi NCKA,

I'm a long time lurker, and I think I might've made an account in the past, but....hello! About me, I was born and raised in Santa Cruz. I learned how to fish on the Santa Cruz wharf. I have a couple of cheap 8ft Future Beach kayaks that I'll take out. I found 3 Lotus Design PFDs at the flea market and I stuff tackle into my backpack. I spent my first big boy paycheck on a lifetime fishing license to remind me that I work to fish. At least I know I should see a ROI in the next decade. I also have spent a decent amount of time spearfishing in the Santa Cruz - Monterey area, I like kayak fishing more because I prefer to stay warm. I was fortunate enough to be able to dive for abalone in 2017, ( i splurged on a dive suit and new mask for that too). I want to get a pedal kayak, but I currently live in San Francisco so there's not much room for any additional toys.
