Hello all,
My name is Joe and I live in Chico, came up here for college 10 years ago and never left... Its awesome up here.  Lately my recreation has been more focused on the coast though, I went AB diving with a few work buddies about 6 months ago and got hooked, I love it.  Ever since then I've been accumulating my own gear and was able to get my hands on a Malibu 2XL kayak that I have mainly used for diving however I am starting to realize how awesome it is for just about any body of water.  I love to fish (Trout & Bass Mainly) so this seems to be a great fit for me.  This website looks great, lots of info and people who seem to be wired in the same way I am. 
Thanks to the admins, and fellow members feel free to hit me up!
Joe

Welcome aboard.  You're only an hour+20 minutes from Lake Almanor.  If you come up here to chase trout and/or bass, feel free to give me a holler!

Welcome Joe!  Finally a fellow Wildcat!  I did the same, came up here for school and never left.  Now I work at the campus.  There are quite a few good fishing spots around here.   :secret  There's just never enough time to fish all of them.  Give me holler when you want to go.

Welcome Joe, I am up in paradise and just started kayak fishing this last year. The other month i just got myself a Cuda 14 and have been fishing with No Soup For You a couple times he has a lot of time in a kayak and always very helpful if you have any questions. Hit me up if you want to go fishing I am thinking about Lake Oroville this Saturday rain or shine.
