Hello, so glad to have become a member of this forum.

I don't have a long history of fishing or kayaking. My son and I started fishing last winter of 2023, and soon realized we wanted to be on the water and not just the banks. Then came the kayaks in earlier this June. Pictured here, was our first catches on the South Fork American River. Looking forward to reading about everyone's adventures.

We both have a Hobie Revolution 11.

Welcome Funkymonk, There are a bunch of members from the Sacramento area. I'm in Sac. If you're interested in trying for Trout and Kokanee, let me know. I'm going after them next weekend.

Welcome, RfR. Those are great first kayaks!

Thanks! Loving them so far. They were sold as a pair from a local on craigslist. I've had to learn how to tune-up the rudder, but so far so good.

Thanks for the offer Kevin! I'll definitely reach out. My son and I have been navigating the North and South arms of the American River, as well as Folsom Lake. As newbies, we're enjoying just being out there, but as I understand the fishing is pretty dismal in comparison to the delta.  Any guidance and recommendations would be awesome.

The trout and kokanee lakes are about 1.5 to 2 hours away in the Sierra foothills. I have a lake where I'm C-n-Ring 20-30 fish a day. I'll probably go Saturday the 9th. If you need info on tackle and rigging, let me know.

If you ever need any help with fine-tuning your Hobie, post something in the Hobie sub-forum. A lot of Hobie owners here--I've had a few, and currently pilot an AI.
