Do you run the antennae through the scupper, or off the back?

Sometimes thro the TW scupper, but I havent done that for awhile as it takes up tw space and if the yak flips its outta the water. I have  cleat just aft of the seat . Tied a piece of rope to it and lash it there. Tried thro the footwell scupper, but because of water in it I get shocked when its there..

I have been attaching it to my ankle and running it through the footwell scupper hole or tossing it over the side after clearing the surf. That way if I get dismounted, the shield goes with me. If I am paddling in kelp, I throw it over the side to reduce resistance.  I wear neoprene socks with light feltsole wading boots which insulates me from the shock. When I first got the shield, I ran it through the tankwell scupper hole and when I reached back to get my game clip I got juiced.

OK - I am going to go ahead and purchase one, and take the ankle approach.  Any recommended vendors?

I think you can get one directly from Spike.....

whenever you're ready to shoot Bradah'Bryce.....there is a public access point, that puts us on the beach, right in front of "theSpot" = then they(DSC Chan.) can buy it from you,,,since i did mention "Shark Week" in my post-encounter OTW vid'shoot.  

Discovery Channel has my contact info......they were the only ones that I thought would want to hear the Real_FisHunter version, but they have not called. Which is cool....i'm not looking for fame at all.

Reading that, then checking out the rest of BWE just made me super glad that we have the community we have here. That site seems to be dying off just like kayak4fish is. Where do most Southerners post now? Or do they just not have the community that we have here?

Yeah Dustin the guys on this site are great and consistently post good reports and get together to fish.
Only other site I have seen is one in Sydney, Australia that has a tight nit group of folks...

That's on my bucket list....fish in a yak in Australia! See some sharks for sure then.
