Hello All...New to NCKA

Hello everyone....its been a few weeks since I've joined and been overwhelmed with the amount of information that's available on the site.  Just wanted to drop a line and say hi to all the NCKA members.  I've been fishing for a long time but never from a kayak.  Matter of fact, I don't own a kayak yet, but just thought this site would be the place to start to get me in the right direction.  I'm in the market for a pedal driven kayak, new or used.  If anyone is planning on selling their setup in the coming months, please feel free to shoot me a PM. 

In any case, looking forward to reading all the useful information provided on here and you can bet that you'll be hearing a lot from me once I purchase my kayak and have it up and going.  Hope to meet some of you out there someday.  Peace.

Welcome Aboard. You chose the right place.

  Welcome Aboard .....

WTTMadness!!  now all you need is that Yak

Welcome and hope to see you on the water soon.

Matter of fact, I don't own a kayak yet, but just thought this site would be the place to start to get me in the right direction. 

Meh.....makes no difference now, once you make you're first post you're doomed.  You'll soon own several and more gear than you can shake a stick at 



.............welcome.

Welcome aboard.

Bassman welcome.   First thing I thought of when I saw your name was the Seinfeld episode when Kramer gets the ASSMAN liscence plates.   
Hahaha. Welcome dude...

Welcome aboard and to the MADNESS Bassman408 

Welcome bassman408!

Where in the 408 are you?  I'm in San Jose off of 280 & 87.

Thanks for the welcome everyone, I feel like at home already.  And yes, I am already part of the madness...Getting a kayak and on the water is all I can think about lately ever since I found this site!! haha.

@agarcia - I'm doomed already...I'm already making plans on selling off some of my freshwater bass fishing gear to make room & funding for ocean fishing gear, since I've been spending more time ocean fishing lately.

@dilbeck - nice to meet a fellow 408er.  I'm in Santa Clara, off San Tomas & El Camino.  I am very familiar with the area you live as I fish Almaden Lake and the local ponds in the area quite often.

I know your heart is set on the dark side but I have a prowler 13 you can use if you just feel the need to get on the water.
Welcome to the madness

bassman, have you had a look at Hobie's Pro Angler yet? 

@atavuss - yea, I've seen the Pro Angler...its awesome and I would love it, unfortunately a little out of my budget range.  However, I am looking into other hobie kayaks.

@KayakJames - lol, darkside...i'm assuming thats the pedal driven kayaks?  Thanks for the offer, I might actually take you up on it.  Looks like you're in Hayward, which is fairly close by.  Shoot me a PM anytime if you want some company on the water, I'd be more than willing to try out your prowler 13.  At first, I was actually looking at the prowler 13, until I realized that I might want another method of movement in case my arms get too tired.  In any case, I really appreciate the offer.

all I can say is wow, this forum is awesome!!  everyone here seems so friendly compared to any other forum I've been on...LOL.  good vibes!

Not having lived here all that long, I know the general area where you live.  Hope to catch up with you on the water!

Yup, you nailed it.  It's a pretty tight community we have here.  We have our disagreements, usually during the winter, but they're far and few between.
