Hey all!

I've been a daily reader on this site for a good 4-5 months now.  I'm a life long fisherman and have never had a boat.  I just bought an OK Trident 13 and will be joining in all the fun as soon as it arrives!  I live in Alameda and will look to be hooking up with folks on lakes at first to get my skillz all mad crazy and such and then eventually move out to the big water.  But for now I'm scared of the ocean, so I'm not touching it!!

Just wanted to say hey, thanks for all the info and great board, and looking forward to more fun!

Best,

Welcome!  I'm a newbie as well, so I'll be hitting up lakes around the bay area for a while until I'm comfortable enough on the kayak to hit the ocean.  Maybe I'll see you out there sometime.  There's a lot of useful information to be found here and a great community to back it up, so you've joined the right place! 

Tight lines!
