Hello everyone!

Just picked up my first set of kayaks and can't stop tinkering and researching about them! Picked up a wilderness system Tarpon 120 and a 100 for the wife. So far I have installed flush mount Rod holders on both and installed a fish finder on mine. Located in Marysville and have so far got a chance to hit up englebright and little Grass Valley with great success!  Why is this sport so addicting??!! Can't wait to tap some brains and post some trips!   :smt004

Welcome.  Yes it is an addiction. You made it past the first step in admitting it.  Don't worry about the other steps with this one and just have fun and stay safe out there.

Welcome to a great bunch of guys who can, and will, teach you the ropes. And yes it is addicting to get out and fish out of you kayak. Someday when we are all older there will probably be a support group formed for those of us who can no longer paddle/peddle :smt003
