Hello all,

Hello ALL!
My name is Juan but most people call me John. I am new to kayaking-total newb, but I plan on renting a few kayaks reading more threads on here before making a purchase. I am not new to fishing but am new to salt water fishing and crabbing wich I have fallen in love with. I am from San Jose, but currently live in redwood city.
I wish to meet some of you soon in the water, or shore!

Thanks,
John

Welcome john

Lol, yes i am expecting it! I do not have many "fishing" friends, so im pretty excited to say the least. I know salt water fishing is a whole new world and im not including kayaking. Im sure once i get my gear and setup, this new hobby will take most if not all of my other hobbies time.
BRING IT ON! lol

Thanks gents!

Any one know of a good place to rent or demo Kayaks? The only one ive run into is hmbk(Half Moon Bay Kayak) and I believe they had only one fishing kayak. But they did offer a deal where they provide you crabbing gear and rent it for 110 for four or five hours.

Come down Santa Cruz way & try one out at Kayak Connection in the Santa Cruz Harbor!

Welcome, Juan.  We're pretty advanced and calls Juan's Juan here!     If you jaunt us to.   

Seriously though, you found the right place, and it sounds like you're psyched to get a great start in the sport. 

If you're coming to Humboldt I can get you on a number of different boats to try out.  Maybe we'll meet at Shelter Cove for the tournament in May.   

Welcome! Best place to learn new things and having a great time with everyone! See you on the water!

Thanks in advance.

I don't work for them ... just know their staff & owner.  I bought 3 of my kayaks from them over the years.  They are located on the East side of the Harbor, not on the wharf.  They sell & rent all sorts of kayaks & paddleboards.  Good supporters of our group too!

Welcome
