Hello everyone! New here. Starting my trek on researching, testing, and finding my fishing kayak. Have fished a few times from rented or borrowed kayaks, but have much to learn.

Hana paa was the first handle of a dear founding member of this little community. He was later known as "Mooch" and you'll soon see he was instrumental in creating this site as it is today.

treat the handle well, and welcome.

Wow, very interesting on the history of Mooch's original handle. I will definitely keep that in mind. At the same time, I'm not worth of being linked with any of the pioneers of the forum/community. I guess no pressure, eh?
