Hey everyone!

My Name is Josh, I am from New Orleans and am a kayak fishing addict. My girlfriend got a job in Fresno, and I should be spending a good amount of time out there for the foreseeable future. I'll be arriving this Aug 30- till about Sep25.

Looking to get on some fish and meet some new kayak fisherman. I won't have my own boat in Fresno yet, so I'll be looking to rent a boat and possibly do some guided trips. Any help and hints are much appreciated. I plan on fishing offshore and inshore lakes, and will have a lot of free time if anyone needs a sidekick.

Also, if you are ever in New Orleans I would be glad to put anyone on some fish. I run a kayak swamp tour and kayak fishing service down here. www.wildlouisianatours.com

welcome to Fresno...the middle of  California...where it takes 3 hrs to go to the ocean :) There are a ton of lakes around here to target so all is not lost :) Fall is around the corner and now that school is back in session, the higher lakes should be lice free :)

let me know if you need any tip or help :)
