Hello Everyone!

My name is Brian, I currently reside in Reno NV, I have a wife and 2 kids and family that lives on the coast in Newport OR. and I have crabbed and fished there for many years.  I Can't begin to tell you how excited I am to be a part of this group! I literally just purchased a 2018 Hobie Outback with the intent of fishing like a maniac out of it! haha! Eddy Willis from Edub outdoors has been a huge inspiration! I am anxious to learn the ropes of coastal kayak fishing as well as inland fishing!

I really look forward to making some new fishing buddies and developing relationships!

Any tips or advice for a new coastal angler is greatly appreciated! I have good gear, an NRS Chinook PFD, Drysuit, etc. etc. etc.....where I need help will be primarily on fishing tackle and gear as well as techniques.

I appreciate any and all input you can provide!

Thank you in advance, and again i'm really excited to be a part of this group!!

Cheers!

Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say:
Some things in life are bad.
They can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
Don't grumble. Give a whistle.
And this'll help things turn out for the best. And

Always look on the bright side of life.
