Hello all...new to the forum. 30yrs +/- passionate pursuit of anything with fins or claws. Mostly fresh water between the bay to Tahoe. Tinkered with Kayaks for about 5 years (mostly trolling and crabbing). Just stepped up to the plate and bought a new Outback. I’m looking to get advice on gear and hopefully learn enough to get after rock fish in the new kayak. Looking forward to some friendly banter and getting some advice.

Welcome to the forum. Advice....if you are going out in the ocean make sure to wear protective gear in the form of a wet or dry suit.

Hey Rybo,

By the way, are you a wolf/horse whisperer?

Just trying to figure the Tapatalk out here folks...many of the posts and even some of my own say content not available. Am I on probation or is this a messed up setting?  Hard to converse when it’s one way. Thx!

Rybo,  your post Count is six and five of them are on this thread. I don’t know what you can’t see. Maybe you’re Cray Cray.  Sirius Lee though I’ve never installed tapstalk because I’ve heard it has issues. Maybe someone more familiar with it will chime in

Skip Tapatalk and just use a browser for access. That will confirm for you that Tapatalk sucks.
