Shweet...do you have leashes on the gps and vhf? I like the t bar..looks great

I just picked up a new Lamiglass blank, it is their new "kayak rod series" I will wrap it up over the winter...

A local guy in MSBA taught me, just another addiction...I have only done a couple of dozen so far. It is only my first year :) I can say all of the rods I use (8) are ones I have wrapped. It really is a great feeling to catch on a rod you built for yourself..

The rod on the left side looks like it could get pulled out by a fish, or possible bounce out in rough water. Have you had any problems or do you lash them into yak? :uhuh:

no those rod holders run pretty deep i suppose the smart thing would be to leash them

Everything should be leashed imho, one roll over and you will wish you did... paddle leash rod leashes.. I can turn my yak upside down and shake it, the only thing that is dropping out is me lol

I have never talked to anyone who fished from a yak,what's it like when you have a good size fish on? do you struggle to keep from tipping over?

Bill, it's awesome. You get towed around on a little Nantucket sleighride! Never had the concern about tipping, more concerned about how far the fish would take me! Farthest I figure I got taken was almost two miles by a 47" horse! Better with rudder, especially if they want to take you into the rocks....
