New Kayak Owners???
 

I know there are a few of you who purchased a kayak late in the season and were unable to join in with the "Yak Rats" as yet......maybe we could hear from a few of you (you know who you are??) who may be thinking of joining us this upcoming season!!!!:uhuh:

Ok Ill go first.
Im not brand new to kayak fishing. I have done freshwater kayaking fishing before.
But I will be new to kayaking in the salt.
Missed most of the season becuase
I was in Iraq. And got into surf fishing after I got back.
I got a hobie over the winter and cant wait to get it out there.
Looking forward to doing some mods to it during the winter.
Look forward to meeting any of the yak rats I dont know.
Hopefully Ill see you out there.

P.s. I am on the yak rats fb page.

I still feel new because I missed the spring and started late... went on 4 outings with Yak Rats ..Great group and safety in numbers .. Like when I rolled in the mouth of the North River 1st time out ..Nice to have another Yak Rat come to my rescue and roll also .:biglaugh:.. good times .. It was all down hill from there . Hi Greg ..

I am not new to kayak fishing, but have never had the chance to get out with you "Rats". Looking forward to fishing with some new south shore guys, both fresh and salt. Soon to be retired, so will have plenty of time.

Lets make that happen Frogman Ch....you live too close by for it not to happen!:uhuh:

Larry,

I have had a kayak for a few years, and still pretty much a newbie.. I usually go out on my own ( not that often) It would be great to try some new places, and meet up with some of the guys for the "yak scrambles"

Bazza the more the merrier! We look forward to it!!:uhuh:

yakaholic
 

Hi I'm Matt and I'm a yakaholic was following the yak rats from a far this fall was tied up with my grandsons football every Sat. this past fall. I would like to get involved in some scrambles in the spring. Looks like fun.

Welcome Matt! Keep in touch with the season approaching right here......before you know it we will be out there (though it won't come soon enough for me!) we look forward to having you come along!:uhuh:

There will be a North Shore Scramble.....This I vow.

I will be there Kev! Still waiting to hear some kayak chatter from the Boss Man!:uhuh:

Bossman is so beyond stoopidly busy this time of year. In fact only kayak happening for me right now is to send a rectangular piece of paper to BigBo.

And there he is Ladies and gentleman......and fellow "Yak Rats"......hopefully joining us next season in his new kayak.....the Boss-Man!!!:buds:

John got a kayak!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

:uhuh: :rotf2:

Thanks Larry lookin forward to it seems like a good time with good company

Oh we laugh our asses off! We had some great outings last season!:uhuh:

It's never going to get here. I think we will be launching through the snow in July. :fury::crying:

WHICH YAK TO BUY?
 

I posted about the Ascend 10, but as yet have not bought a YAK. I had a Heritage 12, but sold it a couple of years ago due to bulging discs. I am 90% recovered now and thinking of buying another YAK. Mostly light use in the bay or a river or lake.

Let's here some suggestions form the experienced guys.
Thanks:fishin:

Jim check out the NEKF website! newenglandkayakfishing.com Lots of great info there and a more diverse group of yak fishermen and owners that may be able to answer in regards to that brand of kayak!:uhuh:

Hobie Adventure Fishing Kayak
 

hope to join you rats this year
let me know where and when
thank you

Looking to get out with you guys this year. Bought an OK 15 last year and got out just a few times. Life seems to get in the way sometimes. Can’t wait for the spring Blues on the cape to “bring back that fishing feeling”!

spring blues on the cape could be a good spring scramble!

You guys make it down to SoCo,RI at all?

I'll join you guys if your down the cape. I got extra yaks if someone new wants to try kayak fishing out before they buy also. I have a Tarpon 120 and Freedom Hawk 14 around for use.
