Brand new to Kayaking. Advice?
Hey guys. Just picked up my first kayak (SOT model)and am planning on trying it out this weekend. I want to feel totally comfortable on it prior to taking it out fishing. Especially in the saltwater. I have a million questions and don't even know where to begin? Safety...rigging....preventing losing gear(if you flip),reentry if you flip..etc. I guess I'm just looking for everyones 2c worth of important advice. Can you guys give me some pointers? Some things like re-entry, I realize, are things I'll have to practice. I'm trying to sponge everything I can read about regarding safety first! Gear I can replace. But I'd like to prevent that ofcourse. Any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys! Bob
