I'm glad that high tide is at 4 am this Friday night

I think some type of flashing light would work better

i said it before, the 50 minute trip south is worth it every minute. I hate that river. A-holes everywhere.

I can only fish weekends for the most part and will not go near that place even if I was guaranteed a keeper every night.

Don't think anyone has said this yet... GLAD YOUR OK!!

I have a harder time spotting dive flags than I do yakkers.

As a kayaker, I haven't had the chance to head out in the salt at night.
I do fish fresh at night, and whether it's day or night I will always be alert to ANY other watercraft in my vacinity. I will also make sure that I don't paddle wrecklessly, putting others as well as myself at risk.

I don't have a mounted light in the kayak, but I do bring a headlamp AND 2 flashlights.

I wouldn't dare venture out onto heavily trafficed waters at night without some kind of running light. I think of what the oncoming boater will see of me, and without a running light, it won't be much.
That would just be a recipe for disaster.

I also wear a life vest EVERY time I go out, be it salt or fresh.
