Ten Years Ago....
We used to fish in the Salt Water on a regular basis and I had the old Tarpon 160i rigged to slay 'em. This Sit on Top kayak was a rocket on the water, fast and stable and I loved this platform for Salt Water and Large Bodies of Fresh Water as well. It had a sleek Hull, was Fast to get up to speed from a dead stop, and would Glide well and was easy to paddle long distances when you were trolling a bait behind you....
As you can see, we didn't take our safety lightly either. Bold Colors, Radios, and plenty of emergency equipment. Inside the hull we had flares and dye for the water if we needed to mark our location. I love the way these pictures turned out, which is why they are in the photography section rather than fishing. I always took the camera along. One thing about kayak fishing, if the fish weren't biting, it was still a great day kayaking, and there was always something to shoot... pictures of.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Colfisher,
We have been rigging them for more than fifteen years, if you have questions, feel free to pm, i'll send you my number. Lol.
Tina ran the YakAttack tourney for years, as the company owner has been a friend since before there was a company.

Re: Ten Years Ago....
We would mainly haul the kayaks to VaBeach / Norfork area when we wanted to fish Salt water... Rudee Inlet, Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel, Kiptopeake's Concrete Ships... so many memories. We also hauled them to FL for various Charity tournaments, and vacations. I do miss it, but we can't look back at what we could do... only look forward to the things we still can.
