This was my first trip out with my Yak. You can see my buddy Splitshot on his ODC. It was fun and we caught a few fish but had just as much fun scootin' down the riffles and enjoying the weather. It was cool out for sure!

Looks like a blast Don, where were you guy's? Chuck
Chuck,
We fished Elkhorn. I really liked the float it was nice to just sit back and chill out.
Yep, there was plenty of water and it was a cool ride...
That first splash of water on my lap was EYE-OPENING on such a cool morning. :D
I'm ready to do it again!
Bump here it is Boat Bum.

Very nice! With those rods sticking out it looks like some bug antennas! LOL...
Seriously I have two on mine but am thinking of adding another toward the front so I can angle them down along the yak and reach forward to get another rod easily.
The ones behind me are harder to access.
I put the ones in front just to have a place to stick a rod when changing lures, releasing a fish etc... and normally only have the left or right one in, but I have been know to troll will all four lines out and have caught some good fish doing just that. I have even used planer boards, really no limit to what you can do with these kayaks. well, you know that. They are a lot of fun and a good work out.
I stay as snug as a bug in a rug in the winter time in this thing. Freezing line and cold hands are the limiting factor. I do have a hard time turning around to get at the rear hatch and rod holders when I have all the cold weather gear on + a life jacket. I've learned to reach back and grab the rods without looking at them, less turning/ twisting.
Yep I'm not as limber as I used to be so I try and keep everything in front of me or by my feet.
