I'm bored...My favorite fish to catch and eat! Caught my first in mid 90's around 60#s and have three more over 50#s since. More times than not I will always bring home a dorado! Have yet to catch one from kayak,will try someday.

Lack of oxygen to the brain
Used to fly in the Air Force. They put you in a high altitude chamber to demonstrate loss of oxygen at altitude. It sort of stuck from there.

i got my first Hobie Outback back in 2003, when not many people knew much about the pedal drive yaks. So i thought i would use my name to "educate" various board members about these awesome devices. - LOLOL

Most of my friends call me Hudson and the nickname is from college. Around Y2K, I was helping a friend buy some furniture and he insisted it would take multiple trips to get it all home. I had faith in my little GMC Sonoma truck to carry it all and I did. He was impressed and grateful, so the name was born. As well, we lived in a second story place and after grocery shopping I'd load my arms with a ridiculous amount of bags, not wanting to make more than one trip. So there you go!

I used to go by FishFinder which was not all that creative in the 1st place, I didn't have one then and prided myself on being able to find the fish without it :D. Really I was just broke and couldn't afford one, of course I regularly use a Fish Finder now.
Then I would be fishing and people would come up to me and ask me if I was FishFinder, with my heavy image post this came sort of regular people recognizing me on the water. Thought it was strange so I just changed my handle to my Shortened Name Joe (Joseph) Beck (short for a very long last name 1st 4 letters Beck). |
sealyin (pronounced Sea Lion). The name of our old cabin cruiser that had a silhouette of a CA sea lion on the stern but the word play was about "the big fish that got away"! Kept the name after the boat went away........one of the two happiest days in a boat owners life :D
|
Completely related to fishing..
(my middle name..) Jason "Wade" H. it took a few years, & once my fishin' buddies found out my hidden middle name, they would only call me by my middle name from there on out...:p |

One of my other passions in life is surfing and one of my favorite things about surfing is finding myself in a nice barrel (tube). I don't get many big barrels these days but I did grab a few small barrels last summer in the Mentawai Islands:) I'm rolling with 40 is the new 20 and hoping to find a bigbarrel in the near future http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...5/MG_04961.JPG |
Epic backhand shack Bigbarrels! :cheers1:
I love to fish, but if the surf is firing i'm on it and I have 2 young groms so, surfdad just sounded right. |
I was the youngest to work at Turner's Outdoorsman in Kearny, started at 18. I was nicknamed Kid. After fishing all my life (literally) and becoming successful in the catching part of it and wanting some prestige settled on The Kid. Always will be too.
|
Umm, unfortunately I didn't have to get all that creative to come up with mine
|
If you have to ask.........

my username?
it's not because i smell... i don't think.
:) it's my fishing skillz! |
Rusty was my nickname since birth. The name must have jinxed me cause I'm a little Rusty (sloppy, goofy and out there) at times, especially on the water at night when I get that "light" buzz going so I can sleep with balloons out, in those arctic conditions we've had lately. I'm also called Russell, Russ, and Russell Andrew is reserved for when my wife is on my case.

When I was a deckhand out of Dana Wharf I had a big goatee, a big lifeguard hat and smoked a pipe. Late for work one day and the captain asked if my horse died. After a few minutes of looking blankly at him, he asked if I was Amish. I'm glad that name stuck because I was also Edward Wristbands and Special Ed.
|
I got mine form one of my Marines on my first Deployment on ship. Zurc = Cruz my last name backwards. simple enough:)
|
my nic started from offroad desert riding and racing district 38 races. plus it's also part of my surname. it kind of applied to fishing so i kept it. keeping my nic also helped me refind friends that now kayak fish on this board. it's a small world :cheers1:

I am a high end professional nature photographer for more than 30 years, (check out my cute baby seal photos, ;) ) I bought the kayaks to have fun with the family and for photography. THEN, I found out about Kayak Fishing, well I'm hooked :) |
Shit...I don't even have a yak anymore and I still am addicted to this *&^%ing board!
|
I hope Kailolo means water- or ocean-crazy in Hawaiian! I was enamored with Hawaii after our first visit there many years ago. Got to order a new Hono wave decal for the yak.
|
My first kayak was a Pelican Castaway. I bought it on the cheap and rigged it on the cheap. Now I could be called "CheapMalibu"

Moemvasia is a location in Greece on the Peloponnese where my family came from...on the ocean the area means "one way". I americanized it to Monovasia.

Mine was an easy choice,My last name is Riskey and water is the place my soul belongs.Surfing ,freediving and kayak fishing .I have never hit the water for the sake of paddling ,the reward is catching fish .Living off the bounty of the ocean .Eat what you catch and feed those that don't !!! Long range kayaking is pure joy ,whether its off shore or covering coastline to the next camp site .Mi amore es la mares !!!

HamachiJohn. My name is John, and I love hamachi. It's a very boring name and my wife thinks it's lame and that I should change it. In La Jolla, it may be even more boring with the abundance of YT, but up here in norcal, it's a name to be remembered by... |
Bump
A lot of new members. Always curious to hear of their username origins :) |
I used to drive way too fast even did some autocrossing back in the day. For alot of years sport bikes were a passion of mine. I wanted something descriptive of my personality and wanted to have some personal identification with out anouncing my whole name all the time so speedy with my initials became it. So many years ago... Its certainly not because of my paddling speed thats sort of ironic. :rolleyes:Darren
|
Mine originated from the joke:
"What do you call a deer with no eyes? No eye deer (No Idea) What do you call a deer without legs and no eyes? Still no eye deer ( Still no Idea)" lots funnier when your drunk. So Back in my youngin days I always came up with get rich skims and it always failed. The name of my so called company was "oneyedeer" shorten from "one eye deer" because I believed all it takes to make is one idea. Lol many years later I found out you make money through hard work and a job. Well not that hard but a job is nice :) |
