This yak isn't a waste as I have four kids so it will be kept and used regardless. So what is an ideal length for a Yak? I'm 5'9 165lbs. Despite flipping and feeling discouraged I still had a good time, after I threw in the towel for the day, just an hour later I was disappointed and wanted to get back out there. My wife has been awesome and basically told me the same as some of you, just takes more practice. I'm impatient though and want to hit the open water for bigger fishing.  |
Glad you were wearing your vest. Sorry I misunderstood. As far as Hobies, I learned they are worth every penny if you plan on getting out into open waters. My friend and I fished the Port of LA yesterday and the winds kicked up in the afternoon. Long story short, I was making zero headway in my paddle yak and if he hadn't heroically towed my sorry butt back to the Cabrillo launch, I would still be out there this morning. I'll post more details when I have the time if he doesn't beat me to it.
