HELP PLEASE - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Jr+2 · 01-25-2012, 10:28 PM

So bought kayaks at the malibu kayak sale and was so excitied to get out on the water until reality struck and I realized it was going to cost me the same for a seat and paddle as it did for the kayak.

I have been looking for something used for a while just to get on the water. While searching I found Hawii Kampo tall back seats brand new for 50$ on CL. I was just wondering if anybody has any info on that seat. Trying to use it for a X-factor. Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated as it's been killing me to just look at the kayaks with this nice weather. Once I get all of my gear I will be launching out of Redondo Beach King Harbor. Will be asking for tips when that time comes until then thanks for the info on the seat.

Don't know about the seat, but I have a stock Hobie paddle if you need one 25.00 in Newbury park....

I usually don't agree with anything Bus Kid says but this time he's right.

Wow tuna taxi, you're kinda sounding like Dave's BD avatar.

I agree here too. An uncomfortable Kayak seat can make for a very long day on the butt. I once bought a paddle on E-bay for $30 and honestly loved it more than the expensive ones.

I'm thinking of ordering one of these again as a backup paddle. Would have been nice to have last weekend. It's not too heavy and works great. Invest in a great paddle eventually though.
