WTB Kayak for fishing

[CrankDD]

Hello Everyone! I’ve been lurking on here for a while, but posting for the first time.
After getting bit by the fishing bug, my friend kept on telling me how great it is fish on a kayak.

So I need a kayak setup, I have budget of $500.
Any good deals will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I ‘m in socal.

If you dont mind 2 seaters theres a tandum for $220 that would leave you with some extra cash for a bait tank seat or whatever you will need

The friend he was talking about is me, basically we were checking on craigslist almost everyday, and still couldn't find a deal we hoping to get.

So checking to see if anyone on BWE have any good kayak for sell with this price range, which haven't post online yet.

[CrankDD]

Yeah , have been watching CL for a few week .. either the seller want too much for what they have or its to big for me to transport. I try to get something 13' and under...

and I definitely would like to get one from the cool people of BWE.

I've got this used Tarpon 160i (16ft) that is collecting dust in my garage since I bought my new PA.





I got into the kayak fishing thing a year or so ago and the Tarpon served me well on many trips to LJ and the Bay, she's pretty quick and loaded for fishing. I paid $900 for it but would let it go to you for $500.

My Tarpon160i comes with;
Full foot operated rudder with upgraded cables
Hummingbird fishfinder / GPS
Hobie Livewell with paddle leash
Pelican cased 12V battery that powers both the Fishfinder and the Livewell (it stores up front under the hatch)
A Ritchie compass
3 Ram mounts With rod holders
A Comfy "crack of dawn" high back seat with a bag and two additional rod holders built into it.
A like new Warner Carbon fiber paddle I paid $189 for at OEX

I'm in the East County San Diego are (Lakeside / Santee) if interested just shoot me a msg with your # and I'll reply with pics this weekend (I got to take her down from the overhead in my garage).

Lot bigger then 13 and under

[slobslayer]

Wow!!! That's a deal I paid 700 for mine. Are you interested in parting out some stuff? Also how much of a difference does that rudder make?

[StinkyMatt]

If ANYONE is thinking about getting a kayak....GET THIS!


The bait tank is 250 alone!



Holy crap!


I give it 2 hours max!!!!!

[Chief Gunner]

CrankDD came by and picked up the 160I and all the accesories last night. I got some flak from the Wife for letting it go so cheap but I had my fun with it and it was not getting used like it used to.

He's just getting into the sport so I thought keeping it positive by giving him a killer deal was a good thing. I'm sure he's gonna love it's speed and getting towed by some beasts once he hooks up out there.

Just trying to pay it forward a little at a time whenever I can, what goes around comes around

[da22y]

Super deal !
$1000+ at least for just $500.
CrankDD wins a small lottery !

[YakNutz]

Way to hook him up!

[slobslayer]

that was very nice of you, but where were you a few months ago ha

[StinkyMatt]

Holy Cow!



You selling any real estate at these prices?

[CrankDD]

I really want to Thank Aaron and Greg for Hooking it up.
Now we have two more Guys ready to go Kayak fishing and a third is coming. I was a little worried about picking up two Kayak on a roof rack,
crossing my fingers not to lose one on the freeway.

It was a great trip to drive down to SD, get to see some of my freinds too. You guy really rock
Oh yeah lastly, did I score that BWE big F'king deal of the year? Hell yeah!

[Badtaste2k]

That was an amazing deal. Looks like you won't be winning the lottery any time soon since you've used up all your luck!
