Attempting to Drown myself - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I agree to start in the bay. I believe you said that your kayak is only 10 feet long? That would be kind of small to fish in the ocean but then again I have never used a kayak that small maybe it can be done.

A good start would be to practice flipping and then getting back into your kayak.

Also I think you should fish in the bays and lakes first to get your sea legs.

My guess is after a few months to a year you will get a different kayak as everyone does it.

When you are ready to fish in the ocean after some experience then practice surf launches with a bigger kayak.
