OG Kayak Setup for La Jolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Great reminder from Chris. As the lawyers and logicians might put it: "Fancy gear may be sufficient, but it isn't necessary!"

My first setup was a 1990s OK Malibu 2 with two rod holders. No FF. Fishing by guesswork. Chris was there when I caught my first ever YT on it using a ~$100 lever drag setup with a wobbly handle.

That boat is still in my garage for when friends and family want to join me for a fish!
