How many of you have flipped your kayak? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Those beach take-offs and landings are where I feel most prone to tip.

After almost 1 year of kayak fishing I lost gear in my only flip/roll on a beach launch. It's bound to happen.

I'm always watching for boat wake/swell so that I'm not caught by surprise while on the water.

I'd be curious to know if anyone's flipped a yak while fighting one of those big bruiser YT or WSB?
