Paul, Thank you for the work you do in Afghanistan. Happy Veterans day too!
As for your kayaks, when you get back to the states safely, plan on checking out this site and craigslist for yaks. You will probably have a budget and I'm sure you will find something that meets it. Keep reading these posts, study up and when you return let the forum know and I'm sure you'll have all the help you need to get you on the water and into fish. |

When you get here I'd be more than happy to show you around San Diego bay. It's a great place to get started. Bit of a drive from Escondido but well worth it to get used to the feel of the water.

Thanks guys. I definitely can't wait. I'm leaning more towards a peddle yak. Maybe a PA if I'm comfortable on it and comfortable transporting it, I know its heavy. Any suggestions on rods and reels for fishing the bay? In addition to terminal gear. I don't have any issues with conventional reels but my girlfriend will probably need a spinning combo to start. I don't want her to get discouraged with bird nests.

I just moved to San Diego from Pensacola FL . I did quite a bit of kayak fishing out there but never on the west coast. I have a pro angler 12 and really like it. Its currently In AZ with all my fishing gear though. Probably wont get it till the beginning of next year once Im settled in. ANy ideas when you might be back ?
Id like to join ya in the bay to work up my west coast experience. stay safe and look forward to seeing ya on the water. |
