I'll toss in my 2 cents. You don't have to be a huge hurry to get every thing on the kayak. For sure life jacket is essential. You might want to fish your kayak a few times and find out how and where you want things, and if you need them at all. If you're super new to kayak fishing you might want to start in the bay with one rod and one plano box and move up from there as you get more confident and experienced. Just a thought. Mike

more tackle, more time to fish.

if the stealth has the pluming installed, you are best off to get a bait tank timer

I agree. You really won't know what works or doesn't work for you until you are on the water.

-You're going to need a second job.
-If you're married you will need a third job: one to pay for your kayak accessories and the other to pay for the gifts you'll need to buy your wife so she can leave you alone while you work on your yak.
-There are only 24hrs in a day, you need to find a way to stretch that to 35hrs a day.
-Almost forgot the most important one: patience you'll need lots and lots of patience.

P.S.
