Hey guys right now I'm running the idea of getting a kayak around in my brain. I'm looking for the coolest rigged ones so I could get some ideas for a safe and stable SOT that I can use to fish rips and near inlets. Can anyone help me with pics? thanks

:huh:What exactly are you looking for? Rod holders, anchor trolley systems, gear stowage, fishfiinder mounts? Give me a specific need, and I could maybe help some more. In the meantime, here's some pics.

Native Manta Ray kayak, talked to the guy who owns it, he's very happy with it. I had always heard good things about this kayak, but seen very few of them around. Nice design. :thumbsup:

I helped a guy carry his yak back to his car a few weeks ago. He was out in 3+ feet swells, and took a rough surf landing. He was a trooper though, handled it pretty well despite the waves crashing over him. :thumbsup:

These are some of the mods he did to his kayak, I thought they were pretty cool. He works with small pvc to make a basket to fit his crate in. I guess the reasoning behind that is that it's a more stable platform, and it gives you more area to run the bungees around and tighten things up. Nice meetin ya, man. :HappyWave:
