Color me jealous! Congratulations. I hope you can load the yak on the KW, then anchor the boat, launch the yak and fish.
If you’re lucky enough to be fishing, you’re lucky enough.
That is my plan…! Believe this or not, but I have never even been in a kayak, but I just knew it was for me… I did a lot of research for bout eight months and talked to as many people as I could to help me decide what kind of kayak I wanted. Just waiting on one of the roof rack parts and I will pick it up next week and then I’m off and gettin in the river…!

I appreciate that. I’m really looking forward to catching my first red from my new kayak. Will pick it up after the right parts finally come in for my roof rack system.
FINALLY got my kayak today…! I"m ready to put it in the water and catch some fish…!
Lets see some pics of it. Brand new and all slimed up.

PS: Good crew in here and my daughter just moved from TN to Charlotte. So, now I have BOTH NC and SC Annual NR Licenses and I fished in Lake Wylie on the NC/SC border just west of their home last Wed…need to learn more about that whole area!!
Also, while driving home to JAX on Friday it struck me how STUPID I was not stopping by Beaufort or Charleston or someplace and fish with you locals in that area…DUH!! [:0]
