Newbie to Saltwater kayaking

I have mainly fished from a boat my whole like or a canoe but very little from a kayak and I have never fished saltwater from a kayak. I am getting ready to buy a Johnson Big Rig and am looking for insight as to what gear and safety gear I should purchase to be able to safely fish saltwater. My goal is to fish the Charleston jetties. Any help would be appreciated.

You should join the Lowcountry Kayak Anglers club. See their forum below.
They will hook you up


2000 SeaPro 180CC w/ Yammy 115 2 stroke
1966 13’ Boston Whaler w/ Merc 25 4 stroke “Flatty”

Come out to a future club event…they are open to the public! We get folks that come around and take a look at our rigs and ask a lot of questions - you’d be more than welcome.
