Hard earned hali - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

That sucks. A PA is still a kayak and susceptible to flipping. I don't want to sound like an ass hole but ever one should practice righting and surfing their kayak with out gear, no matter what type. A while back a buddy of mine flipped out in the middle of SD Bay. He is a strong swimmer and life long surfer but had no idea how to right his kayak. I helped him with his gear and talked him through the re-entry. I've given kayak tours to total newbies on the east and west coast and seen plenty of roll overs. Find a pool or go on down to Tidelands Park and practice. No surprise is the best surprise. This video is pretty good. Mike
