Thanks guys. That sounds like an awesome rig he's got for sale. A little outside of my budget at the moment. I've been doing the craigslist search and found some really sick deals. Malibus, cobras and wilderness systems seem to be the brands I've liked as far as price and reviews go.

Remember all the big fish are in la jolla.

I hope to get into some of those big fish really soon.

Well I picked up my yak today. It wasn't my first choice but at 300 dollars used I feel I got a lot of yak for my buck. Its a feel free gemini tandem and it looks as if it will serve my purpose well. And at 3 bills I feel I can try it out, find my own pros and cons and start the search for something better, or find I love the one I have. Now its time for mods. Anyone familiar with this specific model that has any suggestions?

Well you took the first step. I started out kayak fishing about six years now and I entered the world with a similar tandem. I can now tell you I am on my third and fourth kayak (ones the wifes

), and I am still dreaming of upgrading again. It is a great fishing platform, and you have stumbled onto a great community of like minded people.
