well im indestructible, invincible, immortal, however you look at it and i carry one. its a cobra, water proof, floats and bright orange. I even remember to charge it sometimes. it's tons of fun to sit in the kayak at around 8am and listen to all the chatter on 72 about the "bite yesterday" then get on and say something like " you should have been here at 3am, wide open seabass and got a yellow over 40 at first light..." then listen to all hell break loose.

i actually seen a guy do that. he was in a center console and i was about 20 yards away fishing the kelp and we were talking and he says, "watch this".. gets on there, gives them some numbers of some "fish he caught about 15 mins ago" and 4 or 5 boats went over. we started laughing and they came on the radio about 30 minutes later and were hooking up on yellows in the 20-30lb range. we could see the birds diving and fish busting and the entire fleet pulling anchore. i laughed but he was pissed.
