Looks like a great time. I have yet to fish for Large Mouths from a kayak. Nice looking rods too!

i suck at bass fishing but still managed to get 7 fish, twice as many lost due to headshakes, jumps, and barbless hooks. great fun on the water, nice to pull on something in comparison to being skunked by the

twice at la jolla last week haha

Absolutely!!! I've got to be on my A game. Not to mention be in top shape both physically and mentally for the strenuous sport of Collegiate Bass Fishing! hahahaha (I plan to be on Baylor's bass fishing club/team)

To be honest, I've only met one other kid my age out there aside from 'fishinfreak'... I wish there were more young guns out there fishing!
Maybe some huge companies like Shimano and Hobie should throw tons of free gear my way and I'll advertise to the "younger"market!

Ahahaha Wishful thinking I guess!

You don't suck, you just haven't "honed your skills".

(now will you finally buy a hobie of your own?)
