![]() I decided on the 2013 Hobie Pro Angler 14 for the simple fact I could not find a better platform to do ALL types of fishing, from inland lakes and ponds, to the SF bay. I hope to not only document the things I do to the yak in D.I.Y posts, but also learn a lot from the seasoned vets of kayak fishing. Here are a few pics. Cheers and tight lines! The day of pick up. Had to wait a week for the check to clear.... Just helped me scheme up the maiden voyage destination. ![]() Finally home safe in the garage. I have sitting on air filled camping pads front and back for now. Probably going to carve out my own saddles out of foam blocks in the near future. ![]() Installed the bimini top, mirage leash, paddle leash, and rod leash the day I got it ![]() Loaded up for the maiden voyage. ![]() Didn't focus on fishing too much as much as enjoying just being on the water the first time. ![]() The end of the beginning for me. ![]() And here are some recent catches of note in the past year or so before I got the yak. Here is a nice King Salmon I caught in October from a friends drift boat. ![]() A nice 8.6 lb momma bass from a pond in Carmichael, CA ![]() This was a "decent" catch for a day at Amador. ![]() 10.66LB Lake Amador trout caught from shore actually on 02-02-2013 ![]() Decent striper, crappy photo. ![]() Great day on the delta for going an hour before work. ![]() Shark ![]() More trout from Amador ![]() A ten pound natural steelhead from the American River ![]() I hope to become close with you guys and become a part of this forum for a long time. Nice to meet all of you. |

This is a very good post which I really enjoy reading. It is not every day that I have the possibility to see something like this.
