Got the best birthday present so far,
Wife let me purchase first ever water vessel, guess all my "subtle hints" finally pushed her over the edge. She said we both had to be able to use it. After researching and finally making a decision, went with the Jackson Big Tuna in Forest camo. Will be getting this on the water next weekend hopefully, it is going to be burning a whole in that work bench. Not going to fish first time out, just get it one the water and paddle to see how it handles.
If anyone in the KC area fishes the local smaller lakes (Lenexa, Olathe, Gardner, Johnson County parks) let me know. It would be nice to go with some guys that have more experience to learn from. I wont feel comfortable with bigger lakes till I have made a few trips on smaller ones, but eventually hope to get out on Hillsdale, La Cyange, and other local lakes that are good for bass fishing.
Any tips you guys can give me on kayak fishing to get me started would be greatly appreciated...
