Hey gang.
New kid on the Brissy block.
Started with beachfishing the tailor this season. Massive hookup got me fixed on fishing. Decided I needed to get out further. Bought a Prowler 4.5E last week. Its awesome. Built a down-wind sail for it yesterday, wish me luck!
Gonna hit the pelagics this summer. Just getting my gear together.
I don't really know what I'm doing, but I figure if i dress up like a seal (in my wetsuit), get the water all bloody, paddle out a k or 2, and thrash about - what could go wrong!
I'm not here for the scenery, so I've never used anything less than 50lb braid.
You've been warned
John

Hey John,
Nice kayak mate, certainly up to the task of chasing pelagics out in the bay.
If you haven't already, go over to this forum and sign up, say g'day and have a good read.

Another Yak owner on here well done. Next time you head out using that special fish finding technique of yours would you mind if I come along. Just to be helpful I could tie a safety line to you (just in case you got tired like), now all I've got to do is work out how to mount an alvey deck winch to my kayak. Oh and by the way a couple of big hooks hanging off your wetsuit wouldn't bother you too much would it? 8-) ;)
