I've been wanting to carry out a kayak when I head out a few miles or amybe more, but have yet to do it. I will be fishing a good bit, hopefully, through the month of June. I need to increase my phone list on people to contact for trips and thought a few people might be interested in the idea a hooking a monster amberjack from a kayak. Again, I'm just curious if anyone would want to carry out there kayak in my boat, only to be dumped out to fish. Any potential takers?

Sign me up. I've been trying to arrange a mothership trip for a couple of years. Most folks think I'm nuts.

if the water was flat I would be up for it ....

Think safety gear and be sure you're 100% on deep water re-entry before you think about it.

| I bought two rods for this two years ago and have been itching for that chance. You get ready to pull the trigger shoot me a pm. I'd love to get in on this. TB....on your advice, I practiced deepwater reentry last summer on a rushing outgoing tide. stillwater takes a couple practice runs, a rushing tide complicates things a bit. |

I am down. I have tried to make this kind of trip happen and it never seems to work out. Depending on how far out you run, the mahi are supposed to be a blast from a yak! I have the gear and the perfect yaks for trolling.

Tommy,
When I first met Jordan he spoke of you and got me thinking about this. We'll do it very soon, thinking mid April to give everyone a few more species to play with.

Anyone else interested just shoot me a pm with your phone # and your level of experience on the yak. What I mean about that is I'm willing to do it, but have virtually no experience. When "we" do this, SAFETY is priority #1, plain and simple. I'm thinking mid to late April will be a good starting time with everything peaking mid May. I promise, someone will get a least a shot at this.

Thanks for all the pms. I've taken some fishing vacation and the days that I'll have available (wx cooperating) are 4/24-4/28, 4/30-5/2, 5/7-5/10, 5/16-5/18, and 5/23-5/26. When it gets closer to those dates, I'll start sending out pms a few days in advance to see who is free. Really looking forward to watching ya'll get towed around!

We need to compare notes to decide the best way to strap a yak to your rig. I've got a couple of ideas.
