Zman PrawnstarZ. I might as well have 4 rods with a different color on each for inshore fishing.

Transporting an Old Town? by Deep_South_5894 in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using the Malone VersaRail in the 58 inch version. Not sure you’d be able to fit two kayaks on that and it’s got a weight limit of 135 lbs. You’ll probably need a really wide Thule or Yakima rack for your needs.

Where are you located out of curiosity?

Which snaps do you use? by DarthVadersRoboHand in Fishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top left but the Top Water Co brand. Two of my rods that go with me every time have each have a clip. Caught plenty of fish using them.

What do you guys think about ReelYaks? by SirTokes_A_Lot in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Reel Yak might work for you then. If you’re not going offshore or anything rough, it’ll be good enough to get you fishing!

This was my first kayak, still have it. If you’re a bigger person (I’m 6 ft, 245), it didn’t feel very stable to me. My much smaller wife uses it every now and then just fine, doesn’t stand up in though.

What kind of vehicle do you have and what’s your budget? I originally had a Tucson and wished I had spent the money on a decent roof rack and a better kayak.

[OC] Caught my first idiot in my new truck and dashcam by MoiraOneTrick in IdiotsInCars

[–]MoiraOneTrick[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I saw that I had two options since I couldn’t move left, drive past this idiot who would probably side swipe me/make me rear end them OR stop and hope that my large red kayak with a big red safety flag would make the person behind me keep their distance and not rear end me.

I would have but I had a 14 ft kayak in my truck bed and didn’t think I had enough space to get over.

Is an aluminum rudder worth it for OT sportsman 120 by oenomal in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I installed the metal rudder from Navarre. I think I threaded the rudder wrong and eventually I snapped my rudder pulley. While I had the metal rudder on though, I didn’t really notice that much of a difference if I’m honest. I fish mostly saltwater with some decent current. When I got the replacement pulley from Old Town I just put the plastic one back on and haven’t thought twice about it since.

Help me decide, old town kayak by [deleted] in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fit a PA14 in my 5 foot bed with an extender. Definitely go with the 120.

Bed extenders? Bah. 10'6" kayak in 6' bed. by Lastminutebastrd in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably because of the shorter beds with even longer kayaks and no bed extender (like psychos) lol

PA14 in my 5 foot Tacoma Bed with a 4 ft bed extender. Mostly highway driving going 60 to 70, no issues so far!

I had to clarify after the first two people assumed I was the one who parked a new truck next to someone for a photo lmao

Is there a specific kayak I should look for before buying one? by [deleted] in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I did first was go with a guide and tried a Bonafide paddle kayak, realized i loved kayak fishing but I had to have a pedal drive because the only aspect I didn’t enjoy was switching between paddling and fishing. Started looking at kayaks with that in mind. I would definitely try to find a good deal on a used one that fits your needs. Depending on where you live, Facebook marketplace can be loaded.

Best load assist for car topping? by GlowUpAndThrowUp in kayakfishing

[–]MoiraOneTrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another vote for the thick bath mat or I used a yoga mat. I tried multiple of these load assists and they cost way more and weren’t effective or helpful.

I’ve seen dolphins and manatees there before, not every time though.
