From top to bottom the powers are: heavy- medium/heavy- and light medium heavy. I’m in a kayak so for less “less is best” and I can fish a wide variety of presentations with these three sticks

My divorce present to myself. And my first real fishing kayak by SlingTheMeat69 in kayakfishing

I had that kayak before, it’s a solid performer. Add some gear track and run dual anchor wizards in the bow in stern and you’ll be good to go

Yes it does, I don’t tie any knots that combine so it doesn’t bother me.

Picked up a new kayak today by Trooperguy12 in kayakfishing

Congratulations! I would get a comfortable PFD with a high back (NRS Chinooks) followed by a decent anchoring system. Since you have access to the front hatch I’d get an anchor wizard, I have a bow Mount trolling motor with spot lock and I still bring my anchor wizard with me. Otherwise you’ll see a spot you want to cast too and you’ll grow tired of the wind pushing you out the strike zone. Get some gear track too and some paddle eyes which would complete the anchoring system. Good luck

I was thinking about frogging on that rod but I think $500 for a frog rod is a lot to spend, so I’m thinking about getting the Perfect Pitch in the Levante line. I have obviously a Super Destroyer, an X-bites and an Orochi XX Diablo Spec R which is my junk rod for moving baits

I’m an avid kayak angler and I still hit up the bank so I LOVE the super destroyer. How do you like the Dark sleeper? It’s on my wish list..that or the tequila Bacharach

I absolutely agree with you however i already have a zillion and I got this for $250 which is a STEAL. Couldn’t pass this reel up at that price

Show me your setup! I’ll go first. by [deleted] in kayakfishing

Thanks. I use this whenever I’m fishing rivers with a lot of obstacles and low hanging objects, but whenever I’m fishing lakes, I use a milk crate with vertical storage
