Re: New hobie kayak (compass)

I heard they've molded an aftermarket esky which will slot into the front well for fish storage. And looking at a couple pages I'm guessing this'll be around $2000-$2500

Re: DIY AI Tramp

Nice bit of sewing there Nelson, can you still swing the outriggers in with the tramp on? Thanks mal! Not sure I haven't tested it yet, but I don't think so. I think most guys only use a single tramp and fold in the other outrigger to bring fish in, so I'm gonna see how this goes. If the fish doesn...

Re: My ai rod holders

Went to waranga basin yesterday for a bit of trolling, gave the rod holders a go and I'm very please with how they went. They're at a great height so that they're high enough to not get hit when pedalling, but also low enough to not get in the way of the sail. Tried a bit of bait fishing too with th...
