I always liked going south to the pinnacles, or north around Onemana.

You sure? That number comes up with Barbells...

Nice Rob. I have to say, mothership trips are the biggest thing I miss about kayak fishing!

I’ve taken my 7X HOOK2 off the stealth before I sold it due to the thing showing the screen like that. Even tried it off the wharf with the transducer on a stick , no better. It’s never worked properly since the first time I used it. Marine Deals have $600 off me for nothing but an expensive box th...

Off the back end of Hainesy's "shell suit comeback" comment... Where is a good place to get some new paddle pants on a budget? Are Rasdax still king, if so where from. I can only find them at Hunting and Fishing but not exactly what I'm after. What other options are out there and where from? Any th...

I'd just talk with Viking Kayaks. I'm sure they'll send whatever they use down for you.

Nah still do not ship here, thought I could get around it by getting it sent to a US address, then found you needed a US c/c to purchase.... used to get so me mean deals I got once bought 50 tubs of gulp for next to nothing...

Thankfully you noticed before you left!
My boat has 6 bungs (not all of which I actually open), so I have to go through and check them all before launching. Water moves through them damn quick

I use one of his softbait rods, and it's my go-to.

Nice one mate - I think kingfish are some of the most fun fish to catch. I've always done better with Jigs personally, but in close like you were, the livies seem like a good plan.

Thanks for the advice. :y: Can I ask, what is it about the Lowrances you don't like? Re: The GT52 and the GT51 yes, but as my Kayak is not really an offshore model, I'm not likely to need the extra grunt of the 51 as I'm unlikely to get to fish, in much more than 100~200 feet let alone 500 or 750, ...

Nice research! My second Garmin on my jetski was an echomap 95sv and I put in the GT51M transducer. It's a FANTASTIC transducer, although expensive. So much so, that when I bought my boat, I got another one. I've also put in a low chirp 1kw transducer for the deep stuff. If you can upgrade the trans...

Nice choice of FF. I've run 3 or 4 Lowrances, and since then 3 Garmins. I always found mapping to be quite good, although for some time I used my phone. Does the Striker Plus come with QuickDraw? If so, that, along with Navionics on the phone would be fine. Syncing with the phone is also very nice, ...

Nice day out! well done

sk8e8

Lowrance and Garmin are both good. Just make sure you know where you'll put your transducer and that it'll fit

What's your budget?

After more than a year, I finally purchased one

someone got a steal!

Good outcome!

Tangent here, but speaking of buying offshore, I have 2 x Daiwa BG2500 reels arriving from SRMO in the states, got both of them for $232 landed in NZ. Best price I have seen here is $199 each. Makes it an easy decision! Will have to add GST too soon. Also, it's great UNTIL you need any support by D...
