Getting mine out to clean up and get ready for the season! Hoping to do some Kayak Camping before it gets to hot!

Oh, I have a favorite kayaking story to tell.

So one day my family and I decided to go kayaking in a river (instead of a lake). We had two vehicles: one at the starting point, one at the end point. What was suppose to be a 1-2 hour ride ended up being 3-4 hours! The ride was nice. But the board shorts I was wearing were shorter than pants I'd wear any other day, and I didn't put much sunscreen on. I've never, to this day, have had a sunburn as bad as that one. So we finally got to the end of the trip, we bring out kayaks over, then we realized: the keys for the end point vehicle were in the car at the starting point! Thankfully, a relative lived close by and took my dad to get the other car and the keys. Life lesson learned. :lau
 
I got a Ride 135, Commander 120 and a vapor 10xt. I use them for fishing and hunting and floats sometimes.

Attached is my Daughter in my Commander, Me and the dog in the Ride 135 and my buddy Ted in his Hobie Outback heading back in from hunting. Several years ago.

i have a kayak, yet to use it though.

planning to go to kayaking this spring/summer (water is still kinda chilly here)

once i get the hang of it i plan to fish from my kayak, maybe do some river trips up north.
 
Newbie to kayaking here. I've got a Perception Tribe 9.5 that had its maiden voyage for the first time last month. I'm a member of a gals' kayaking group and we have another get together in two days' time. Problem is, we've had copious amounts of rain and the gal's private put-in spot is a real parking challenge, especially in a truck.:hmm

I'll probably head to another location on the river and do some solo 'yakking this time. Just river and slow water stuff for me until I get better at it!
