Hi guys, just a question about the Tempest parts with socks sizing. I'm 175cm, 32" waist and 78kg. I just spoke to Keith at AK&S and returning them if the are the wrong size is not an issue but I thought others might be curious too. Obviously it would be better to try them on but both AK&a...

Picked up a few things for a bargain today. The drogue was only $12 and the Daiwa Sweepfire 2500x was $19. I don't expect the reel to last long but at that price if it lasts a few months i'll be happy. Also picked up a squid jig and a deeper diving frenzy for trolling on the yak. $12 drogue is a wi...

Well folks, i finally bought a yak. I'm the proud new owner of "Puddles", Chevvy's much loved and modified Riot Escape 12 Angler. Will be heading out on Saturday morning for the first paddle. Can't wait !

Thanks for the heads up mate. Will go back to Aquayak on Saturday to suss one out.

Capacity sports has a Redfish 10 Angler for just under a grand but is not as long as the Escape. Aquayak was closed and i'm yet to sit in a Kingfisher but i did get a reta...

Went to Melbourne Kayaks in Glenn Waverly today and am seriously considering this kayak. The guy i spoke to was great and he was showing me pictures of your yak to show me what can be done. He was pretty excited about it and said he uses yours as the best example of what can be done. I just came acr...

I'm going to sacrifice a day of fishing Tuesday to go to a few shops and see a few yaks up close. Hope to get a better idea of what i'm after. Am starting to lean toward a longer one (4m+) incase i ever want to take it in the bay. The thought scares me now but you never know, i might be keen one day...

Hi everyone. I'm very keen to get a yak due to my increasing envy of everyone i see out on the water when i'm walking the banks flicking a lure around. I will mention straight away that i haven't researched much yet but look forward to learning as much as i can from the forum. I'm not sure if this i...
