After several years away from yak fishing, I’m back into it! Buggered my shoulder paddling back in from lysaughts a few years back, ended up having a reconstruction, sold my yak and bought a stink boat, then a slightly bigger stink boat! On the plus side I learnt a lot more about fishing WPB when ab...

Both look as if they would be more than comparable speed wise, I'm assuming that u...

I was actually considering some flush mounts just behind the seat facing forward and a little outwards....I think there may be just enough space both surface and void to do this. I have an interesting idea to make some accessible storage using retractable bags or plastic cylinders on bungies at the ...

I had thought of something similar to that........positioning in front of my feet like in the vid would not work though....no way I could reach them to get rods out! I had considered mounting one in place of where the single one is currently (see photos on page 1 of this thread) but my legs would ha...
