Hiya all from a noob

Post by SheffSparky »

Hiya all,
I joined a few weeks ago, but was lurking bit quiet trying to learn a bit about it. Today i went and ordered a new compass, which i should get next week. Based in Werribee, i will prob cut my teeth in Cambells/Altona areas. which from reading the forum appear to be a great area to start out learning the ropes of using a yak. I hope to be doing a lot of soft plastics and a bit of bait, as well as spearfishing and believe the yak will be a great advantage, and a great way to keep active as an older guy (59). Anyway if you see someone looking totally bewildered, feel free to make fun of me.

Its been a good read so far, tons of information. Will have to read a number of times. Just finished a flag/light pole for some late arvo, evening sessions (hopefully). Lol dont pick my kayak up untill this Friday, so just getting things ready.
