    No sun seeds on my boat! This is why

    Sunflower seeds must be the boiled peanuts of the north. Can't say I see the attraction of either. You can avoid the blow back problems by buying them shelled.

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    For those of you still working on your rigs. Here is the cart I put together from pvc pipe and lawnmower wheels. I used aluminum rod for the axle so it would not rust. And for you guys with a short bed in your truck this is how I set up a bed extender for the kayak.

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    Wirehair, I have seen homemade A frame units that can hold 8 Canoes I would think that would be easy to weld up and it would give you storage on the trailer between the lower part of the frame. Just make sure to secure them well. I almost got taken out by a canoe from a trailer going down the...

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    KDM check out the rolling carts for Kayaks. I made mine out of PVC and large lawnmower wheels. I put it on the front end, lift the back end and roll it into the water. Unhook, fish, reverse procedure. I'll take a picture tonight and post it. I think it was around $60 to put together. I could not...

    Hey KDM have you looked at Austin Kayak? I got mine delivered to Minot no charge. Everything arrived well packaged. Looks like the wind is finally going to die off a bit so I am going to head out after work. Give me a shout when you get the Big Rig. Don't forget to look at how you plan on...

    Fishing Alone?

    Being relatively new to the area, mostly fish alone. Kayak fishing kinda lends itself to that. With the warmer weather this week I am more than ready. Being pulled around by slough sharks is fun.

    Slider Diver

    I agree with KDM, Jets do go straight down, up on Erie we usually used them in conjunction with boards. Jet 20's and 30's on inline boards, 40's and 50's on big planer boards. I have caught a crapload of walleye and steelhead with dipsy divers. They are nice as you can adjust whether they go...

    Sportsman Show Minot.. Anyone Going??

    Since I have not met any of you in person what is the "High Sign" (Think Little Rascals). Would it be better to have a specific time and place, such as the beer garden at 6:30? What think you??

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    Johnr, that is exactly what happened, most expensive rod, was even tethered with a velcro strap. That was the weak link. KDM, for the fishing rods I use para cord tied to the blank above the reel, which is then run down the handle where a different type of velcro strap holds it snug and keeps...

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    Morning KDM, I learned the hard way, make sure everything is either tethered or floats. It is not like fishing off a tin can. If it falls, it falls in the water. I am getting a floating sleeve for my phone this year. I agree with Captainbrad, spend time in shallow water and learn how to get back...

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    Hey KDm, I picked up an Ocean Kayak Predator 13 last year and used it on Sak, Darling and Buffalo Lodge. It is a sit on top. It is set up as a fishing rig. Great below deck storage, built in rod holders, plenty of space to mount electronics if you want. I have paddled Audubon for 8 hours...
