the gulf has tons of sharks in 6-10 feet of water on the beach, I've caught some 4-6 footers up shallow pretty scary to think people are so close but have no idea haha
Very true and good examples of why I am picky about what water I get in.
I've seen 6-8 footers in West Matagorda bay. We've got to make sure our stringers arent wrapped around anything on us when we wade there

Where are you fishing at on West Maddy?
I grew up there during the summers, my ol'e man and family still have bay houses on Shicke Point, Bay St West
Since we only wade unless tripletailing, we fish from Phillips Bayou to Hilberts Bayou.

I kayaked the lake that is rumored to be what Deliverance was based on a few years ago (Smith Mountain Lake) and when you hear banjo's just paddle faster.

Finally got my "angler" kayak. LL Bean had 20% off this weekend for Columbus Day + another 10% off for signing up for their Visa card Ill never use.
Now I just need to name her, break a bottle of Boons Farm over her bow for good luck, and pop her cherry with a maiden voyage.

If anyone has a need I have some Scotty rod holders that came with the boat I don't need. Brand new/never used/still have the tags on them - bought this past Sunday.
Got:
(1) Scotty # No. 279 Bait Caster with No Mount - cheapest retail I could find was for $10.83
Holds a bait caster reel in a cushioned cradle.
A slot in the front of the rod holder allows for a spinning reel to be securely held in position. The rod holder design has a side mounted flange, which leaves the bottom open. This allows for the rod holder to accommodate trigger grips. Pistol
grip rod butts easily clear the sides of the rod holder for quick rod retrieval. Rod can be secured in holder with a soft latching strap which snaps over the top.
(1) Scotty # No. 433 Coaming / Gunnel Clamp Mount - cheapest retail I could find was for $18.95
Position your rod holder or Scotty accessory virtually anywhere on the lip of your kayak's coaming. Built tough from rugged engineering grade nylon, the 433 revolutionizes the way your can fish from your sit-in kayak. The attached Gear-Head Mount allows you to quickly change rod holder positions with a simple twist. Easily fasten the 433, drop and lock your favourite Scotty Rod Holder or accessory and start fishing! A non-permanent solution for mounting fishing gear to your watercraft and getting you out there!
Both shown together (last of the three pics - doesn't include the tray in pic 1 or or the light in pic 2):
Ill ship both to someones door for $25 via USPS flat rate. Payment via PP - add 3% if you don't want to gift it.

Spent about 10hrs in the new yak this weekend and I'm very pleased. Tracks well enough for a short yak and the seating position and seat aren't even comparable to my old kayak's seats. In my old yaks I'd last about 1/2hr before my back started talking to me ~ In the new seat I can go hrs without any pain. Makes me wish I ditched my old yak and got a new one a long time ago.....now I'm thinking of getting a new 12-14' yak to replace my decades old 12'.

That's Mr Asshole to you
How are you supposed to fish with that ice?Hope your nephew has enjoyed the rod holders
