As the PA is expensive enough itself the rigging may take awhile :roll: :roll:

Yeah i have only taken my PA out once in the harbor. Its a great kayak, will be mostly fishing for calicos, sandbass, halibut, and white seabass from the Southern CA area, along with stripers and trout from the local lakes. Going to Castaic this weekend. =)

Congrats on your new PA you WILL love it.Since Ive gotton mine (1mth ago) I found out that I really did not have to do much as far a rigging goes.I mounted 2 ram rod holders on the starboard on the sides and rod holder extentions in the rear with rams mounted on top of them.Also put a trolly on it and i think thats all she needs for my fishing needs.Good luck

No Bar-B-Q but, Humminbird 997 Side imager, 3 video cameras,custom live well under center hatch and a LOT of thin line LED lights,,,but,,, since I started taking Lasix every day I am now desperately looking for a place to mount a urinal. I am thinking about "re-purposing" the center live well. :x

I carry a "male urinal".....a simple plastic container with a snap on lid......most pharmacies carry them for home use......in the $5 to $8 range.....my container is "Carex" brand, 32 oz capacity.
Simple to use and store.....no need to stand up or lean forward to use.....just stay seated, unzip, insert willy and pee!
