Finally after about 6 months of visiting this site and chiseling away at my wife I purchased my first 2 kayaks today. I demoed with my son about 3 weeks ago the PA and feel in love with it, actually I feel in love with it long before I took them out. I live in SouthGa and will primarily fishing the panhandle of Fl flats. Hopefully if the weather permits next Monday i will travel to St Marks for my and my sons maiden fishing trips. Untill then I will be spending a lot of time in my garage getting the PA's ready for a busy spring :D

Well I'll fish the Big Bend area :lol: Maybe we could set up a fishing trip sometimes. I'll probaley do most of my fishing in the St Marks and west toward Dog Island. I sold my 22' CC Century to purcahse the PA's and most of my fishing was throughout that region. BTW looking at your screen name are you a
daschund owner ? I have a miniature longharied daschund who's probaley about as excitied to go out as I am.

Captscott,

Congrats on your new PA. You didn't by chance get that 2011 "Dune" model that was at Wilderness Trails? I had my eye on that one and if it was still available when my 94 Pro Craft bass boat sold, I was aiming for it...lol.

Since Blackcreek in Jacksonville has PAs in stock...I'm headed there next Saturday to pick up a 2012 PA and Mirage Outback. I never realized how popular kayaking was here in south GA and northern FL. Like you I have been following this forum for quite some time. The community here is awesome and the posts and comments about the PA make it easy to commit to getting one.

It will be a new adventure, but one I'm sure will be great! Good luck with your new ride!
