Hey guys,

I just wanted to drop a line on here to introduce myself. My name is Rob Milam and just picked up a new Pro Angler this weekend. I'll be posting some new rigging over the next couple of weeks of some Yak Attack products on my new boat. Looking forward to sharing some ideas as well as getting new ones fun all of you.

Here are a couple of pictures of her.

Congrats Rob!

I picked mine up this weekend as well. I'm jealous! I really wanted the Papaya, but the Dune will work just fine. Good luck with your PA and the upgrades.

hey Way to Go! I have a Yellow PA with my name on it! I only get mine in April or May. Waiting is the hardest.

We want to hear about the Maiden Voyage and how the fish leap into your boat.

I took it out yesterday and was amazed by the stability and actually paddled it just to see how it paddles. Caught one dink bass about 16" but will put more in the boat in weeks to come. Really excited about sight fishing in it.

Nice purchase Rob...


Hopefully I see some big fish on that new hobie in the KBF challenges, but just a little smaller than my catches!! haha

I have the same trailer set up as well!!

Thanks Marty. Btw, thanks for giving Shaun such a hard time last night, it was priceless!

Matt,
I'm going to give it all I can. I sure wish I lived closer to Lake Falcon ;)

Thanks, xpresso2am. This is the ultimate fishing machine! I can't wait to partner up with Yak Attack and get this thing rigged out. I'll have the Humminbird set up on it this weekend.

Hey Rob its great to see you registered up over here. There is a tremendous amount of information about the PA here if you do a search. Glad you are liking the PA so much I'm extremely happy with mine too.

Nice! I won't receive my PA until the end of the month. Want to buy a Scotty 245 1 1/4" Round Rail Mount for a FF. Can you tell me the diameter of the rails on the PA? Thanks.
