Re: Tie it All Down !
Tarpon Guy,
The leashes Robert displayed are made by C.O.D. Paddlesport Accessories I believe it is. Kayak shops that carry C.O.D. products may have them. If you still want some, give Andy at OEX in Sunset Beach a call. They are at 16910 Pacific Coast Hwy, Sunset Beach, CA 90742 (562)592-0800. OEX carries a line of C.O.D. products and would probably have them on the shelf. Hope this helps, Perry

Re: Tie it All Down !
Perry, I got mine new for $150 + shipping($7.50) on ebay. That's a good price, I think! Retail= $249.99! That reel is a casting mother! I can cast a lil grub on a 3/8 oz. lead head, a very respectable distance. I'm throwing 20 lb. spectra on that baby! I love it! You have to let out line around 1/2 the length of the rod, but when you get used to it, TA DA! That mother flies! IT may be better casting than my Newell 220s and you know how they cast!

Re: Tie it All Down !
Tarpon Guy the pic is of a WSB caught around Santa Cruz Island. My friend was a deck hand on the Seabiscuit out of Channel Islands Sportfishing. Went out last year around this time. Was standing at the bow talking about the WSB bite and what it should feel like and as we were talking and I was flylining a dine on a 3/0 ring hook letting out line towards a paddie he said you should feel a tap tap tap and as he actually said it I felt the tap tap tap let him run for 5 seconds and set the hook. Bam the fight was on. Pulling him out of the paddie was fun. The fish was good enough that day for the JP.
The real WSB story was last year at Castros Fishing Village in Erendea Baja. Went out on a Panga and helped the skipper bring in a 72 LB 4 OZ WSB. This was the largest caught down there in 20 years. I'll attach a picture. This is just a couple LBS shy of the Callifornia record.

Re: Tie it All Down !
Fishslayer,
Thanks for the story and great pic! Boy, I I'd like to get one or two of those, myself! If I get two, I could lash them to the sides of the yak and use them for power
