What kind of leashes do you prefer? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks all for the information. I hope to to head down to OEX sometime today.

Purchases:

1. Aqua Bound Manta Ray Carbon Paddle in at least a 230cm
2. C.O.D. Coil Style Paddle Leash
3. 3 Rod Holder(black) The 2013 XFactor has the raised rear hatch which works perectly with the rod holder mounted behind the seat.

DIY

Rod Leashes
PVC Kayak Storage Rack for garage
PVC Kayak Cart to move kayak

I will be looking for used gear such as hoop nets, rods, reels, etc when the money is available. Does the list ever end? HAHA. I am already up to about $1600 with kayak, seat, PFD, Paddle, GPS/FF, Bait tank conversion, etc. I did manage to save some coin by purchasing his bed extender.

Thanks again for all the help.

Just waiting for Malibu to make a batch of Desert Camo XFactors so OEX can install the goodies and get me on the water.

The list will get smaller eventually.

The problem is, just about the time the list gets smaller, you will want to upgrade the kayak.

I think I have finally decided after a ton of research, that I want a PA.

I buy a lot of my stuff from Big 5 and print out the online coupons for big savings.

I see you are in Lakeside, so am I. The cool thing about Lakeside is, the closest salt water is La Jolla, being a straight shot out the 52 at about 20 miles.

Unfortunately I won't be able to peddle. Too many knee injuries from football. I also have lower back issues. A recumbent bike kicks my butt every time. I guess I have to use the upper half that is not damaged. Looks like paddling and not peddling is in my future....

You might want to shoot for a 240cm paddle unless you're really short. I have a COD Tsunami an it's way too short for my X-Factor. I keep hitting the sides of my yak with it. CJ at OEX suggested a 240 for me so i ordered a new Bending Branches Ace Angler in 240. I was also considering at the Manta Ray too though.
