    It is my bow draw shoulder. Which is not great, but hoping to be good enough to shoot the Gtown qualifier and be fine for the season.

    Grabbed some tie downs and floating cases today.

    What kind of kayak do you have? Always worried about flipping mine. But since I got my pro angler 12 it makes me feel a bit better lol.

      I recently got a pro angler yak myself but have only been out on it once. The yak is extremely stable. I was out on Amistad with the wind blowing hard and the yak did well in the choppy water. Standing up on it was easy enough and felt really stable while standing. My yak has a wheel kit that has the wheels that stow right on the yak but can easily be removed. I will probably try to make a set of out-riggers to fit where the wheels go for additional stability as I plan on crossing the lake to hunt out of it this coming season.

            I have a Perception Striker 11.5. It has a large 33" width and is intended to be used as a stand up, but I don't. (or that is what the stand up assist strap would imply)

            My tipping was a combination of bad decisions...

            1) anchored from the side cleat with a short line: so as the boat tipped it was held there

            2) raised seat: using the top of 3 available seating levels, so it was fairly top heavy

            3) overambitious cast: probably forgot where I was and hucked a long one

              That would be sketchy for sure lol. I need to get rod leashes just in case. I pretty much only fish Decker for now so it would suck to flip there in all that grass and deep spots

                As a DIY tip for keeping things secure, I use an empty peanut butter jar (plastic) that I tie a piece of para cord around the top. I then tie that to one of my hatch cover lid bungees inside the hull. Keeps wallet and keys safe and dry, even if I flip. Also keeps then dry in the hull if I get water there, as well as keeping them from sliding all inside the hull.

                          I fished boggy in POC yesterday, only caught a few rat reds. If anyone likes black drum the far shoreline is loaded with them. It's a small bayou and an easy paddle.
