Birthday yakking the Canning

[adidaspeteman]

My employer gave me the day off so i could celebrate my passage into the 1-year-off-from-30 club. It being a Tuesday i didn't have anyone to drink with or party. The Bureau of Meterology forecast a fine 28 degree day so i decided to do some breaming. The lack of wind, clear skies and low tide practicly ruled out any real chance of scoring wading the flats. Therefore the Mini-X was summoned from the den (shed) and prep'ed to be mounted to explore some deeper water. I paddled and drifted about my local hood and managed to produce a few blackies both on sandworms and ecogear. The morning was made even more speacial when Mr Flipper decide to swim rings around me and say hello.

I went for another paddle today with the good old bream as my target. A five minute walk from my pad and the yaks in the. A bit windy every now and then but with the pick gabbing ok bream were on my cards. With a bit of hard work Mr Blackie and his mates made visit's to my mini-x. At the end of the session it was an arm flexing slog into the wind . If i keep up this paddling, I think my fiance will be happy with my new guns!

Can't wait til i can get my yak, looking at a perception or a wavedance, pics like these just make me want it sooner

How much would that canoe cost. does it have pedals?

[adidaspeteman]

A good yak will cost you over $1000 new. My Mini-x has no peddles, i didn't want a yak with peddles because i want to get the exercise:)

whats a good cheap staring kayak i could buy for breaming

[6fighter9]

did you order your kayak of the net or a store

Glad to see a thread in here. I love the idea of yakking. I want to get into it but can't justify spending the money at the moment. Lets face it $1500 on the yak and another 300 on roof racks for the car and it is starting to get a little bit expensive. Keep up the good work. How you finding the blowies in the canning?

[Lone Ranger]

Does anyone know if you get carp or any fish at the far upper reaches of the Canning near the deadend of it? I heard they may be some? If so I may get a yak too! And by the way, Mainpeak in Perth currently have yaks on special.

Thanks:)

I have a Perception Swing - nice boat, nice finish, but hasn't been updated for 20 years - if you go that way, hang on for a few months - rumoured upgrade imminent.

I also have an Ocean Kayak Prowler 13 - please have a look at these - fantastic to fish from.
