Seattle / Ballard area paddler

Found this site last week, had no idea there were so many kayak fishermen out there.  Must be the fog in the PNW that keeps us all hidden.  Been kayak fishing since moving here 9 years ago.  Started kayak fishing with my old man pre-watergate days, first boat was a Royak from the first batch to hit the west coast that summer. Fished many boats and many corners of the planet since then. ...'of course, now I'm too old to be much of a fishermen but I still paddle the big waters alone although some friends say I shouldn't.'

It sounds like there are a few Ballardite kayak fishermen out there, but I can't see them through the fog this morning. Look forward to fishing with you soon.

There are plenty of us here ... just a bit spread out. t is about time for another get together over a few cold frosties to meet all the new faces.

Hear, hear. 

How can a fisherman be too old?!

Did I hear BEER?  I can see it now...honey, going out drinking with kayak fishing buddies.  She'll be burning the boats in the yard when I stumble home.  Best hide the boats first.

Yak trap I'm new here too. People on here have been great and a great source of information welcome aboard.

welcome! I'm in Ballard as well. maybe I'll see you out on the water

No doubt on the water.  I'll be hitting West Point for Kings over the next month, very early in the morning.  See you there.

Welcome to the cure! A little north of Ballard but there's a few of us who fish the area. I'll be posting up when some of us head out so feel free to join.
