Wow ... a chance to own a piece of kayak fishing history! Shouldn't this be auctioned off like a Hollywood movie prop with the likes of Darth Vader's helmet?
Available for sale to the public - The actual kayak seen in the most popular kayak fishing video EVER! With over 13 million hits and climbing you can own the kayak piloted by the 2010 AOTY winner and star of YouTube sensation "Octopus Caught While Kayak Fishing"
Don't let this once in a lifetime opportunity pass you by, act quickly.

This is the video that introduced me to kayak fishing. It was what intrigued me to research the sport. I agree. This kayak is a piece of kayak fishing history :)

Nice! So are you selling the outback or adding to the fleet?

Congrats Craig!  :o  If you will be down to Netarts Thu/Fri/Sat and get board then swing on by Whalen Island.  Insayn and I will be down there camping and hopefully picking up some Crab and Flounder.  I will be headed back Sat morning but I believe Craig will be staying Sat night as well.
PROGRESS IS JUST BEING THERE!

Thanks.  I completely forgot about Whalen Island.  I may head there today.

Noah- I'm adding to the fleet.  I needed another for guests.  I also like the speed of the Adventure.  However, I prefer the Outback for sturgeon thus far.  The bottle holder in the adventure cockpit does not properly secure a bottle of beer.  :'(
