Congrats there Bassmaster-ND,
It'll be great to hear how you managed to break the little devil in both navagation and fishing. Keep in mind that there a lots of bells and whistles you can put on yourself DIY!

Way to go Bassmaster. I'm sure you are going to enjoy some fun times on the water. Did you get fins yet??? That will be your next step.

[url "javascript: addTag('cool')"][cool][/url][#0000ff]My, my. It looks like our new recruit is getting serious.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Nice score on the waders. Hope you like them and they fit well. We expect a review as soon as you get a good read on them.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I suggest that you make your first launch without tackle. Get out and paddle around a bit, to get the feel of your craft and how to move and guide it across the water. That shouldn't take too long. Then go back in and assemble your gear and go assault some fishies.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Let us know when you need some guidance on setting up rod holders and/or sonar. If you have gone back through some of our past threads, I am sure you have seen pics and discussions on those issues.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Hope Santy Claus gets there soon with your goodies so you can get started.[/#0000ff]

Hey Bassmaster, Way to go. You are almost ready now. As far as the space behind the seat, stuff will get wet. I will usually put stuff in a waterproof box for that area. You could also tuck your landing net in there if you don't want it hanging in the water all the time.
Ziplock freezer bags work well also.
