First kayak, and first fish on it!

Post by docta » Sun Jun 16, 2013 7:59 pm

Picked up this Beatty from anacondas below cost sale for $225!
RRP is $999
Anaconda claim to purchase them for 650...
With seat and paddle I was set up for just on 350.
Absolute bargain I thought and so two mates also invested, very stable and nice kayak (not that I know anything about them)
Took her out to blue rock this afternoon and got a nice brown trout second cast and we'd only been on the water for literally 5 minutes!
Had an absolute ball

Looks the goods and for the price you can't go wrong. I find it hard to believe that they claim to purchase at 650 though, thats a serious loss at the sale price wacko

I'm 5'11" and 76kgs. So is my mate. My other mate is 6'1" or 2" and 85 and suits him fine too. Lol I'm sure there is a kayak suited for yourself. Just gotta find it! I wanted a tinny for the bay and lakes. But this will do seeing as me and the mrs are building a house and will have zero dollars lol
