The rest, well if it's your first....buy someone elses must sell...craigs list is perfect.....I always see damn good ones with the paddel (a good paddel can be a hundred bucks) for a hundred total......because if you like the sport, you'll get another one that fits your needs more.

Just like every one does who buys a camper....they always buy something better once they understand camping.

Kayaking and fishing is big too.....I don't fish, but I know Jack does.....

Exactly! I didn't know if I needed to get something specifically for me at first or what. I've been looking a bikes for much the same purpose as the kayak. I am opening up my life to healthier living and am enjoying being outdoors more and more. The idea of kayaking around some of the lakes and streams we have here is super motivating!
