I picked up a SOT kayak, not sure who makes it, but it says spitfire. Picked her up for 125.00 with some paddles. Are there any links out there that might show me how to set her up for fishing?
Got me a great deal off cragiy's list today.

I learned how to install a depth finder/gps from their "articles" page: http://www.kayakfishingstuff.com/drupal/Articles
Hey thanks for all the info guys, really helpfull. I took her out for the first time this morning. Didn't fish off her, I just wanted to get a feel sence I have never been in a yak before. It felt I littel weired for a minute or two, but after a very short while, things seemed fine. I practiced going forward, cornering, and even comming to shore. Got stuck on the rocks for a few minutes.. Really thought it was deeper there.. lol Over all it was real fun, she handled just fine for me. I think she might be a nice littel fishing yak.... I'm going out again tomarow before work for a littel pracrice, and hope to be using her for fishing by next week. I ordered a leash for the paddel, and rod, as well as two rod holders from cabela's.
