First time out in my newly owned 12footer....Proud owner of a Percetion Pescador 12....the pelican castaway 116 is on the shelf.

So anyway, landed this 22lber first fish out of the Pescador! Have family over from Shreveport So I put it on the stringer, well what do you know the metal circle on the stringer breaks and all I see is a tail swimming down!


then a hour or two later This hits
Nice 9'er

Ended the day catching Only 3 FISH but had several hits! The Pescador is def a upgrade from the castaway, VERY STABLE I stood up in it...It tracks PERFECT compared to the Pelican lol and handle the waves with no problem.....only thing I didnt like is that it catches alot more wind!

Happy "Pescador" here!

Nice. Sorry to hear you lost the big one.

Congrats. Great looking cats!!!! At least you let one go for me to catch later.

Lavon? Nice work man.

She just came up to get her pic taken in your new ride!
Congrats bro!

Pescador rocks,
congratulations on your first fish and your successful outing.

Love my pescadore, but I'm impressed if you can stand in it. My balance must not be very good.

Congratz on a couple very nice catfish.

@D.S.... Lavon is correct
@F.Z..... I like camera wh0r3s when it comes to fishing lol
@T........ I was only in like 1.5 fert of water when I stood, but I did....Going to take alil more practice before I'm throwing my net out of it

Nice kitty! I wanna catch some kitties that size too. Maybe after the winter crappie run is over I'll try my hand at cat fishing.

Right now its easy pickings......paddle upwind and drift till something hits, let me know when you want to hit up Lavon........Open invite to all!

Nice fish and congrats on the Pescador!

Lavon I am impressed, nice fish, been fishing Lavon for a long time nothing that big. Let us know next time you go out would love to tag along.

Congrats on new kayak

@Palo... Will do, could use a camera man lol.....but seriously wouldn't mind the company.

Perfect, do have a camera could be good for something, I have not used it lately

sweet first trip. I have one too but can't stand in it. Great yak though

Congratulations on your new kayak, I know you will continue to enjoy it more and more.

Couldn't be happier with my Pescador.

Bummer on the fish, but you still landed the nice cat. I am still setting up my pecsador and you are right. It's like a Cadillac to my castaway, the castaway has put a lot of fish in the freezer and still will since my son and friends still use it.

Since my free time has been sitting on the lake in the pecsador it may take all winter to get it riged LOL!

Eventually we will go out as well. Never fished Lavon but it is just across the street so to speak. By the way, the holes that are in your perception, does water seep in and get you wet. I have never experienced a kayak like that until I ignorantly bought the pelican 116, cheap version. Too bad I didn't get the information that I have gotten in the past week on TFF.

I like your anchor trolley Big Redneck. I've had a temporary set up on mine. I bought some eyelets to make it permanent, just have not got around to it. Did you use pop rivets on the back?

On the back one I used stainless fine thread screws with some glue just on the threads. The rest of them are riveted in. If for some reason the back one breaks it may be a bugger bear getting the screws out. I still have to do the anchor trolly on the other side I will use rivets all the way. I just use 550 paracord, but remember it will shrink a little the first time it gets wet and dries.
