Well guys,

Unfortunately I'm getting out of the kayak fishing game. It sucks but I don't have much of a choice, I'm not gonna go into the details but some things have come up that forced my hand. But also I just don't have the time to devote to the sport any longer, I'm now a senior in college and I will be taking a multitude of studio classes and the demand on my time will be enormous. I won't be totally stepping away from the sport, I will still be attending HOW events and things like that, and I'm gonna keep bank fishing and working on my fly fishing technique. The wife and I are planning a big move up to the Cripple Creek/ Colorado Springs CO area here within the next 2 years or so, and once we do I plan to get back into yak fishing 100% my wife even wants me to buy her a yak, so I guess this is more an extended absence than completely getting out. It has been a ton of fun, and I'll be lurking around here still, thank you guys for all of your help and support, a special shoutout to Jerry Hamon, Bert Rodriguez, Fish Zombie (can't for the life of me remember your real name), Josh "Numie", and a real big shout out to Jim and Sally Dolan and George Chrisman, and all of the HOW crew.

My complete Yak/trailer setup is up in the classifieds, I'd be really happy to pass it on to a TFFer.

Thanks guys, if any of y'all have a spare yak and need a fishing buddy, give me a holler, I'm down. Lol. If I'm not busy that is.
