I got her! Picked her up this afternoon from Mountain Sports in Arlington. Great place, highly recommend them.

Thinking about taking her out for a maiden voyage in the morning.

Perception Sport Pescador 12' in Sand. Got Yakima Landsharks for the rack. Also grabbed a 240cm Werner Skagit paddle.

I guess I'm officially in the club!!

Now to get to rigging. woot

The guys that helped me with the rack said I could if I was paranoid but that it should be fine without. With the tie-downs that go through the crossbars it is VERY secure on the Landshark cradles. They said I wouldn't even need the front one for short trips. But I will probably use it every time anyways, just in case.

Haha man, sun was setting. That's the spot I usually bank fish at Lewisville. Except, where I would normally stand to fish is now about 30 feet from the water. Very low right now, I got a glimpse of what the bottom looks like where I'm normally casting haha.
