Post Body

Hey everybody. So a long while back I wanted to get into kayaking, and I happened to be at an REI garage sale and found a Wilderness Systems Pungo 120 Ultralite for $300. It's a $1300 kayak. So I got it and I've been kayaking around and it's great, BUT I would love to start fishing off of it.

The problem is the Pungo isn't really a fishing kayak. It's pretty narrow and it's a sit-in, so it takes some getting used to to keep your balance.

So, other than the balance issues, what other things should I be worried about? What things can I get or make to help make it more enjoyable for fishing?

Here's the Pungo 120 UL. I also have this where I can mount rod holders.
