It's the best present I've ever received. I love it so much.

They sell them on amazon.

Last year I work plain white cotton short sleeve t-shirts. They reflect the sun, wick moisture well enough, and they're cheap. It's good that they're cheap, because they got very dirty. I didn't like the tan lines, though.

This year I might try some of these long sleeve shirts from REI.

I'd like to know if anyone has tried any long sleeve shirts in the heat? These are supposed to be made for it. I'd like to go shirtless most of the time but I also don't want tan lines from my camelbak.

As for shorts, I wore a couple pair of these random tony hawk skater shorts I had. They were light, lots of pockets, and dried quickly. Will likely do something similar.

As for shoes, I wore an old pair of sketchers... big mistake.

This year I bought a pair of mesh Vans that don't even feel like they need breaking in, they're so light and comfortable. I need to try them over some big gravel though... those gravel roads throughout the camps destroyed my feet.

I'm also going to bring another pair of slip-ons that I wore to Mo Pop last year. I'll probably trade off each pair either every day or twice a day so I'm not wearing against the same spots on my feet continuously.

Plain white cotton socks are all I need. A mix of thin and thick depending on the shoe fit I think.

Underwear is easy. Any of these C9 performance briefs are perfect. Long enough to cover the inner thigh if you want to prevent chafing (+ gold bold of course), but the main thing is the wicking... I sweat a lot for a skinny guy and I don't recall noticing wet underwear once the entire trip.

Last year I wore a wide brimmed safari hat with a bandana wrapped around my forehead to catch sweat before it got in my eyes. This year I'm going to bring that, but also one of these Chillba hats. This looks like it'll keep the sun off my head and neck without the contact of a normal hat across my forehead. Seems like it'll be nice and breezy. The best part is that I can fold it up and store it in my pack or pocket once the sun goes down.

The Mericas? I'll be right there with you. If you see someone in chubbies with one of these hats on say hi!

That looks like a sweet kayak.

My general suggestions would be:

  • Inflatable life vest (Mustang or West Marine). Get the manual kind. The automatic ones sound cool but the first time you accidentally inflate it while trying to wade out in the water to take a leak you will know why they are not cool.
  • Kayak cart. I know to some it sounds lazy, but every time I used it I am thankful. No matter if you are just making a short pull from the car to the ramp or having to walk it from the parking lot to the surf. The best kind imo are the hobie carts because of the wheels so i would find one with those hobie like wheels. They are not cheap but worth every penny. Avoid the carts with the rigid wheels. They are cheaper but they suck to use because they dig down into anything soft.

  • Personal Locator Beacon (PLBs) These give you and your loved ones some peace of mind that if something goes wrong you will be able to get help. We use these everywhere we fish whether it is offshore or bridge fishing and solo or with a partner.

  • Rod Leashes. We get some handmade ones from a local fisherman. Here is an example of the kind we like. They are cheap relative to what they are saving.

  • The Fish Grips. These help hold on to bigger fish and fish with teeth.

  • A dedicated set of fishing pliers. Any of these

  • Rod holders for those rails you have

  • A nice fishing hat. The KAVU Chillba is my favorite. They just have a headband you wear so air flows all over your head.

  • Some nice fishing pants. Light and strong ones.

    My opinion on the other items suggested

  • Fish finders: this are all very cool and fun to play with. after having one for a while you will find that on kayaks the "fish finding" capabilities are not as useful. Now we only use ours for depth and gps locations for fishing spots. They should be called "fish structure finders."
