Mine are black lights. Going to stack green ones on them soon. IN my past life I was a truck driver so I love lights..lol. I even have a solar landscape light that goes on top of my power pole.

I Love all the lights too. The solar light is pretty funny. I figure I have until next summer before I will really need the lights so I am not in a hurry with that. I did pick up a couple rods tonight to see if they will work for shallow water anchors. I think they may not be heavy enough to work well but I will see Thursday. I also got the crate and rod holders so I can get all that together. So far I have the Crate, rod holders, hawg trough, possible shallow water anchors, fish finder and battery.... what am I missing? Should I get the chain drag anchor for deeper water?

The deep water is something I know nothing about.
A quality PFD made for a kayak.

How are you mounting the depth finder and transducer?

i mounted the head unit to the yak with the mount that come with it. I used the Liberator by mad frog for the transducer, it's all in the pictures.

My recommendation is to leash everything!.....lol. If it can fall overboard it probably will eventually.

I've been collecting up old cell phone chargers to make up some of these:

I've seen some with key chain carabiners on them instead of that orange clip that would work well with spinning reels.

It's a Johnson and it's attached to the Stratos.

No spy. Thought about buying a yak but I know myself and I know I would not be happy until I had it rigged out close to what you have. Just needed to know before I started down that road. Probably would not get the power pole but everything else is a MUST HAVE!!
