Beginner's Guide to Camping

I am assuming that all (most) of you are active kayakers, and many of you are also fishing from your kayaks. However, kayak camping is not quite as popular as other kayak-related activities. If you've never been camping on a beach after a long day of paddling, I highly recommend it. There are so many amazing places to paddle and camp (see this blog post) that you shouldn't have any problems finding a good spot near you.

For those of you that are master paddlers and anglers, but don't know how to pitch a tent, there are many great sources online to help you get started. I found an interesting article this morning that would be a great place to start for those of you who would like to try kayak camping.

Good Paddling!

I'm Back...

Well, I know it has been a little while since I have posted on the blog and Twitter feed, but I am back. I sent out a quick "tweet" explaining what happened, but for those of you who missed it; Mrs. KayakSportsman suffered a pretty severe broken wrist, requiring surgery. She had to have four pins inserted into the broken bones to hold everything in place, so I had to play nurse-maid. Instead of kayaking, I've been running the house and catering to her needs as she recovers.

Let's just say that I like my regular job much better, and I give her all the credit in the world for doing what she does everyday to keep me and the two boys clothed, fed, and out of trouble!

But, as I said, I am back and ready to start posting again.

Thanks for your patience, and for the well wishes many of you sent along.
