I duck hunt out if a kayak. So yesterday I went out hunting and paddled my way across Lake Kapowsin. It took me an hour of paddling (dragging my decoy bag behind me) to get to my spot, at which point I started setting up decoys. Getting ready for a nice evening hunt. I got all set up and had my kayak backed into some reeds for cover when I realized my kayak had a lot of water in it. I thought maybe I had done it while setting up so I bailed water and settled back in. I say there for about 15 minutes and realized I had gained substantial water again. My kayak was taking on water fast!
So as far as I could I packed decoys and hustled back to the docks. The hour of paddling only took me 40 coming back and in that 40 minutes I had gained over 3 inches of water! Not how I intended on spending my night. I went home soaked and empty handed. Time to find the leak and patch it before next weekend.
