Well, I should introduce myself first. I've been reading a lot of great information on this board over the last year or so, and I wanted to start posting.
I don't have much experience with kayaks, but since I'm moving to Alaska (I spent the last summer up there) I want to get into it (especially sea kayaking) more. I love the idea of kayak fishing as well, but I'm trying to work through ideas about how it would best work.
After reading some on here about stability, etc., I was wondering, does anyone here use outriggers on sit-in kayaks for fishing stability? It seems popular elsewhere. I don't want to do anything crazy like stand in the boat (some people in warm water seem to aim for this), I just don't want to get my world rocked by accidentally hooking a fish on the too-big side.
