A fiberglass-shaft angler paddle with a hook retrieval notch and a measuring scale on the blade, light enough that a full day does not wreck your shoulders.
A pulley loop along the kayak's gunwale that lets you move your anchor point bow to stern, so you choose which way the boat sits in wind and current.
A thirteen-foot pedal kayak with the hull volume and freeboard to handle a Great Lakes chop, which most fishing kayaks genuinely do not have.
The paddle kayak most people should start with — stable, twelve feet, and cheap enough that a first season on protected water does not require a loan.
A cone of fabric that drags underwater and cuts your drift speed roughly in half, which is what turns an unfishable windy day on Erie into a productive one.
