here are some things I have done to enhance my yak/spearo existence
feel free to pm me for any instructions or additional pics.
thought I would share these for anyone else who is looking to gear up their kayak- i know I love looking through the net for ideas so I thought I would add some pics for others to use
first is a quick access for the rear hatch (I tend to only use the front one for extra gear as i prefer not to have weight in the front)
I came up with this for the ability to get into it very quickly and easily (even when wearing gloves) and still have it secure and there is an option to make it extra tight if you are in rough water.

closed normally :
closed tightly:
this is just a quick shot of the anchor trolley, some reflective tape (adds a lot of visibility ESPECIALLY at night, and the drain plug
this is a really nice speargun holder- it is just two hook and loop straps (97 cents at west marine) 2 ss washer and 2 rivets. I run one through the trigger and around the stock and the other just around the top of the stock (sometimes through the bands) and the gun is not going anywhere.
the red arrows point to them and the blue is just a regular paddle holder rig

and here is a really easy to make paddle holder that I made out of pieces of scrap
