My wife bought me this tandem Pelican kayak about a year ago off Facebook marketplace. I was so excited and decked it out with some black camo decals I made. (Also the first time I used the Cricut machine my mom gave me a while ago 😂). We’ve only used it twice, mostly because it’s not too fun to paddle and keep in one spot while I fish. Sooo I bought a battery and trolling motor’m not too familiar with saltwater fishing. I want to go and fish for some reds and flounder or trout. Any suggestions or advice?

nice setup! which part of the country are you at?
Eventually those rod holders in the back will weaken and break from the forward/reverse force of the trolling motor. Never recommend side mount, uses more battery life than necessary.
I do like the black camo though! I would recommend getting something sturdier for saltwater fishing
Beautiful kayak and very nice set up!
Cool looking pattern. Just keep fishing out of it and you’ll learn more about works for you and what doesn’t. I always people spend a bunch of money upfront on accessories they think they need. Use the kayak a few times and then decide if you need to add an accessory. You’ll be time and money ahead this way.
Nice I just bought the base
