Not into Kayaking but let me give you some advise from a boaters perspective.

If you plan to fish it in the salt water I would suggest you have a flag kit installed so when you dip down between waves boaters can still see you.

For this same reason I would avoid areas where there is a lot of boat traffic like channels and thoroughfares to marinas. If you do decide to venture into these areas expect to get waked. You need to expect that boats in these areas will be running at speed and will not slow down to avoid waking you even if they see you.

I would not venture out on the salt alone. Things can change in a hurry with wind and tide shifts and it's much easier for boaters to see multiple Kayaks then it is one. If you do decide to venture out alone, make sure someone on land knows what your intentions are and what time to expect you back.

I'd also suggest you have a waterproof handheld VHF radio in case you need to radio for help.
