When the weather gets warm and you have fished out of the kayak a few times, you will find out what would have made fishing easier as far as rigging the kayak. And practice getting back on the kayak in open water a bunch of times before you mount anything. Some people can get back in from only one side.....that's the side you want free of anything.

Good luck with the new kayak !!!!!
