Title: Small Boat Fishing in Jamacia Bay NY

We had a solid day of fishing in our back yard of Jamaica Bay and these two guys fished in this little rig for about 6 hours.  I can't imagine sitting still for that much time.  This is not quite a Kayaak.

My guess is that is live bait, peanut bunker, which was heavey through out Jamaica Bay that week.  Aside from where do you go to the bathroom for 6 hours, and how do you prevent clamps, how do you avoid being eaten by blue fish?
Thank you.
Pee in a cup and wash it overboard.

I agree.  A boat that puts my heels eight inches below my behind is much more comfortable.  But still, I can only last about three hours.

Thats a nice kayak (hobie compass duo).  A good friend of mine use one of those solo to guide from.  Leaves a ton of room up front for a baitwell and fish cooler. 

They are surprisingly comfortable.  I can easily spend 6-8 hours in my hobie outback without hurting, and have covered nearly 20 miles in a trip before.
