Store Locations

You'd be surprised where you can get a good kayak nowadays. Like these places:

Dick's and West Marine have good selections of kayaks, parts, and accessories. Walmart and Tractor Supply also have a kayak selection, in-season. I hate to say it, but sometimes you can find good deals at Amazon too. Many Walmarts also have live earthworms for fishing.

It's just a matter of time before they show up at your local supermarket. (Kayaks, not earthworms. Maybe earthworms too, if Bill Gates gets his way. Yum!)

The Navesink River is more like a big brackish lake, except where it narrows-down and connects to Raritan Bay. While it is tidal, most of the river has negligible current, although it is wide enough to get choppy if the wind is strong. The water is generally clean, unlike the nearby Swimming River. Boat traffic is not too bad either.
