Spent another few hours on the river. I'm enjoying kayak fishing, having a little bit of trouble positioning though. I'm thinking of making a drag chain to slow me down and straightening me out. Anybody have pictures of ones they have made or use?
 
I understand. Use the cushion to fish and sit on the seat as is for 'racing'. ;)

Just in case there's anyone following this...

I wound up selling one of our Pescadors and replacing it with a more "recreational" kayak for river use and casual family excursions.

Then I set out to address the seat on the remaining Pescador.

My wife has a Perception Tribute 10.0 that has a nice seat with a thigh-lifter to support the back of the leg, much like the ones on Wilderness kayaks. I bought one of those thigh supporters and the corresponding bottom and back pads, and modded them to work on the Pescador with a layer of 1/2" closed-cell foam underneath for a bit of extra cushion.

The end result is a seat very similar to the Tarpon, for only $60 or so...and it looks like it came that way.
