Fishing Kayak Storm Proof Paddle Holder - California
Dennis Vircks is a saltwater Wavewalk kayak fisherman from Huntington Beach, California.
Dennis contributed his kayak review to this website, and many excellent outfitting and rigging ideas, such as this ’storm proof’ paddle holder system: 
As it’s easy to see, this paddle isn’t going anywhere even when Dennis is fighting a fish or busy with his electric trolling motor, and even if the kayak is in turbulent water.

This picture shows the inner side of the cockpit, where Dennis attached a Nylon eyelet that serves as an attachment point for the hook on the bungee cord:
The hook prevents the bungee from coming out of its place when holding the paddle.
The last picture shows the paddle holder from inside the cockpit, with the hook securing the bungee to the eyelet.

Fishing in deep saltwater is a different game altogether. Things are constantly moving, and you need to secure everything to the boat.

I find the rubber paddle holders that come with the W paddle to be pretty good.
