If I have the improved grapple feat, does it affect kelpstrand?
Make a ranged touch attack at each target. If you hit a creature, you immediately make an opposed grapple check against the creature as a free action without provoking attacks of opportunity. You add your caster level and your Wisdom bonus to the result of your grapple check rather than your Strength bonus and size bonus. If you succeed, the target becomes entangled in the thick strands of kelp and is grappled.
The bold parts make it sound like you are making the grapple, using the strand, rather than the spell making the grapple using your caster level and wis modifier. Thus you should also get the bonus for having improved grapple feat.
Edit: you also use your BAB too, right?
Is that how it should work?
