A buddy of mine let me borrow his kayak to go fishing a few days back and now I'm hooked. Completely different experience than using a boat. Don't know much about them and what to look for but I've been doing some research and hope you guys can help me out with the rest.
My main areas of use would be ponds, rivers, lakes. Close inshore would be the extreme of what I would use it for so I don't think I'd really need a sea kayak.
Looking for one that can be used to fish as well as general recreation so one that has space for camping stuff, coolers etc is definitely a plus.
My budget for one is going to be around 600-800 for the kayak itself.
So far here's a list of what I'm looking at:
WS Tarpon
Perception
Old Town
Read a bunch of threads about Jackson Kayak Coosa but since they are fairly new there's not that much out there yet.
Hope you guys can steer me in the right direction as to length, models, weight, etc.
Also any pics you would be willing to put up would be a great help as well.
Thanks in advance !!!
