The newest model out for the angler kayaker
It's the Jackson Kayak Coosa
Shorter in stature 11'3" but the craze is on!

I own a Perception Aquaterra Prism. 14' 4" long It's a fast yak, not really a fishing yak but I rigged it to become one. Not a beginner yak, it's not very stable, it was built for speed. This model is an older model but I had used one in Hawaii years ago and I always loved this yak. So I waited patiently until I found one here in TX. My next choice would have been a Heritage Redfish. But now I got my eye on the model above. Says you can actually stand on this model. Hmmm something to look forward to!

This thread looks great!

I've been interested in learning for a couple of years, maybe this summer will have to be the time. There are a couple of places near me that rent equipment by the hour, day, or longer, and give classes.

I have subscribed and will be keeping up with the thread.

Thanks

I don't know if I kayed I would fall in probably and not really like that so I don't think I would do it unless a nice butch came with me to help me out in the deep waters of the river..just saying

I didn't know this thread existed! Nother amateur yak lover here!

My first trip in the water was a rafting expedition. White water was thrilling, i now prefer smooth water paddling. I'll save the wild water for group trips

so took the plunge and bought the last of the three.

even though it was the most expensive it had the best reviews. Also I like the idea of it being a little different style, since my non-inflatable is a sot.

I did order it through walmart. Price was a few dollars cheaper and I can have it delivered there. Also if i have any problems I can take it back there, which is an advantage to amazon.

I guess i'm becoming a kayak addict

but it will be nice to have something more portable.

some of the places i go to i need to go take me through the tahoe area where they have boat inspections and since i'm just driving through to get from point a to b i don't want to have to mess with that!

It will be nice to have something i can take with and just go if I feel like it.

already justifying my addiction
