I've been to Fastlane and done my research on the PA's but just can't spare 4k to stay dry and stand on a kayak. Being that I have some back problems I'm leaning toward a mirage drive system. I've looked at the new Native Slayer Turbo drive but with my long legs it seems like my knees would be hitting my arms as I fish. As some of you know, I'm fairly new to kayak fishing but please know I'm an avid fisherman both inshore and offshore. I am hooked on the sport and am eager to expand my fishing zones as I feel limited to the bays with my current yak. I'd like to get a fully set up yak and keep my other for friends and/or girlfriend to use. Does anyone have any input and or a PA for sale? I figure, go big or go home so I'm leaning toward a 14. Opinions on the difference between the 12 and 14 are also very welcome. I value the opinions of the experienced and knowledgable anglers on this forum and any advice would help me out a lot!
I'm 6'3' 210 and I have the revolution and feel very comfortable on it. The outback and revolution would both suit you fine if you did not want to spend so much on the PA. Maybe you should test out a kayak before making the big purchase
