WTB 13' Kayak - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Fish4Fun · 02-17-2010, 10:25 PM

I am looking to buy a used kayak in the 13' range, hopefully and prefer it to be fully rigged with FF, Bait Tank, Rod holders, seat and paddle.

I like the X13 and Trident 13 (test paddled both). I also think the Cobra Marauder will fit my need, altho' I haven't test paddled this yak.

Let me know if you have anything you think fits my need.

A few pointers on the Cobra Marauder....the center rectangular hatch/cutting board is a great idea but it reduces the width of the leg wells and if you have thick calves like I do, It becomes uncomfortable. The high decks catch the wind and the bow handle pulled out after the first few trips.
On the positive, it's light for it's size...punches thru surf easily and is very fast....I'm looking at the new Pro Fisherman model.
