Opinions Needed for first Kayak

Hello yakers,
I've been lurking this forum for a while and now ready to buy my first kayak.
Under a tight budget, so buying used is the only option.
I've came down to 2 yaks that I can buy.
First is a Ocean Scrambler, fair condition, need some works done with straps and I need to add some rod holders for fishing, maybe add a seat with backrest. Cost under $250.

Second is a Malibu Pro Explorer, 1.5 ft longer which is kinda a minus for me since I have a sedan acura and will be putting it on the roof with roof rack. Has built in rod holders, seats and paddles. Cost about $150 more at the top of my budget.

Now, this is where you guys came in. I need opinions/recommendations from people who've used these models before and which one should I pick? I will be using the yak for maily fishing the bays and perhaps occasional out to open water when the sea is calm.

Thank you very much
