Malibu Stealth 12 taking on water - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hi,
Newbie here with a question. I recently bought a malibu stealth12 and have noticed that it takes in a lot of water. I was fishing the other day for about 4 hours in about 2 foot chop. I installed a bilge pump, thinking i wouldn't really ever use it, but flipped on after a couple of hours and it pumped out a ton of water! I couldn't believe it, had to be maybe 2-3 gallons. Anybody else have any similar experiences with these kayaks?
