Any thoughts on OK Torque vs Hobie PA? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I recently moved to San Diego and was forced to sell my boat. Kayak fishing looks like a lot of fun, but I've never paddled and I'm a novice fisherman so hands free fishing seems to be the way to go. That said, the two most reasonable options look to be the Hobie PA and the Ocean Torque. The Hobie looks like a great choice for stability and gear storage, but its pretty heavy, I'm getting old (60), and my knees are starting to feel their age. The Torque seems like a good choice, but I haven't read much about its stability. I'm going to take some lessons before I get started and will fish the bays and the bridge, but eventually I'd like to fish the LJ kelp and Baja. Any feedback would be really appreciated.
