thanks for the help in advance, hope I can start contributing to the board once I get my yak!!!!

Sure the Moken 10 would do fine out in the LJ but I would go with the 12.5 for a faster paddle, you'll still get the same stability, and the same comfort that the 10 has. I wouldn't go out with anything less than 12' for surf launching and ocean fishing. The Moken 10 is great for rivers, lakes, and bays.

Awesome thanks guys. I want to be versatile, even though I'll mostly be in the bays it would be nice to venture out. I'll test paddle a few 12-13 foot yaks one last time before taking the plunge!!! So hard to choose with so many brands carring nice looking yaks this size!!!
