Need a kayak - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Richard452 · 05-04-2016, 11:26 AM

Thanks for the comments guys, I could honestly go without standing in a yak but the main problem I have (which is why I'm here) is I have no place around me that allows you to demo a kayak unless it's a feel free or native slayer, it's not the best idea but I do need to order it online when I decide what to get

Look at the Kraken 13.5 or Kraken 15.5 depending on your size. Definitely an inshore/offshore kayak with speed and the ability to stand in if the conditions are right. I stand up in one all the time. You can demo them at either OEX Mission Bay or OEX Sunset Beach. We also ship to a hub or direct to your residence.

I have the Jackson Kraken 15.5. I am a big dude so it fits my needs getting in and out of the surf is SUPER easy. It is my first kayak so I don't speak from a variety of experience. However, Some on this thread have said it all... No kayak is "one size fits all" honestly you have to commit to trial and error. If you order it brand new I know that someone will snatch it up for close to the same price if you want to get a new "better fitting" kayak.

For what you're looking for I would recommend the Kracken 13.5.

It's not as Long and narrow and it punches through the surf VERY easy. Also, It is a very comfortable kayak to fish with for Hours on end if you so desire!

I have a Bass Pro Ascend FS12T, very stable but a tank, but very easy to stand in. I'll make you a hell of a deal on it.
