Noob in search of a kayak - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Dunegoat · 06-13-2011, 04:58 AM

I've got a Cobra Fish n Dive in great condition (it's a couple years old but no holes have been drilled in the hull and it has seen no abuse) I'd part with for $425. Includes seat, paddle and crate with 4 rod holders.

haha already lookin to move onto bigger things huh Randy?? Good luck sellin the yak. It was fun out there the other day, next time better fishing for sure.

Yea. Looking into something bigger for those long paddles. I'm just not looking forward to the price tag they carry. But the FnD is a great kayak for a beginner. Very stable, lots of deck space and the priced to move.

I'm looking forward to going out again soon. Probably next weekend. And yea, the bite last weekend was slow as heck. Lets hope for good things next time.

FND are great boats. But really meant for larger people.

If you are not 200lbs + with strong arm strength, you'll end up selling it after 2 outings.

If you are not a big guy, something like this prowler 13 for $400 would be a good boat that you won't have to upgrade for a few years.

Not my boat, just posting something I found on CL.
