In Reply to: Sit-on-top or Recreational Kayak? posted by Newbie on June 26, 2002 at 00:02:56:
: My wife and I were going to buy a canoe, so that way I could fish and my wife could relax and enjoy the sights in an economical kind of way. However, I have been exposed to the world of yak fishing and I am very intrigued.
: I was wondering what the consensus was for the style of yak that would best suit our purposes. We want a tandem for use almost exclusively in fresh water - lakes and slow rivers. I of course am interested in a real light fishing set-up, with paddle clips and a rod holder. My wife wants something comfortable where she can sit back and read and enjoy watching me restle the fish in.
: I have really liked the Wilderness Systems boats with the phase III seating. I have seen the Pamlico (Excel) with the open cockpit and very much like this boat. However, I have seen the tandem Equator sit-on-top on their web site. I know you guys seem to exclusively use the sit-on-tops for the ocean fishing. However, I would like to hear your thoughts and recomendations for my slightly different intended purposes. Thanks for any help that you could provide us
You cant go wrong with the Pamlico.I tried the solo versions-120 and the 140.Loved the 140 but its a tad to long to carry in the back of my Toyota PU.I bought a WS Pungo.
