Moken10 vs moken 12.5 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PE.rider · 06-01-2013, 06:18 PM

I've fished off the Moken 10 Angler at OEX Sunset Beach a week ago and found that it paddles well, tracks well, and is relatively quick. It has the right amount of hatches and storage and is very sturdy.

Mokens tend to be heavier like the Jackson's, so they are more durable. On the other hand, if you don't relish loading and unloading excess weight, or do not have rollers to assist, then the Moken Lite may be an option as well.

If you stay within the harbors, then stay with the 10. Otherwise, go for the 12.5, which will be flexible enough to allow you to explore outside the harbors.
