Looking for a kayak on a budget - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hey for $200 it's worth taking a look at. Just make sure it isn't cracking and showing signs of sun damage. The last thing you want to do is throw $200 away that could go towards a nicer yak.

There may be a reason it is painted. Might be hiding something. If your gonna buy it have the guy fill it with water half way to make sure she's water tight.

Ok so just got back from my first yak fishing experience , I had a blast paddledfor 7 hours and im not even feeling it (probably tomorrow lol)

Heres some pictures ...Before Perris , during and after hehe.....got skunked today ....fish werent shallow and I havent purchased a battery for my sonar yet so I was a bit blind ....one guy did tell me he caught a 10.2 hog trolling.

Anyways was mostly out trying the yak, worked out great for me ...ofcourse want something bigger nicer in the future but this will be my project for now , i have alot of plans for it ...repaint(properly), sonar... ect ect

side note.....also learned that my ass does not like being wet ....waders please .....also cant wait to take it out to newport ...now THATS going to be exciting...havent fished there in years!

Newport had just been rough lately. It's a good place to get your fix if it's closer to you. When you decide to come out, hot me up
