Question for Boat owners - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nic D · 01-18-2015, 08:31 AM

had an ocena kayak trident then sold it to buy an outback. then sold the outback to buy a triumph skiff. then sold the skiff to buy the 22' seafox viper with a 200 yamaha. Love my boat wouldnt go back. I can cover way more water on the boat vs. yak. plus we fish cat sci coronados. yes its costly and more work, but to me its worth it.

I have a boat and a kayak. I only fish on the kayak. The boat gets used maybe 5 times a year. Only reason I keep it for when the whole family gets together. Thought of buying a skiff for fishing. But think I going to stick to the kayak.

100 % agree with Nick. I had a skiff, sold it when my son was born 8 years ago, got a hobie sport then moved to the quest 13 for open water, then a revo so I could go further, son wanted to go out with me so got another skiff, now in the market for a 25 foot walk around or pilot house. We will most likely have a kayak or paddle board to go with it but the boat is king for us as we go out as a family a lot more now that our kids are older and can drive the boat while I fish.

This thread is kind of silly to me. comparing a kayak to a boat is like
comparing a bicycle to car. if you can't catch fish on a boat...not in a kayak either. Like a car, if you can't afford a boat and you still want to fish, buy a
kayak.
