Ascend FS12T opinions

Thanks for the replies. I think the Trident 14' is too much for me to haul in bed of my truck. Suppose to be getting a Malibu Stealth 12' tomorrow if all goes well.

I just bought my first kayak a couple weeks ago and I was pretty overwhelmed by the size (moving it around, etc.), but now that I have a system down it's not bad at all. You'll get used to it.

Well, this is depressing to read. I bought the Ascend FS12T because I hadn't discovered this sight yet. I plan on fishing salt water and it's not like I have a choice now. I guess I'll just have to make do and hope I don't get killed getting through the surf.

While I can't vouch for the ocean trident I can say that for the stealth it's one of the more cumbersome to paddle kayaks out there. Since its 33" wide and 12' the kayak takes more effort to get initial start up speed and maintenance of speed. Personally I wouldn't really recommend the kayak to anyone if they're not looking for stability and storage options.
