Ultimate 12

Perfect kayak fishing craft. Holds loads of gear, remarkably stable and comfortable. Have used to float hole to hole for steelhead on Michigan streams. Making hairpin turns and dodging deadfall is a breeze on Pere Marquette and Little Manistee Rivers. Easy to get in and out even in full wading gear and clothing layered for 35 degrees! Don't bother with the "angler" model. Learn what you need and rig it up yourself. A joy on small lakes and ponds -- buy the accessory paddle clips to store paddle while fishing. They got this boat right!!
