Jackson Kayak

Cuda 12 Kayak - 2015

The subtle lines of the Jackson Kayak Cuda 12 Kayak belie its ferocious fishing features. Light and lively, this sit-on-top boat slices through both lakes and mellow rivers without hesitation as you go after your next prize catch. Whether you're fly fishing for trout or doing a little bass hunting, your rods won't get wet whether you're on the move or posted up on your honey hole, and the rectangular center storage hatch hides your secret weapon, a rod you like to call Wanda.

A sharp V on the bow helps the boat hew a fine line into the reeds. The Hi/Lo seat gives you a low profile when you're slicing through rough waters or stadium-like seating when you need a clear view of your surroundings.You can fit two regular-sized plastic tackle boxes under the seat, and, as long as you're riding high, you can grab 'em without standing up. The center storage hatch will hold extra rods or your tent if you're planning a full weekend on the water. Paddle holders prevent chips and dings when you need both hands free. The GoPro mount holds your waterproof camera so you'll have digital documentation of the one that got away. Ram Tough Tubes adjust depending on your needs: keep your rods at attention when you're cruising through the salts, or let them hang low when you're trolling in a fresh-water lake. The skid plate protects your boat on the way from the car to the lake, and the Jackson Kayak long-load safety flag protects your driving record if the boat butt hangs off your trailer a little too far for the taste of local law enforcement.
