Message:
Just got back from Highland,, my buddy has a fancy fishing kayak and a canoe,, at first I told him I was looking into buying a kayak,, he told me to hang off and first try his,, first of all getting into it was work, never mind getting your feet wet,, second of all How THE HELL do you see what your fishing,, it was hard to stand up in,, I got cramps from sitting like that,, you cant even move around,, I thought loading it and unloading it was a pain,, its easier to load my stratos,, waves were coming over the kayak,, what a freakin JOKE,,, you guys can have them,, you guys dont even know what your missing!!!! Better off buying a little 14ft row boat,,, maybe for a workout,, but holy crap,,, your better off with a canoe,,, I wouldnt take one even if it was givin to me,,, for fishing,,, ARE YOU CRAZY,,, and this thing was all padded, you fit nice into it,,, after a couple hours I went to him and took the canoe,,, he laughed,,, I dont see how the hell you guys can see what your fishing,,, your missing so much,,for anybody looking to buy one for fishing,,, let me tell you,,, you better try one first,,, like I said the canoe was 100% better,,, PERIOD

What do you mean when you say " how do you see what you're fishing" ? The perspective of being close to the water vs in a boat you are higher above the water? I can see just fine. Sure there are pros and cons to kayak vs boat and seeing as you are a boat guy I can see how you are hating everything about the kayak experience. It's not for everyone that is for sure. I love my kayak. It runs on me so I can go even when the money is short. At least you tried it before you bought one.

Kayaks are good if you are fishing a very shallow weed filled pond, since 90% of the structure and cover is visible. I agree with you that kayaks SUCK in lakes with pleasure boaters.
