KAYAK HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
Message:
hello, i noticed there are alot of kayak fishermen here. i have never fished a kayak but i am strongly considering getting one so i can really get out on the water. i know nothing about kayaks so i would appreciate it of i can a little bit of info from some of you guys. also im a big guy 6ft and 275 lbs so i need something that i can sit in comfortably. the sit on kayaks kind of scare me so i would prefer a sit in. anybody know what make/model would be good for my size? im hoping to stay in the $300-500 range. but will consider spending more if i must. also is it comon for kayaks to flip and ifso how hard is it so slide out and then get back in? please help me!

Hi CatDaddy ! Phil (aka PeCo) is the man to talk to. Highly suggest thought you try before you buy. (on the water!) I'm 5' 11" and 257 and personally find a kayak to be very difficult to get in and out of + my legs get cramped. SeaDog1

A lot of kayak outlets that are on the water offer a trial time on the water...usually about 30 minutes to test a kayak out. I would suggest going and trying out a few different ones. Of course once you find the brand/model you like you can then go out and buy it wherever if the price is better elsewhere.
