Lookin to buy a yak - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I'm 5'11 220 and had both Hobie Revolution and Outback. Plenty of room in both, and the peddle frees you up a bit more for fishing. But if you're more into paddling I hear good things about Jackson kayaks.

If you're cost conscience then Malibu kayaks are good too. 12' minimum I'd say. Anything shorter and stability becomes a bit of an issue.
