new found yak (new to me)

[beer]

anyone here or have or even use a heritage...
they look kind of cool, just when you figure out witch yak you want and all of a sudden BAM!!! ya stumble on another good find.anyway check the s.o.t. anglers let me know what yaou think.

by the way when i get one, I live in the pasadena MD. area and I have a few piers and boat ramps in my neighborhood if anyone wants to do some fishing around I'm about a 40 min. yak ride from the key bridge I 695..

They are a step down from the prowlers etc you were looking at before but should suit what you want to do nicely.

If you are going out in the bay make sure you have enough boat for it. You want a good mix of stability and length for those long paddles into the wind and chop.

I have a heritage fisherman 14' comes with 3 rod holders i like it alot, very stable, dry, self bailing and easy to paddle i wish it had dry storage in the cockpit for cell phone and wallet etc. but no biggie i really hate it when the phone rings while i'm fishing anyway.

phone what phone?? I told my wife that there is this one spot on AI that gets no reception on my phone and it happens to be in the spot where the fish are at. and so that's where I fish at or close to it.

you'll want a sit on top kayak for use in the surf. The other specs are dependent on what you want to use it for in the surf at AI

A good do it all "inexpensive" yak is the ocean kayak scrambler. If someone was looking for a yak to surf launch and possibly get into fishing later this would be my reco. If you have a higher budget look into OK prowlers or wilderness systems tarpons.

If you have a high budget look into the hobie line, they are way cool!
