Cool it for a day or two give folks that know lots about Kayaks a chance to have a say......freshwaterfella wrote:So now that you a little more about me do you still think the ride 115??
I don't know the 115 so it would be daft of me to say..... but it looks the part, seems to offer a tad more space and appears to be aimed at the fisho more than the paddlers that just cruise around. Fighting and landing fish means you need to move around, windy day you don't want to have to give it a miss cos its too rough. You are the one that has to sort it out. Think on what-ifs a bit @Laneends has said your first pick may be a dud on windy days, bigger yak than you have may just catch more of the wind. The folks that make the 115 are pretty much into it so Google the 115 and look at Youtube find users and see how they go....forget the sales talk on those things, look for folks that are pushing the boundaries a bit with what they get into with it.
One thing I will say is while you have to use other folks wheels, light and handy is good for them and so its good for you too, for now! AND read the Safety stuff posted on this Forum, don't want to hear about you get a new yak and tip with no jacket and stuff......OK?
Also, you know the turf looking ahead a bit do you think that being able to stand and cast will help?
