Looking for a kayak

[Patrick D]

Hi, I been looking around for a 10 to 12ft kayak for around $200-$250. if anyone has one please let me know with any detail and price

 

Thanks!

At that price you will not a find a "great" kayak. But you can find one.

 

Check out Dicks Sporting Goods... I think they have a few new ones at that range.

Yeah, i saw a guy on craigslist have a 800$ yak for 225$ and i called on it.. it sold 30mins before..

i think i might grab a kayak from farm and fleet.. i read some reviews its not bad i just want something stable enough for small rivers and lakes.. nothing for the fox or rock river but i thought i would post on here just to see if anyone had an older one or something just collecting dust

Hi Patrick

 

I have a kayak and I do not want to part with it. I respond only because I am so happy with it, that I can't help but recommend it to anyone considering kayak fishing. The problem is that it costs a bundle, and triggered an sudden case of buyers remorse. That feeling went away within 10 minutes after we hit the water.

 

Its a Hobie Outback. Its for fisherman, not for pure kayakers, and I could not be happier with it. My recommendation is that if you want a kayak for fishing, go with the Hobie Outback.

 

If that is absolutely not a possibility, then I recommend any of the SOT (sit on top) models.
