I have some serious skinny water in my location. Or at least I have to go through some skinny water to get to some fish holding areas. Anyone have any recommendations on kayaks or canoes? I am leaning towards a Old Town kayak. Just curious how they cut through the current.

Or one of those new 'hobie's" that I see Hank Paker
promoting. Looks interesting.

Do you really need that many Rapala to catch fish?

Do you really need that many Rapala to catch fish? Jeez how old is this thread? And no, one doesnt need that many - but it's always nice to have the options when you need them. Color, sizes, diving depths, etc... And the last time I checked you cant fit a tackle box in a kayak..  |

This is a very old thread and I didn't expect anyone would reply to my posting.
It will be difficult for a lot of people who are used to bring a lot of lures to cut it down to a much lower numbers for Kayak. Fishing kayaks nowadays designed with great storage to carry your lures and tackle. I always carry 2 lures boxes, some plastics, and tackle in my backpack along with 4 rods with me for the whole day of fishing. Simple, cheap and exercise too. But please don't let me talk anyone here into buying a kayak for fishing, motor boat is the best way for fishing period.

i have an inflatable sit on top kayak. it's really safe (i had a bad accident, i was caught into a dam but survived because it was able to float even in that situation), it's easy to use and store, but it's slow, doesn't have much storage space (although you have a small backpack linked to the back of the seat) and when you go near obstacles you don't feel that safe...
