Hey Dizzy, appreciate the input but I would rather go with someone who owns it. I am sure I will find a person to go with.Dizzy wrote:If you're comfortable being on water and are a capable swimmer, a good option Elly27, would be to get a Fishing kayak. You can get a good quality one for a few hundred smackos and coco bango, you're out on the water. I sold my last boat a few years ago for the same reasons some of the posters here stated, was not getting used, boat and trailer rego and ramp fees etc...on a yak, i've been able to fish rivers where boats cant get to, and i'm out in the inlet where I live a few times a week. Have also had it out in bass strait on calm seas but you want to be experienced before you try any of that.
If you did get a yak however, just gain a bit of experience in flat calm water before you attempt going out in one of the bays.
I started with a $600 yak from C Kayaks and decked it out, love it...but will be upgrading to a Hobie in the near future. As clinical tests prove that hobies catch more fish lol.
Good luck with your fishing mate and good on you for getting out there.
Thank you anyways
