WTB Kayak

[flockbuster]

Been looking at kayaks. Looked at a wilderness adventures and liked it. Found an Old Town catalog that has an interesting new model. The Ambush. It's kind of a kayak, canoe combo Anybody here ever use one? I want to use watever I get to duck hunt, fish and float the Edisto occasionaly. Maybe an overnight trip or two. Any suggestions?

Wilderness systems 12 footer is what I had. Sold to Jp.

For duck hunting I would be looking for a sit in kayak.

For fishing I liked my sit on top

for a trip- a sit in would be nice to stay dry, but a sit on top offers optimal storage.

That's from my first and experience

Dicks has got a few really good after Thanksgiving deals for the weekend on yaks I do believe. Check em out

I have a regular 9 foot islander that's a sit in, i paid like $265 for, love duck hunting out of it and can go in just a few inches of water.

Thanks everybody,

I went to Dick's last night. They had some good deals, just not what I was looking for. I found out about a place in Florence that sells, Native Watercraft and Wilderness Systems so I hope to check them out soon. Both of those companies have yaks that look like what I want, at least the pictues do anyway. I'll know it when I see the right one.

Thanks again

Try River Runners on Gervais Street in Columbia. Ask for Jesse. They are right next to the Blue Marlin.

My first was a WS Cape Horn sit in. Switched to the WS Tarpon 160 sit on. The sit in was too tight for me with a bad knee and fat gut. Owned a few other sit ons before deciding the Tarpon was the one. Descent stability and quick. The length aids in speed and tracking, but she's a little tough to turn without some room or a rudder. The one thing I hate above all else is built in footwells. They suck, suck, suck, and I only wear a size 11. Buy something with adjustable pegs or rests. Love those Native Watercraft too.

x2 on that...I love my native Ultimate. You can stand up in it, hunt out of it, fish out of it...you name it

NAtive also has a camo dodger system that fits into the track that runs down the side. Great accessory options. Wilderness just came out with camo as a color but it is just mixed green and brown plastic in the mold. Looks better than a solid color just do not expect to have a name brand (Mossy Oak, Advantage etc. ) Type look to it.

The Pungo 120 or 140 comes with a sweet accessory tray in the '08 and newer models. That is a sweet feature for hunting. I have the trays available as accessories (Seperate from the whole package) so if you get an older one that you find a good deal on PM me and I can see what my cost is on them.

I am in Hilton Head and have a used 120 Tarpon from WS for sale at my work. PM me if interested.

Have you looked @ buying from a summer camp? We got our daughter an $800 DAGGER, with spray skirt, hip/back pads, storage bags & gizmos for $225. Kayak was in great shape & had been well maintained.
