That Native Ultimate 12 sure is nice. I really like the removale seat, plus it looks realy stable. I just can't talk my self into a 12 foot kayak.
I have CPS, (Chronic Pain Syndrome)a crappy back, and shoulder.
I fish the Finger Lakes Region, NY - Large lakes, rivers, outlets and even a few ponds in the area. Mostly panfish, small mouth, and even catfish now and then.
The 10 footers are more my size, Even though I'm 6'4". 12 footers tend to be 15 to 20 pounds heavier. Plus I put this thing on the Top of my Jeep. After a long day of paddleing it's a bit tuff to heave up there. I'm not getting any younger. I know I need to make a set of wheels to help haul all my stuff. The Asend FS10 Angler is still looking pretty good right now.
It's gonna be a long winter if we're look at new Yak's now
