I’m planning on getting a kayak for some inshore squidding and on lakes and rivers. I am planning on getting a feel free moken but I’m unsure what length to get. Cheers

Lol I was hoping you would say the cheapest onesmile0784 wrote:Biggest one you can afford lol
I'll back this up Ian is on the money -- I myself don't use a peddle kayak but most of my fishing is at anchor or on the troll4liters wrote:For lure fishing get a pedal yak if you can afford one. On a paddle yak you can't easily move and cast at the same time - you are constantly alternating between holding your paddle and your rod. I found the most effective way was to guesstimate your drift direction, throw out a drift chute and drift over the target, then paddle back and reset. By comparison my pedal yak is like having a trolling motor, I am able to hold position over the target against wind and current while keeping my hands free for fishing.
If all you were doing was fishing at anchor there is very little difference between a pedal and paddle yak.
Definitely look at second hand yaks, you can usually find one fully fitted out for half the price of the yak and gear brand new.
