“Kayaks are relatively inexpensive (certainly when compared to power boats); can be easily transported without a trailer; allow anglers to access places such as narrow, shallow, rocky Hill Country rivers or knee-deep, back-bay flats that powerboats can’t; and, perhaps most importantly, can be a tremendously effective way to fish.”

Important options to consider for any quality fishing kayak: comfortable seat, durable rod holders and leashes, carrying weight, dry storage, and soft cooler storage.
