Catch0,
The Wilderness Systems Tarpon 140 rigged for fishing is a best sit on top on the market right now. As for a sit in the Pungo 140 is also a good choice. We rig most of the kayaks with angler packages based on the user needs. All SB members are entitled to a 10% discount from us. Visit the Wilderness website and check them out.

you sell perception boats?
If I don't have anything to do with the water, It ain't worth doing.

The Perception Bimini is a fine Yak also. Don't forget it when shopping around.

I own a Tarpon 160, 140 and had a 120. I love these yaks!

The 160 is what I will fish in big water and I took the 140 out for the first time last night... NICE YAK! I can't believe how stable that thing is! If I didn't have so much gear on my first trip with it I would have tried standing up. It felt so solid that I am sure I would have not had a problem but I'll leave that for a day I take it out to test its limits, with no gear.

Do yourself a favor and try the Tarpons - at KingCove if possible.

Tight Lines,
Rob
