The largest difference between fishing kayaks and other kayaks is usually in the way they're rigged with a complex array of fishing accessories attached into a comparatively small area. The ease with which these accessories might be added to a routine kayak shortly resulted in the development of a different line of kayak models designed specifically for the angler.

feeling the cold, brisk air, I rolled over and hopped off the pull out couch. The idea of being in a small kayak in the ocean off the coast of Seward, Alaska was a little terrifying.

My family had been talking about this kayak adventure since we planned our vacation to Alaska. I had no idea what to expect. All I knew is that I was a
