The choices are Old Town Predator or Ocean Kayak Big game.
Or am I missing other choices.
The other thing is these boats are in the price range, but is there a better boat for a better price tag.

Very nice boats. Will be looking at them ASAP.

those look fun. The only thing is is my dog and shot gun and decoys have to go with me. Now one of those will be perfect for my daughter.
Thanks guys for your input..

Another one I like is the inflatable by advanced elements. No loading sets up fast.
good luck.

My sled is a good way to go as well, but for slipping into a marsh a kayak would be fun. :)
Still having a tough time buying another boat. I have 3 already, but this one would be cheap for up keep. :yike:

Ive been reading stuff about this thing for along time now and it seems pretty tough. The older models had a few kinks in them but they seemed to have addressed them all and worked everything out. So if you read some bad reviews they're mostly on the old models. Its the same one Im picking up soon.
It has great stability and will easily carry 350+ lbs, has a double pontoon style bottom hull that makes even standing an ease.
It has tons of available storage and is fully customization... There's tons of videos on youtube with different things guys have been doing with these things.

1 more to look at. Thanks for the input. I like the space it has for my deeks and dog.
The winchester waste way will never be the same once I get one of these bad boys. :)

I have been wanting to check out the Hobie Kayaks.
Not cheap but I watched a young guy peddle, not paddle, one all day at Baker Lake and he did well on Sockeye. He had a fish finder on that thing as well. Might check prices at Western Canoe and Kayak in Abbotsford BC, just north of Bellingham. You don't have to pay sales tax and they are made in California so no duty. Also keep in mind that the price they quote is CN Dollars and they are at about a 20% discount to US Dollars. 604-853-9320
