I'm looking to buy a kayak to fish from on small ponds/lakes. I wen't to basspro shops website and they have these kayaks the otter kayaks.

I bought 2 Otter XT's last year and like them alot for river/pond fishing..
The XT's have the foot braces and the padded seat..

Cool man :)2
What do you think about it? Does it feel restricting while casting or anything? Also how is the ride, I'm 6'0 and some people said the otters the cheaper one not the xt is a tight fit for a 6 footer. Can I have your measurements please? :)5 8:)

Or if you feel like private messaging me thats cool too.

I'm sorry Mr. Spoon I didn't see it. I promise it won't happen again. :oops:
I found a "Sit on Top" type kayak was easier and more stabil to fish from than a "Sit in" kayak. Many of the fishing specific kyaks are sit on top types. Bass Pro has those as well.
