Fishing Kayak Reviews

>>Reviews>>Fishing

Fishing kayaks are the perfect way to get to your favourite marks. Near-silent craft which do little to disturb your catch offer a great platform on which to store equipment, rods, bait and whatever you pull from the water. There are many manufactures producing kayaks specifically for fishing and each has unique features and design. Here are the reviews we have already done, more will appear as new boats are released. If you would like us to test a specific boat or would like advice get in touch with the team on reviews@canoe-shops.co.uk

Perception Triumph 13 Review

The Triumph 13 is the latest Fishing Kayak from Perception. With a touring profile and added length, it paddles brilliantly, while still providing a great angling platform. A brand new design and packed with new features.

Feel Free Moken 10 Review

The Moken 10 is the smallest fishing kayak in the Feel Free range. That does not stop it from being a great fishing kayak by any stretch however, as the team proves. A shorter, wider profile making it super stable does not compromise speed or deck space.

Wilderness Systems Tarpon 100 Review

The smaller of the Tarpon range of boats. Not a specifically designed angling kayak, but with all the pedigree to do so and do it well! We find out if, with some modifications this boat can fish.

Hobie Outback Review

Hobie Outback Review

The Hobie Mirage Outback is a remarkably stable, yet swift kayak that includes Hobie’s famous Mirage Drive system. This provides you with the option to give your arms a rest and use your legs to power the kayak.

Feel Free Moken 12 Review

The Moken 12 is the bigger brother of the Moken 10. 2ft longer and a very different design, it is not simply a scaled up Moken 10. A different feel and many design features.

Many of our staff are very keen kayak anglers, and as well as the reviews features on this website they often take a camera with them then they hit their favourite mark. Below are some catch reports from our team of paddlers:
