cheap canoe or kayak

[BMFScout]

I think I want a canoe, maybe a kayak. Mostly for dicking around at Scoutfourk, but also there is some pretty prime looking fishing on lavon really close to some boat ramps. Anyone ever use a Water Wagon, they look pretty cool too. Let me know what you have, thinking less than $200.

how much **** did you give me for wanting one a few years ago?

lets get a tandem and save money

You wanted it to yuppy it up on White Rock Lake on top of your LR. I want it to go fishing like a white trash redneck, and to make managing my pond easier. I wish you would have bought one, you would be about ready to Flem it out by now!

I was going to make the spillway my *****

I can probably find you a kayak next time I go back to houston. Any size/style preferences?

[BMFScout]

that would have been something, I would have paid money to watch that attempt.

I enjoyed canoeing when I went to Mizzou last summer and thought it would be cool. I know absolutely nothing about canoes or kayaks. I won't ever be near the ocean with it more than likely. I know on the pond I want to use it to sink structure, set out/retrieve decoys, fish etc. so I might need some room.

I would bet you would get the most use out of a sit on top kayak, I can probably find something pretty cheap that will do decent for short trips in smooth water.

I have spent quite a bit of time on both and much prefer a kayak. I dont know whats out there that is considered "cheap" for a kayak though. My experience with them has been limited to Ocean Kayaks. They straight up kick ass but are prety steep in price. I do know for a fact that they can withstand flying out of the back of a truck at ~60 miles per hour and landing on the side of the road.

when I was looking the only thing I found affordable was inflatable

most consider ocean kayaks to be cheap... However I fish the hell out of the cheapest of cheap which is the green pelican at academy. I might not be able to go as fast but never really had a balance problem.

I disagree with yall, Jimmy if you are look to throw a bunch of decoys, various car parts i.e. structure and want to be able to move around in it, ide go with a canoe preferably one in the 17ft range. They even make them with transoms so you attach a smal trolling motor when you feel real lazy.

im going to have my old man bring that boat in the next couple months fyi. he is coming for my when my niece is born/christmas

[BMFScout]

That's cool, maybe I'll use that out at Scoutfourk and get a kayak for fishing at the lake. One with a transom would be cool if I felt lazy and wanted to put a little trolling motor on there.
