The Best Fishing Kayak? One Angler's Perspective

I've decided it's time to buy a pedal-drive kayak. But which one is the best fishing kayak for my situation? Maybe you have this same question too. So I'm going to break down my research before I spend a chunk of cash on my next pedal drive kayak.

I'll talk about drive systems, portability, and fishing features. Which one will I choose?

It's great to support your local Kayak Distributor, but if you don't have one locally, or just prefer the convenience of having a new kayak delivered to your door, Check out Fish USA. They carry most of the models I cover in this video:
