I’ll stick with John boats.



I'm about 6'2" and close to 250. I have a 10.5' Perception kayak. I don't think I could tip the thing over if I tried. VERY stable. The seat is actually fairly comfortable, so it's easy to sit in all day. Getting in and out of it, though..... that can start to get difficult.

A friend of mine who is a much bigger fisherman than I am can filet a bluegill. Even the ordinary size ones, not just the bigguns. I never could do it, and I always scaled them. I saw a video on an easy way to filet, and I haven't tried it yet. I need to find that video again...
