Looking for a good fishing kayak in the $500 range for my friend Caleb. Yes there's more than one Caleb. He's a vet looking for something to help him relax.
Thank you!

New he can get a West Marine Pompano 120 for under $500.  It's made by Perception (wilderness systems).  Pretty cool yak.  Flat deck.  Comes rigged with anchor trolley.  Place for Scotty mounts.  Deck hatches with bag.  Protected ocean or most lakes/rivers.

They extended the 25 off 1 item deal for today at sports authority. I think its online only. I have the pescador 12. Great kayak.

My buddy picked up a decent 12' from big 5. It's on the less expensive side but he's loving it as his first yak. $250
HOLY CARP!!!

The bass pro ascend kayak  is the most stable  ocean kayak I've been on.   I took mine out today for about a five hour trip out of Monterey.  I have own a perception, an Ocean kayak and have paddle the hobies and the pelican.  I won't go back to any of them but the ocean Malibu.

Post some photos up after Craig sends them to me.   If you're in the $500 range, it's definitely the way to go.

Sorry for the crappy spelling and punctuation errors. I'm using the text to talk app on my phone and it doesn't seem to work too well

I like the Ascend for $549. It's $720 with tax and shipping. Maybe he can wait until the Rocklin store is done and save $120. The seat look kinda like my pro angler seat.

Caleb...send a PM to gatorgrigs aka Dave Grigsby at Kayak Connection...he had some SMOKING deals on great yaks recently when he was selling off his rental/demo fleet...

Great guy and will be straight up with you about what he's got available. Tell him BigJim/NCKA sent you as well : )

They can't keep the fs12t on the shelf.
