My lazy ass brother

My brother wants to do kayak fishing with me but he doesn’t want to do any paddling.

So my question is what is the best way to get a kayak going with the trolling motor?

What are the important need to knows?

What is a good kayak in the $500 to $800 (not including the motor) range and that can support someone that is 6’3 280 pounds?

A small boat and tell him that he has to pay for it!!!

Im lazy these days so i can relate.

Sounds like the best kayak is a 10-12' aluminum boat with a trolling motor and a pair of batteries. Everything about kayakfishing is work, loading/unloading, setup, paddling, fighting wind/current, hell just the thought of changing into a drysuit and pfd get me burnt out.  Im all about backing the boat in and sipping coffee as i blast from spot to spot

A Hobie, though they're not cheap.

A used beater 12' jon boat with trailer can be found in that price range.  It doesn't sound like he wants a kayak.

Put a motor on it and the DMV will have its hands in your wallet for as long as you own the kayak.

12’ boat

Just tell him to stay home and go with your experienced fishing buddies! hahaha!

Word

12’ boat

At 280 lbs I would suggest a 14 ft aluminum if 2 will be fishing. If he really wants to yak, then a beater hobie with a watersnake TM might be the way to go.

Tell his ass to stay home. Kayak fishing is not for him.

^^^^THIS!

Yeah he will never be on a yak. Tell the slacker to stick to the remote control.

This is exactly what I did!
