Howdy y'all.

It's been a while since I've been on the board. Too busy to fish.....Good problem to have I suppose.

I want to get the wife set up with a good stable yak that she can fish fresh water from.

If you have something in the garage taking up space let me know and we can set up a time and work out the finances.

Regards,
Mike

Lot of good choices out there,
Before we make seggestions though it would be best to get a little info.
Basic stuff - Hight, Weight, etc.
Once you have the idea of what size yak you will be needing, check a few options and have her paddle them all.
The Ocean Kayak Trident series comes in 11', 13', and 15' and should fit most size anglers.

Another good option for the ladies is the Venus line, designed for and by Women

Again there are plenty of options out there and this is just a few.
Good luck and have fun picking the right one out for her.

See Ya Soon,

Thanks for the advice Eric.

She likes the Trident 11 that's the one she used in her class through Aquan.
She hasn't tried the Venus though.

I hope to have her ready to go by your Caples lake tournament. I plan on attending.
