First yak, Solo or Tandem

I plan to get a yak for fishing in lake or coast near shore. I am wondering if I can get a tandem and use as solo when I am fishing.  Because my wife would like to yak with me but not when I am fishing.

Go solo, and rent for the wife when she wants to go 

Well here is some advice from personal experience.

Try the native magic 14.5 out, I'm sure the bay dealers let you do this.

It paddles really well solo, in fact I think the tandem option was somewhat of an after thought.  Does muck better than the other brands XL.

Check it out, I am new to the kayak thing but have literally demoed at least 4 different brands and styles, the magic works well, a little heavy, but very versatile.  I have caught lots of rockfish off of it, and have owned it for a short time.

Good luck, o yeah the seating on them is heads and shoulders more comfortable that anything else on the market.

My long time girl friend and I have done both, single and tandem, a couple of years ago we went to dinner with some friends, They said, "hey you guys kayak, we're thinking about it, should we get singles or a double?" Before they actually finished the question my girlfiiend and I both blurted out Singles!!!!!!!!!
