Fishing Kayaks are becoming increasingly popular in Australia and many Australians are ditching the boat to make way for a kayak which is purpose built for the angler. The Weekend Warrior range includes the entry level all rounder kayak which is if you want to occasionally throw a line in, to the kayak with a full rudder steering system with ample storage for the catch.
The fishing kayaks are designed with built in rod holders, hatches, bucket wells, anchor points and so much more to keep you on the water for hours.
The most important element of a fishing kayak is stability and comfort. You need to be able to stand in a kayak and cast the rod, as well as ample space for all the fishing gear.
We have 3 styles of Fishing Kayaks:
Sit in Fishing Kayak
Sit on Top Fishing Kayak With Rudder
Sit on Top Fishing Kayak WITHOUT RUDDER
If you are a serious angler it is vital you consider a kayak with a rudder system, this keeps your kayak running straight and you can orient the boat to any angle and chase those fish. A rudder is vital in ocean conditions so you can steer your kayak in strong currants and offshore winds.
PROS AND CONS OF A FISHING KAYAK
PROS: Built for Fishing, Length usually up to 3.7 metres so they are short enough to turn in rivers and lakes to get into those tight fishing spots, stable enough to stand in and cast.
