![]() The Sport Fisher's ultra-stable hull lets you stand while fishing. |
The Sport Fisher owes its stability to its UV-protected, high-density polyethylene chassis and smartly shaped hull, which is built to provide extreme steadiness and great tracking. The kayak also provides a number of handy fishing-friendly features, including four fishing pole holders, a 6-inch rear storage hatch, ditty trays and shock-cord straps to secure loose items, and scupper holes that drain the cockpit area. Plus, the kayak is easy to carry thanks to the molded front and rear handles and lightweight 60-pound frame. Additional features include multiple footrest positions for riders of different sizes, a front and rear molded paddle cradle with paddle clips on both sides, and an understated olive green color.

Amazing fishing kayak!,

First of all, know exactly what you are buying. You are buying a FISHING KAYAK, not a touring kayak. I use this as a single person kayak, though it can be used as a tandem.
The kayak is heavy, almost 70 lbs, and it's wide. If you're under 5'9" you are going to have a hard time using the single side carrying handle since the yak is so wide. Standing up, sitting down and casting are surprisingly easy, though being only 5'5" I have a low center of gravity so it may be easier for me than most. The features are great. I replaced the seat back with a higher end touring seat and would recommend you do the same if you will be using the yak for more than 2 hours. The yak came with 2 paddles, 2 seat backs and 5 scupper plugs even though there are only 2 scupper holes. The built in tie down points, waterproof rear entry point and fold down paddle clips are invaluable! There is even a molded hole in the rear of the frame for a future motor mount which I plan on using. For the $500 I paid, shipped, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect fishing kayak.

Fantastic, Convenient, and Fun,

This review is from: Lifetime Sport Fisher Kayak with Paddles and Backrests (Olive Green, 10-Feet) (Sports)
I ordered this for my husband for Fathers Day. I didn't want a 'boat' we had to deal with the licensing; trailer and more licensing; light hook-up; taxes, and more taxes; etc.
This seemed a perfect size that we could lift and maneuver together, and it is. We are in our 50's, so not so strong as we used to be, and we can easily lift this up into our truck camper. It fits in there beautifully when we take the table down to make a bed, and lift the nose of the Kayak into the over cab bed. Takes us about 30 seconds to load and a minute to unload. Initially I had planned on staying inside the camper while he went out to fish, but felt well enough to at least try it with him for an hour or so. We ventured out to a quiet, empty, glass still lake to try it for the first time. I will say it takes a little bit of finesse to get 'on' and 'off' , but it is made extremely well balanced and we did not get dumped into the lake. I think if we find a boat dock to use it will make it easier on our non-limber bones. Anyway, once we got out and began our adventure we did TRY to tip this over and we gave it quite a rocking and I'm pleased to tell you it didn't spill us. ( For the Ladies, I went out in a dress too, and paddled Hubby all across the lake while he fished. It was plenty comfortable to wear a skirt or dress in!!! ) We were amazed with how comfortable this is. We did not have cushions, or padding of any sort, didn't even use the seat backs that came with it, but we stayed out our first time for 4 hours. I have back pain, Husband bad hips, and neither of us had any discomfort during, or after. Just looked a bit silly getting in and out. :) I have to say, this was one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. Although originally purchased for my Husband alone, it became a double gift. I can be out and enjoy the stillness and quiet of a morning slowly drifting in this little Kayak, and he can sit in the rear seat fishing to his hearts content as I navigate. Thanks so much, once again, Amazon. Because we live in a small town in Nowhere USA, had I not seen this on Amazon, we wouldn't have known it existed. Many years of quiet weekend mornings ahead with this purchase, and for the happiness this has brought us... priceless!!!
