Okay, I'm sick of snags and poor luck off the rocks so am considering getting a Kayak.

I'm on trademe, it may seem obvious or maybe dumb but where do you store your catch?

A proper fishing kayak has a space behind the seat for an insulated catch bag or chill pod

I’m not familiar with that brand, but yes, the rear well is where the fish go

Frustration with fishing off the rocks creates a lot of kayak fishos Smile

As above, fishing kayaks have space in the rear well for a chily bin or bag. Generic advice is stick with well known brands i.e. Viking or Ocean Kayak. Safety is an issue, so you want something reliable.
