Kayaks are small, narrow boats generally manned by one individual, who uses a double-bladed paddle to propel the craft. The Inuits, who are indigenous people living in the Arctic regions of Greenland, Alaska, and Canada developed this watercraft.  Except for the cockpit to seat the paddler, the top of the craft is fully covered. The spray deck prevents the entry of water through the cockpit. This gives the Kayaker the ability to roll the craft in water without water entering the craft.

Deciding on fishing kayak needs a bit of homework on your part. You have to decide where you plan to fish, whether it is in freshwater or saltwater or whether you will be navigating streams. Also, you should decide whether you are going to use it for fishing alone or plan to use it for recreational activities with family.

Most importantly, you have to decide whether you want to paddle or pedal.
