i have recently started kayak fishing and have become obsessed with it. i bought a cheap future beach SIK 2 months ago. i have decided to upgrade. im looking for less then 12 footer (due to storage constrants). also want to be able to stand up and fish on it. right now im almost sold on the jackson coosa, also considering the diablo chupacabra. but before i buy i wanted to see if any one else could let me know if there are any other brands i should consider. thanks for your suggestions

Malibu Kayaks Mini X or the new Stealth 9 that is basically the Mini X with a bait well.
Just one more cast!

Coosas are great for standing and are only 11' 9".

Check out the post below this one, he is selling a fairly new coosa. Sometimes the right price can make your decision for you

Drop by the store for a totally no-pressure visit and we can set up a no charge Ride 115 demo for you. Judging from your comments, the Ride sounds like your best match.

Let me throw my .02 in on this. The Diablo is a great fishing platform that is very stable and is made to stand up and fish from. We have a great promotion going on where you will get $150 in pro bucks you can use to buy all the gear you need to rig it out as well as fishing gear if you want.
If you want to try one before you buy, we can do that. Stop by and visit with us and give it a try before you decide. I think you will like the Diablo.

Its funny that you say this because i stopped in there tonight and left feeling absalutly unpressured. i spoke with Aris and was very impressed with the fact that when i was talking to him about the few brands i was considering, a couple of witch mariner sails doesnt carry he never tried to stear me towards or away from any brand, he just shared his knowledge with me. before i left i had him holding a ride 115 for me that im going to pick up saturday
