FishAll50 surprised me with an email yesterday (he took a few stills at the demo and was nice enough to share). Thanks you sir. UPDATE: I personally marked this demo kayak out of stock this afternoon, and that means that I will definitely have it at the GTG for anyone to test paddle this Saturday.See everyone out there.

I love mine. The 89 lbs. is hard on the back though. I have fished mine almost everyday since purchase. I have never been happier while fishing from a kayak. I did install handles on either side of the seat. They are a must. A long paddle is best as well.

A long paddle is best as well. A 240 paddle is highly recommended. Definitely.

When you talk about the rocker and freeboard , what part of the kayak are you referring to?

When one hears rocker and freeboard, there is no way you can't think of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Thank you.

Hi Mateo! I bought the Ascend FS128T yesterday in Garland at BPS. What a nice bunch of sales people (very helpful). Would like to see your pics of the handle install. (if possible) Think I will reseal all the hatches. Also, going to cap the screws with protectors as you could rip something pulling it out from the storage area.
