I'm wanting to demo a wilderness systems tarpon 120 or ride 135 somewhere close to College Station. Any of y'all have any ideas of a good place that does this? Also, besides weight and length, what are the differences between these two kayaks?

I'm trying to buy a kayak as well and cannot find anywhere nearby that does demos. Have you found anything out?

I have a Ride 115 you can demo. PM me and maybe we can meet at Lake Bryan. Maybe others in the area with a kayak can meet too to help out.

Try ACK in Austin or Houston, you're not too far.

It's funny this post finally got some attention. I drove down to Austin yesterday and bought a ride 135 at ACK. I went in blind on it. I am very happy with it so far. The guys there were awesome and did a great job rigging it for me. I definitely recommend them.

I bought one for my first kayak. It's a great kayak for the money. It definitely got me hooked on kayak fishing. Are you a student at A&M?
