What Vibe kayaks are best for rivers and lakes, and what kayaks are best for oceans?
While you can take any of Vibe’s kayaks on the ocean, certain fishing kayak models are better suited for larger bodies of water, or for an ocean’s surf and currents, or for especially bad weather where stability is of prime importance.
Larger and wider kayaks, like the Shearwater 125, the Sea Ghost 130, Yellowfin 130T and Yellowfin 120 deliver excellent stability and speed for either offshore ocean kayak fishing, or fishing and paddling on large lakes and larger rivers.
Smaller and more streamlined fishing kayaks like the Sea Ghost 110 and Yellowfin 100 are also fast and stable, but since they are smaller, they are especially suited for smaller rivers, ponds, and lakes, or for inshore saltwater bays and channels.
