And calm water. I had one. I was sorry to see it go. The wife said I cannot fish off of two kayaks at the same time. Bye bye x-factor. :(

why do you need to stand up to pee? just stick it over the side and pee. :biggrinjester:

not worth 2400 bucks! though for the width the PA has its pretty fast. I demoed one and really enjoyed it. Kinda felt like if your going full speed, and turn sharply youll fall out :doh: i tried it, Dont lean! The thing has a ton of space on it . I seen a guy with a 5 hp motor on the back lol

I don't know why you guys are over-thinking it. I mean Standing???? Sheeeeesh.. http://www.kayaksportfishing.com/php...s/icon_lol.gif

I prefer not to pull out the long rod unless absolutely necessary, but I will say nines and tens definitely have an edge over the six and sevens most guys use. No need to stand, when I flop mine out it's practically already over the side, I just let her rip, and it goes the distance. The only thing I worry about is sharks, or seabass on a squid bite. Just ask Josh he's the master at picking em up with the long rod. I just find if I have to pull on it all day with multiple hookups, that big rod just wears out my back, so for the most part I keep mine stowed.

As to squatters... well.... sounds like someone should check out Malibu's Kayaks new Stealth technology...
