Sit-On-Top Fishing Kayaks: (View Pictures of Kayak Fishing )
These boats do not have cockpits. Instead, individuals sit on top of the kayak. Sit-on-tops are great boats for fishing! They have what are known as scupper holes, which allow water to drain from the kayak compartment. This makes a Sit-On-Top kayak perfect for fishing in the ocean and launching through the surf. It is also easy to get back on if you decide to go for a swim, or if the boat tips over.

These are stable and versatile boats. They offer excellent protection from the elements. The cockpit has lots of room for both the paddler and his gear. In bad conditions they're usually used with a skirt. A skirt is a covering that goes around you and the opening in the kayak and prevents water from entering the cockpit. A Sit-Inside kayak is the perfect choice if you plan on paddling in fresh water, on lakes, or on ponds.
