Awesome yak!!!!!!!

Best yak I've ever paddled. I did lots of research prior to my purchase, and i finally decided on the Ocean Kayak Trident 15 Angler. I am really happy with the performance, especially in rougher water.

The Best Kayak I have ever paddled

I am relatively new at Kayaking but not fishing, now add Kayaking and fishing together and that makes for an interesting but wonderful combo.

My first kayak was a Cobra Explorer I loved it at the time but I found it to be a little easy to tip, though I never did, I found myself almost going in 2 times on my first trip out. Soon after that I borrowed a buddies Tarpon 140, and also found this to be a little wet in the seat and also tippy. A friend of mine, which I'm sure many of you may have heard of, Jim Sammons, was telling me to get an Ocean Kayak. Here is a guy who has been doing this for many years, knows what he is talking about, and helped design these Kayaks, so I listened. In fact I bought one of his Ocean Kayak Prowler 15 Kayaks. Not much different from the trident.

I love this Kayak, it paddles fast, straight(no rudder), and when paddling out through the surf it cuts through the breakers. When Landing from the surf, as long as you are doing what you should be, the Kayak does what it is suppose to do.

I have heard a lot of people moving to the peddle style kayaks, and that's fine, but I'd rather have that storage space than have peddles in my way. I love my Prowler 15 and highly recommend the 15 or 13 to others.

Nice boat

It's my first kayak so I cannot compare it to anything else. I've been fishing Caribbean using it for more than a year now. It is almost always windy here and 10-15 knots trade winds and pretty choppy sea are usual conditions. I didn't buy it with rudder pre-installed so I added it later when I started to feel the need for it. After that it became even more comfortable.

The only things I don't like about that kayak are front hatch and rod-pod lids. They have lost their original shapes pretty quickly thanks to tropical heat/sun and water from wave splashes started to get inside the hull. Not much though. I heard that newer rod-pods come with much better lid and it can also be installed on older kayak so the only unsolved problem is front lid.

It is very good kayak for novice like myself and I'd buy it again.

Great Yak

I've fished this boat for 2 seasons now. and love it. Its only down side is its weight and the reach for some features as I'm 5'7" I'd have given it a 5 if it had come with the new Rod Pod modular hatch lid which comes on the new boats. I've added it to mine and it really improves the fishability in my opinion.

great fishing sot

bought the trident 15 may 2009 and use it on a lake and in costal waters.the boat handels my 300 lb nicely ,there is lots of space for any fishing gear you will need and its very easy to rig.the long water line (for this kind of boat)helps to maintain a streight line, turning is easy enough if you have a radder system.the boat is very stable in the water,in the surf the trident 15 climebs over waves ruther then punchin through them and all in all, its a dry ride.no doubt one of the best fishing sot kayaks in the market,the only possible competition is probably offered by the willdernes tarpon 160.
