Hess 85

Hello there, I too am new to the fishing kayak world. I also live in Canada and struggle with finding retailers that have these yaks to demo. I have wanted a fishing kayak for about 5 years on and off. I started out wanting a wilderness systems ride 115 or cuda 12. I finally made the purchase a couple of months ago and pulled the trigger on a topwater 120. I love the design;endless upgrades. I made a second seat on the back so I can take my daughter out with me. I haven’t had it in the water yet( as there is still ice on some parts) but can’t wait for the day I do. It it really is a difficult decision to make. I ended up buying mine online and driving 4 hours each way to pick it up. That day also had 90 km/h wind gusts and snow. Best of luck with your purchase eh!
