I'm movin to cong in a few weeks and looking for somethin to shoot about on the corrib with initially, though may bring to salt water in future, but to start, reckon these would sink in minutes if brushed off by a single hook? =o)

i think you mean how unreliable do ya think these things are
start saving and get a propper kayak, you would be nuts to go on one of them

that's what I figured, just spent over a grand fixing my motor, so bit strapped at the mo
I'm thinkin more of the time for kayaking in as apposed to a fishin kayak, though I do intend on tryin some fishin from it....
Best start muggin old people I guess...

Yeah, I figured that they'd be fairly kack, but was just double checkin with people, as lidl occasionally has stuff that doesn;t break and/or kill you when you use it...

Hi,
Me dad bought one. Used it once. We went and bought 2 sot after that werent inflateable. Just normal sot. The compartments the air goes into doesent inflate in some places. It is very hard to kayak in. I was using it on a beach and was puffed out after kayaking 100 metres (its not me

)
