Hi there all you clever people. I am new to this so PLEASE be patient with me. I have been looking into buying a kayak myself. Mainly for fishing and mainly for fishing on the other side of the surf. Do any of you people know the STEALTH or TOMSKI or ERICS kayaks that are made in South Africa. I'd like to hear your comments on them. Especially with regards to putting your rods inside the kayak before going through the surf and not loosing anything.

We have a few Sth Africans up here that use both the Stealth and Eric's brands. Both are extremely good offshore kayaks. You should send Fishmatics a PM, as he has designed a kayak specifically for offshore and more importantly Australian conditions. I was fishing with him today and he said that the first 2 prototypes should be ready this week, so im sure we'll see some photo's soon. These yaks should be arriving around October.

BTW, Fishmatics(Andrew) has the Stealth.
