Flyfishing the salt by kayak

one other note. with the current sit-on-top kayaks, they are fairly
stable.
In my case, I was easily able to hang my legs over the side and change
my angle of fishing during various drifts with no trouble. I could
imagine a sit-in-kayak (SIK) might present more troubles in this
regard.
The majority of anglers fishing from kayaks around here use the SOTs
rather than SIKs
for this, and also the ease of ingress/egress for wading as well.
I have an OK Aegean tandem and I find it is very unstable with just one
person aboard and I am a big guy. Only time I rolled it was in a local lake
fishing for bass and trout by myself. Fish Mission Bay, SD with no problem
with the wife aboard. Even nicer, she does not fish, so paddles while I do.
I would spring for a single for solo fishing.
