One of the top recurring questions that I get is “What is the best fishing kayak under….[Insert price HERE]”, so I decided to do this video to talk about the best kayak under $500 that is still a quality kayak that will not fail on you, will retain resale value, will cover a wide range of anglers and won’t make you hate kayak fishing because you are miserable in the boat. Here is my answer to this very popular question.

My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. https://www.youtube.com/post/Ugkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!
I just grabbed one used, and want to replace the cap in the rear end of the kayak, but I am not sure what it is called. I literally have the exact same boat that is demo'd in your video!
Lifetime tamarack
Under $300 “disposable,” “unsafe,” . . .. pure hogwash.
You put one on there for just over $500 and your sport Fisher my lifetime is easily the most bulletproof stable fishing kayak for $600 or less, and for DIY guys that sun dolphin SS is also an awesome boat for under $500, 👍👍👍👊👊
Yep, they are decent boats.. Thanks for the straight out presentation.
Great video thanks! I'm glad a bigger guy makes a video, we don't all weigh 160 lbs lol. Thanks!!!!
Just not stable enough
My biggest problem with fishing in my kayak is holding the rod and peddeling, i like tot trawl my rapalla along the shore line but i keep hitting my fishingrod when i peddle.. is there a perfect setting? Or front rodholder? Kind regards, hope my english makes sense
Is this The same boat as the Magellan origin 10?
I don't think the entry level segment gets talked about enough. The more anglers we get into kayaks the better!
I was torn between the Access 11.5 and the Pescador 10 – I think I'll go for the Pescador, that front storage well is just too important.
Well, it's not under $500 anymore, but the Tamarack angler is $278, and it's better than the Pescador. Take that extra money and buy some more fishing gear.
Anybody have experience with lifetime Yukon 116
I think if you are a person like me, a fly fisherman that needs deck space, the ascend 10t is the right kayak for you. It has a deck mat, a front tank well, a back tank well, and a storage hatch that keeps your phone dry. I have been looking for the perfect kayak for the price for a long time, and this is it. For only 450 dollars, you get a kayak with a storage hatch, front and rear tank wells, and Eva deck padding. Finally if you are a larger angler, I get it. You need a kayak that is stable and with a lot of capacity. I wrote this overview myself and in no way told to do this by ascend kayaks. Please check this kayak out. Oh and did I mention that it is not a sit inside but a sit on top with an elevated seat.
Pelican premium icon 100x I got one for 400 and it looks a lot better than this one and it has an elevated seat
Would this be a good starter kayak for my 7 year old?
under 500 bucks? lol ok link please!
Everything said in this video is also in the lifetime tamarack 10ft kayak
Thank you so much. Awesome info 👍
Could I put a fish finder on this?
Here's what I think – that was a helluva review and that's a helluva hat!! Thanks Chad!!
An you stand with the 12 ft.
Great video Chad. Really straight to the point and well scripted and shot!
I can only find it for 559 dollars
I'm gonna get this 400 dollar 2.7 meter kayak just for my squid fishing. Just so I paddle hundred meters off the beach to have some fun!
Any kayaks out there under 1000 dollars that I can stand up in to fish
Chad, is the kayak ok for rivers with river Rock areas to drag over? Smallmouth bass fishing?
Nice to see an opinion from a bigger dude.
Good job !
I have the tamarac pro angler 100 as my first boat and loved it
How is it the beat when u cant stand in it
Well not below $500 Costco is selling the emotion Stealth Pro angler for $539
