This kayak is for the serious angler who fishes tournaments, guides, or spends 100 plus days a year on the water. It fits bigger anglers who need the 600 pound capacity and the 350 pound seat rating. If you run a full electronics setup, a livewell, and eight rods, the PA 14 has a place for all of it.
