PaddlePOC's Fishing Kayak Rental puts anglers into a stable, easy-to-maneuver sit-on-top kayak that’s optimized for beginners and built to chase that brag-worthy redfish. The craft offers pedal power, molded comfort features and large storage so you can spend the day on the water rather than wrestling gear.

THE GEAR

One-person sit-on-top with pedal power

These mono-hull fishing kayaks combine pedal propulsion with molded footrests, carry handles and a large tank well secured by bungees—designed for stability, comfort and easy transport to and from the shore.

THE TARGET

Designed to chase redfish

The kayak’s stability and storage platform make it well suited for anglers pursuing trophy redfish from a nimble, solo craft.

THE SAFETY

Life jackets included; swim competency required

Life jackets are provided for all ages, but every participant must know how to swim—safety provisions are built into the rental so you can focus on fishing.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

You pick up your single-seat, pedal-driven kayak and handle it to the shore with built-in carry handles, clip down gear in the bungeed tank well, don the provided life jacket and push off. The pedal system and molded footrests let you move and fish with both hands free; the mono-hull and wide platform keep the boat steady as you cast for redfish.
