Pros and cons of both: Wilderness Ride 115 Angler Native Redfish 12
I've never paddled or fished either so all input will help. Thanks

I can only give insight to a Ride 135. Stable, tracks okay, wet when in moderate waves, good layout, medium speed. Haven't paddled the 115 or any Native.

Jim I have a Redfish 14 you can swing by and get to test if you want. I think the redfish 12 is one of the best deals on the market for a legit fishing kayak. One of my best friends has a new one and it performs very well. Having said that, I have heard nothing but great things about the RIDE. I don't think you can make a bad choice in this. I know there are cons to both but I tend to go easy on all brands, it doesn't take much to please me if I have a good seat.
Good luck, wait you getting rid of the malibu?

Thanks for the feedback from both of you. I will not get rid of my Malibu, in fact I'm thinking about getting another. The other boat questions are future planning things and time permitting maybe I'll take you up on that test ride. Have a Happy New Year, Jim

I love my ride 135. I have not paddle the 115. Like Trey said the ride is a little wet in moderate waters. Only con I really have.
