Great video! I've got an Ultimate 12 right now but am looking at upgrading to either a U12-Propel or Mariner Propel. Looks like you've used both, which do you prefer for fishing?

@wesgardner23 - Thanks! I went with the Mariner mainly because of its ability to handle rough water better, being a self-draining kayak. The Ultimate, being an open design allows easier stow and access of gear. It's also lighter than the Mariner is weight is a concern. If you have the opportunity I'd demo them both to see which one you like better, either can be outfitted as a fishing machine.
