Amazing kayak... incredibly stable and fishable while standing.
I have two Tamaracks (which are fantastic, but I wanted something that I could stand on for fly fishing.
I couldn’t be more impressed with the stability and tracking... the seat is extremely comfortable.
This boat.... once moving is a joy to paddle... though it’s a little sluggish off the line in comparison to the Tamarack.
My only complaint is that it’s a bit heavy, and hard to load in the truck... due to the added weight. The wheel in the keel is a great idea for transporting.
Another amazing product and Value from lifetime.
Great kayak, incredible value. Tracks extremely straight but the best feature is how stable they are. You can really move around on the kayak getting things out of the front or back.standing and fly fishing is very comfortable and stable. Lots of storage room fore and aft. About the only things that you would find in a kayak about twice the price is they are a little heavier at 75 pounds and not as fast. But I didn’t care about speed and the extra 9 pounds or so is no big deal.

Best choice I could make, very pleased with my purchase. The Yukon Angler started my kayak journey and since have forgotten my jon boat. Price was important but I certainly didn’t expect the quality. I figured this was only a starter kayak but after many river trips and lake paddling adventures I can proudly boast about it. Shorty after getting it I went on to make a scupper cart, scupper anchor poles, modified milk crate and more. The scuppers so far have been taking a beating from my cart and anchors and so far seem unaffected. I use mostly use a Toyota Sequoia and it just sticks out the back a few feet. Like how light it is and how I’m able to manage it in and out. I’m 180 lbs and able to stand and fish, stand while site fishing down stream, also getting up to stretch during a long day. Certainly fishes just as well as any fancy comparable kayak and spent all the leftover money on more important stuff, new rods, reels and tackle.

This Kayak has been Incredible . i found it at a store in the Midwest and was able to double up on its sale price with an online promotion . Tracks very well with the built in wheel skeg similar to the feel free Kayaks . wheel is also nice for transport. weight is around 80# . Very Stable , can stand up and fish in it . overall just seems well built and one of the best Lifetime Brand kayaks i have seen. Definitely an upgrade from the Tamarack, Teton, & Triton in my opinion. If you have seen the Emotion Stealth angler pro this is basically the same kayak under the Lifetime Brand. 2 flush rod holders. Huge tank well in the back for milk crate or anything you want to put . the front hatch goes all the way back under the kayak. can fit spare rods and lots of gear in there. Very Impressive kayak from Lifetime . Thinking about buying a 2nd one . just wish they came in other colors
