The Jackson Coosa does exactly what it is designed for...very, very well. Simply put, if you fish rivers from a kayak, this one should be on your list if it isn't in your quiver already. There are very few watercraft out there that can go from comfortable as a lawn chair on flat easy flows to quick enough to eddy turn in class III and ferry back upstream to help another paddler get "unstuck", while having a clean enough deck to strip fly line onto. If I every sell it, it will be to replace it with a newer one. The one thing I would change is the hatch covers. With drier storage, it would be a 10.
