Perception Pescador 12: Sit-On-Top Fishing Kayak for Maximum Comfort and Mobility

Rachel Fryer: I don’t know why this review is asking me to mention thickness and warmth of the kayak but I guess they’re OK. I mean the kayak is pretty thick and I stayed pretty warm since I was kayaking in the summer so....
For real though, I really love this kayak.

Joan: My Husband picked them out. They fit in the back of our full size pick up, with some hanging out the back. We have been taking them out on a small lake nearby. They seem very stable. They glide through the water effortlessly. I
like the foot rests to push on while I paddle. Excellent dry storage area. We store our fishing poles in there while
transporting to the lake. The rails on the sides are great for paddle holders and such. They have been fun sorry to
see the warm weather leave but will be fun next year too and many others.

Macj: I haven’t had this in the water yet because the weather turned before it arrived. I purchased this “used as new” from Amazon and it arrived in the packaging I would expect a new one to come in, there are no areas on it I can see that have any damage or blemishes so I’m glad I took the chance and saved over $80 on it. I plan on mostly using it to fish the Bitterroot river and am anxious to see if I will be able to paddle upstream in it once the flow drops from spring highs. It is big enough to carry my fishing gear easily and looks big enough to be able to fish comfortably.

Robyn Renae Wells: We took our kayaks out for the first time today... We loved them!!! Easy to carry, they don't get full of water, and they glide very easily... My husband and I are in our late 50's and had never kayaked before... we had no issues! These are really nice kayaks..and the colors are so vibrant and beautiful ( We ordered cotton candy) I got a 10Ft. and my husband bought a 12ft. We haul them in the back of our truck. They are well balanced and easy to get in and out of and the seat is comfy. I love the cup holder and the storage. Just a super nice all around kayak.

Shannon ValdezShannon Valdez: I absolutely love the entire kayak. The only reason it has 4 stars, is for not being able to grip it from the side for easy handling. It was difficult for loading and un loading purposes. You don’t have a good grip as for the side goes.

As for speed, I’m a strong arm paddlers already. So Speed was just fine for a sit up top. I love how much room you have to carry on a lot for over night trips. Which I just recently went on a 9 hour kayak trip and down some class 1-2 white water just fine. I have now been paddling for around 5 mths. Absolutely awesome! My 5 yr old sits perfect in the back and plenty of space! A bonus!! It’s summer here now, and I prefer from my sit in at the moment. Because it’s hot out and sit on top is what you want for fun rapidity white water and to be able to swim off of and back in. Self rescue, no sinking. And you can still turn easily.

I found it easy to scoot all the way towards the front of the kayak to get into the front department. Which has easy latches to quickly pop open and close vs. the rubber ones that you have to seal back on around.

Another win, is I like having my legs in the water. So being able to sit on the side...
