Prowler Big Game Angler

This Ocean Kayak model boasts a huge bungee-cord-covered molded rear well designed for a gear-stowing milk crate or bait bucket. There’s an inset for your tackle box just forward of the well and flush-mounted rod holders on either side. Forward of the paddler is a storage tray that holds a small Plano tackle box (included) and drinks, and forward of that is a deck area where you can install a bracket for rod holders or a GPS. A large, watertight compartment is built into the bow deck. The boat is nimble enough to use in rivers, but where it really shines is in rough, open water. (800-441-5713; llbean.com)
