Found a guy on craigslist selling a Chupacabra fully loaded with accessories for $1k.

Worth it?

do you have a Diablo?

I'm worried about their tracking. I've heard bad things. Sometimes I like to paddle a ways. If I only fished small ponds and whatnot, I'd jump all of this.

I don't own one but from what I've read they are a great kayak for the marsh but if you plan on having it as your only yak it may limit the distance of your trips and wind will be more of an issue with such a large yak.

That being said if I could buy an extra kayak just for sight fishing or fly fishing on short trips this would be the one.

I hear natives are nice for trying to find ducks that people think they shot...

A buddy of mine won one in a BCKFC tourney. He sold it not long later, after trying to paddle to the sulphur mine at PAC. It's just not a long distance machine. Great for small waters and close trips. It's very wide and stable, if you need to stand up too.
