FeelFree Lure kayaks. Anybody own one?

I had a tarpon 120 when I lived on the coast and fished 4-5 days a week. Loved the kayak but my only real complaint was that the seat wasn't comfortable for all day fishing, and I couldn't stand up in it. Money got right and had to sell it. I currently have a cheap sit inside that I've made due with for long enough, and with a bonus coming next month it's time for an upgrade.
This one has really good reviews and the seat looks amazing. Also wide enough to stand up in, and the wheel in the keel is a nice feature for moving the kayak from car to water. Wanted to see if anyone had any first hand knowledge on them though

Looks comfortable. Never heard of the brand before. If you fish that often, I would spring for the Hobie. Pedal>paddle

Those look cool.

that seat looks nice
kinda heavy though, which defeats the purpose of a kayak IMO

It is on the heavy side, but that will only come into play when loading and unloading. Transport should be easy with the wheel. I've looked at the hobies but they're a little more than I want to spend. I can get this one for just over 1k shipping included

check out a WS Ride 115. Same basic specs with a more proven design and a few hundred cheaper I think too.

It looks like they run about $1150.
Newer brand, nice kayaks though.
I would either get the WS Ride 115 as stated, for about $950, or if you want to throw in an extra $150 or so on top of the Lure price, check out the Native Slayers.
With your budget you have many options.

Yes/no. I have a Slayer 14.5 that comes with an optional wheel, I'm about to take it off. It's great for moving around on concrete or hard packed surfaces but in sand or grass or mud it hangs up, just letting the hull drag would be easier. Since I load it front-first in my truck, once the front is in the truck the rear has a tendency to roll out from under it.

There's a 12' Slayer in Broussard on craigslist that they're asking $900 for.
There's been some pretty good deals lately. 2 weeks ago there was a 12' Slayer for $600, and a KC12 for $600. I almost bought them both to buy/resell for profit.

Wow! That's a damn good deal. If I didn't already have 2 kayaks!

I really like the wheel in the keel. Good idea and very comfortable looking Kayak all around
