Joining all the kayakers, what does the OB think of this kayak?

I will be mostly using this for exercise, and fishing on Lake Allatoona in Ga, and trips down the toccoa for some fly-fishing. It got pretty good reviews. I don't know much about kayaks, but seeing as how I live on the lake (sort of, more like I have easy access)I figured this would be an opportune time to do some paddling and fishing. So I pulled the trigger, should arrive Thursday at my door.
Any recs on after market stuff I should rig it with?
I also have a Chevy Silverado, and the bed with the tailgate down is roughly 7'. Any good recs on a way to transport this 12' kayak, or you think that 7' is sufficient with some tie downs?

Just don't be a bitch and put stickers all over it, post it on TD and ask what people think. I'll rip you a new one. Just slime that bad boy up and post a few of your catch.

I'm not a sticker type of person really, although I do have 3 stickers on the back of my truck.
A small one of a fly (as in flyfishing), a yallowstone park one, and a Unicoi outfitters one. It works.

It should be easy to transport with a couple of tie downs. If it does stick out too much a bed extender will fix that.

Just get some pressure built up and go. You're going to get a little wet but it's all good.
Or kneel and piss in the scupper.

I can stand and pee in mine, just the same as pissing from my boat.
Pirogue I used to just bank it and get out and pee.

Got the same kayak last week at academy. I recommend it, especially for the price. Mine was only $500 at academy, but they only had red or olive, and it didn't include an anchor kit. You'll be fine strapping it down.

I'm going to end up buying one myself soon. I'm thinking I want a sit in type instead of on top because it just seems like it would be more stable. Is this true? What are the advantages of either? Also, is there a reason I should get a 12' yak instead of a 10'? I'll be using it exclusively for small lakes/ponds bass fishing. Seems like a 10' would suit my needs pretty well and be easy to transport and load in and out of the truck.
Is there a good informative kayak thread burried on here somewhere? Any helpful links for people just starting out with questions? Thanks

look in the stickied thread.
on top is better for fishing. 12 will paddle better in the water. 10 would only be better in transporting IMO
