I was thinking about getting a fishing kayak because we bought a travel trailer which nixes towing the boat. If its within a few hundred miles of home, I make two trips, one with the trailer then I go back and get the boat. Not a big deal as we usually stay somewhere for a month or more. However, looking at taking much longer trips and figured a Kayak on top of the truck would work. Now, I am wondering if I would be better off with a pontoon boat or maybe I should get both and take whatever might work best along our route.

I will be staying out of croc and snake infested water, unless the fishing is really, really good.
