Should I get a 10 foot or a 12 foot kayak?

I weigh 235 and I am 6’3″. I can’t fit in most kayaks I will use it on some slow floats in Missouri rivers. I will also use it for fishing. What are the pros and cons for both 10 foot and 12 foot kayaks. I have looked at 10 foot Ascend kayaks from Bass Pro Shop and 12 foot Dagger Axis from REI (It is a bit too pricey, but I love the cockpit). I wish I could find a new or used Dagger for cheaper.

What do you think about heritage redfish 12 angler kayaks?

I live in Sarasota Fl and I’m a beginner to kayaking. I have done some research and I think I like the redfish. I’m looking to take it in rivers and on calm days the gulf and bays to do some fishing. I would like to hear from anyone who has an opinion on the redfish that is similar to what I want to do.

Sit in Kayak vs. Sit on Top kayak?

Looking for a Kayak but am not sure which model to go with.

New to Kayaking and looking for a tandem kayak to be used on lakes / rivers and possible inter coastal, recreational use and fishing
Not sure which way to go. Solo won’t work. Need either a Tandem Kayak or go with Canoe (not a huge fan of canoes)

Need multipurpose for the family but preferably fishing when possible. Can go with recreational model but outfit it if possible – not just add a rod holder. Want it to still look cool.

Will use on lakes – small river and possible inter coastal in South Carolina.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Budget conscious so please no .. Hobie responses. I would love to get one if I could. I can’t.

Has anyone hear of Crescent Kayaks? If so, am looking for real reviews.
Thank you
