I bought the Big Fish 105 a year ago from ACK, and I can honestly say for the money, there isn't anything comparable. The kayak is super stable, easy to paddle, easy to launch, and tracks as good as any. Is this a fast kayak? No, but that isn't why we buy fishing kayaks. We buy them for the ability to customize and make it into the fishing rig we want. This kayak fits that bill perfectly. I have had ZERO issues with my kayak in the first year, and I have put a LOT of hours on the water. Have caught a lot of fish and have modified my kayak to fit my needs. Crate with 3 extra rod holders, Lorance Hook 5 on the pod with the battery inside and the transponder on the botom so it is one complete unit to remove during transportation. I can stand, sit, adjust the seat, all on the water. This is a great kayak, and the people at ACK were helpful for shipping, delivery, and questions.
