Keep it simple - a paddle - cheap fishfinder - net and a pole

you can always upgrade if you find you need it.
I have been looking for a OK Prowler or Trident to test out to see how stable it is. I am also 6'4 and heard that the hobie outback can be a bit small but peddle instead of paddle has to be a huge plus. I am just looking for something (as you said) simple to try in the bay and rivers. Thanks for all the input though.. fish it up!!
