Best price for all the bases covered.
Stable for this 230 lb guy ! Should last, well made.Very pleased. 2 May 19 This is awsome. Great for fishing and getting in those nooks and crannies other boats cant. Now I take it to the lake any chance I get.
Good 28 Apr 19 For a cheap ($250) kayak its great did break the little plastic piece that the seat straps hold on the rivet area on second use just about to call costumer service about it. Nice and stable for a 511 243 pound guy Great for price 17 Apr 19 Seems to be a well made kayak. Did great on its maiden voyage on a local lake. Love all the extras on it. Does the job.
Incredible value. 11 Apr 19 Very surprised by how good this kayak is for the money! Tested it out today on a all day trip. Exactly what I needed for what I do. Fish and kayak down the river.
You wont be disappointed, its by far the best value. If you want a better kayak youll be spending 6-8+ and it will only be heavier (thicker plastic, better storage options, accessories, etc). 7 Apr 19 Love it! Only wish the kayak had inserts for the bins. Love my Tamarack fishing kayak!
29 Mar 19 This is a great fishing kayak if you are a weekend angler and not going to do tournaments. Its sturdy and stable. It has two downfall to me, one being the the seat is extremely uncomfortable if youre in the kayak fir any length of time (I replaced in with a stadium seat and its great now. And the second, and pretty major issue for anglers) is that the hatch cover right in front of your legs, is now garbage. Its now rounded, so you cant add Velcro and attach your fishing too tray to it, and it snaps on instead of screwing on.
So water gets in the hull easier now. With all that being said, I own two Tamaracks. One for fishing with the flat top hatch cover, with my fishing tool box velcroed to it, and another one that I let my clients and friends use if they are coming with me. Cadiyack 29 Mar 19 I like it so far. Im waiting for the weather to warm up Great buy 18 Mar 19 Great kayak for the price Good bye 14 Mar 19 These kayaks are so stable and strong.
Heavier than I imagined and I am very pleased with my purchase of two. I already have a couple sit in kayaks and found these sit on kayaks much better and stable especially for a novice. Looking forward to fishing off these. FISHING ADDICTS YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! 28 Feb 19 I have been fishing for many years - specially surf fishing.
Kayak fishing is a whole new level of fishing - however Kayaks are so expensive. This was well within the budget for an entry level kayak with the features and comfort of a much higher priced Kayak! Also, you can really customize it to fit your individual needs (fishing or recreational). A total joy and a great buy! Do suggest a few upgrades such as an anchor trolley and a seat.
Paddle is good! Lifetime Family 24 Feb 19 We now own 4 Lifetime kayaks (4th one is on its way) my wife and I both have the Tamarack 100 Angler and could not be happier. It is extremely stable, feature packed, comfortable, and paddles extremely well. It is perfect for a simple day on the water or a day of fishing. I have zero complaints about the kayak, the paddle it comes with however is a little short for beginners who are new to paddling but what would make it exceptional would be drip stoppers.
Other than that I highly recommend there is a reason my wife and I plus our daughters all paddle lifetime kayaks. 1st kayak 24 Feb 19 Delivered in tact and what I expected Now for the rain to stop Great kayak 6 Feb 19 Excellent kayak for beginners or just as a fishing kayak. Can not beat the price! Identical kayak at local retailers is 450+ dollars Kayak review with video 6 Feb 19 I love this Kayak and it was definitley the best buy for the price. It tracks straight in the water and has plenty of leg room considering im 6-3 tall.
I have a video of me catching bass on it here.https://www.youtube.com/watch? V=qfhnT8MYaXU Cheap is sometimes better. 2 Feb 19 Needed a lighter, cheaper kayak to use as goto for tidal creek fishing near my beach house. Saw lots of good reviews of angler on Yourtube. Found Walmart was cheapest by far and found the store pickup very convenient.
So anxious to try it I put in in 55 degree water yesterday and ran a 30 minute test. It yielded a five star result. I am 75, 62, and 225 with some balance issues. As stable as my $1000 Ride and same weight as my sit inside Pungo 120. It carried me quite well, did not feel tippy at all, was reasonably dry, and was quite fishable.
I provide a house near the beach for the entire family and have lots of kayaks for communal usage including multiple $1000 yaks I bought used. This one will be used by me the most because of its weight and stability. I wouldnt choose this boat if you want to paddle several miles and carry a ton of stuff because it is by no means a racer and yaws quite a bit when paddling. Because of its low profile, it does not respond to the wind and acted no differently whether upwind, downwind, or abeam. I was so impressed that I purchased the cheaper version(only one hatch and no rodholder) afterwards with a coupon and got it even cheaper.
For serious stuff in the keys or long distance paddling in the gulf, Ill still use the Ride or the Pungo, but for 90 percent of the time Ill be floating along on my WallMart special. Awesome Kayak 31 Jan 19 This review is for the kayak itself, not the questionable service tied to it. The kayak is well worth the price. Bought mine last year and spent the summer fishing with it. So many positives I can give for this kayak.
I LOVE mine , so much so that Im looking to get another. Now with that said, Ive to agree with many others in that one needs to thoroughly look over their kayak upon arrival. I looked mine over , but i didnt look extensively. Once i picked it up and got it home, I found a large gash in an area of it. I considered bringing it back for a return/exchange , however it was in an area that wouldnt be getting any rough contact, so I opted to just keep it and overlook the damage.
After all , these things are going to get scratches during use. Theyre plastic!! Nonetheless, associates need to be more mindful and careful when shipping these. Tamarack should box these kayaks or wrap them in an insulative material to prevent such damage from occurring. If i could have gotten an instant return/exchange , Id have done so, but as it was, I couldnt afford to wait another 2 weeks and miss out on the summer season.
Out on the water in no time!! 30 Jan 19 Bought the Tamarack from WalMart for a great price. Shipped at no charge to my home and arrived in great shape. First outing was to pick up 30+ duck decoys stranded by excess rains in the area. The kayak was very stable and easy to paddle in all directions to pick up the decoys.
Light enough to handle alone (at age 63) and easy to get into and out of the water. A great value. Im even thinking about taking up fishing !! Great Kayak 20 Jan 19 Ordered this kayak a week ago. After reading some reviews about scratches and dents, I was a little worried, however it came in perfect condition with not even a scratch for just being wrapped in some plastic.
Everything was included and nothing was missing. Cant wait to get out on the water in the spring 10 Jan 19 Like it! We will try it next summer but looks great so far 1 Jan 19 Took the kayak to the lake and had a great time with it . Thinking of getting another one. Great product & customer service!
25 Dec 18 Absolutely in love with this kayak! It arrived with a broken tow handles which was taken care of in minutes by Lifetimes awesome customer service. Thank you! 20 Dec 18 Has a high weight capacity. Built sturdy and very stable on the water!
Replacement of broken and missing parts 19 Dec 18 I bought three of these this summer and have mot had a chance to use them yet but am hanging them up in a hunting lodge and noticed missing and damaged parts at the bow of the kayak. I emailed lifetime and they immediatey shipped the parts at no expense to me. I was very impressed with the customer service and just sent them a picture if the broken and kissing parts and the next thing I knew I recieved an email with order and then then another with shipping confirmation. Great company. Would not hesitate to call ir our hase from them again!!
Cant wait to use them this summer Yep, its a keeper 16 Dec 18 So far, Ive been very happy with this kayak. I dont have any previous experience or history to compare to any other kayak types, but Im happy with it. Have had it on the water twice now and went fishing the second time and caught a nice trout. Great Kayak 10 Dec 18 Bought this Kayak for my Son. He will enjoy it for fishing, on our local lakes.
But after opening it up; I found that the adjustable rod holder was missing. I emailed Lifetime about the missing rod holder. That day they had a rod holder in the mail. Great customer service Unbeatable Price at Times 10 Dec 18 On sale the price was impossible to beat. This is the type of kayak I have been looking at for over a year.
Due to it being winter its almost impossible to review. Visually its very nice, id say its fairly easy for a half decent in shape person to move, may be a tad heavy for a small frame woman. Mine had none of the blemishes these somtimes get in shipping. I had mine sent to the store where I could reject delivery if needed. Unwrapped on the spot, was pleased and took it home.
A very rugged kayak 8 Dec 18 This is an extremely rugged kayak. My son was using it in a small lake after some very heavy rain. He got too close to the spillway which had white water rushing over it and couldnt control the kayak to get clear of it so he jumped out. ( A nice feature of a flat bottom boat) Thank God he was safe but the kayak went over the spillway which is 25 ft tall and all concrete. The pressure of the water was intense not only because of the fall but the white water.
The only damage was a few deep scratches and I had to tighten the screw that held the adjustable back rest. It is heavier than my other kayaks, and takes more effort but it is worth it.After I had back surgery I had trouble getting in my sit in kayaks. This one is very quick and easy to get in and out of. Thank my son was in this kayak or he may have went over the spillway with the boat. First kayak 3 Dec 18 This is my first kayak and Im 67 years old.
Love fishing and this yak is a good fit for me! Purchased September 2018. It is light enough that I can pick the front of it up on the tailgate and into the back of my truck and slides right in. As light as it is I can handle this by myself.It feels real stable on the water. Ive been fresh and saltwater fishing in it but most of my fishing is in lakes.
I will say it doesnt track as well as my buddies 12 footer but after using it you figure out the best way to paddle it straight.I like the three rod holders, two flush and one on the gunnel. I like the hatch lids being hinged and secured with a bungee. The scupper holes work well but you need to buy plugs for them. I purchased a cart that utilizes the two scupper holes behind the seat and this makes transporting the yak a breeze. A couple of places I go are 200+ yards from the parking lot .
Overall I rate this 5 stars and when I got it Walmart had a sale and got it for $190. What a good deal! Also I found a kayak outfitter on youtube that did a test on the best of 5 yaks for under $500 and this Tamarack Angler was his choice and his shop did not sell them but he was going to after this test.For the money you cant beat it! Id buy it again. Tonya N.
1 Dec 18 I bought my son one for Christmas last year and he absolutely loves it. So this year I bought my 2 grandsons 1 each. Best bang for your buck 22 Nov 18 Best bang for your buck. Get a better paddle and silicon the screws and pop rivets and your all set with a good flat water fishing kayak. The grand kids love it also.
18 Nov 18 Excellent fishing kayak, comfortable, not too heavy, and a dlight on the water. Better than the one i had previously. Best of all, the price. Great first kayak 17 Nov 18 This is a great first kayak. If you are on the fence and wondering if this is a quality kayak, wonder no longer.
I can tell you that it is absolutely worth the price. Kayak fishing is now my new favorite thing to do. Fishing kayak 4 Nov 18 This is a great kayak for ocean fishing and an awesome price at walmart. Cant find it cheaper anywhere else. Only bummer is the carry handle was broken and didnt notice until we unwrapped it at home.
Too much of a pain in the butt to take back. Too heavy Best value out there! 4 Nov 18 This seems to be a great kayak! Lots of storage, strap cords and handles seem higher quality, paddle is nice. Mine came without the rod holder that was suppose to he included, one email is all it took to get one sent to me with tracking info.
Seems like a great company as well. Highly recommend. Great Fishing Vessle 31 Oct 18 This is one of, if not the best value in fishing kayaks on the market, especially at the Walmart price. This my third purchase of this model kayak we now have one for myself, my wife and most recently my brother. The hull design is extremely stable and Lifetime does an excellent job with the molding/manufacturing process.
I really like the new hatch design as opposed to the design on the first two I purchased. The new front T-handle and added D-ring behind the seat are great improvements also.I highly recommend this kayak. My wife and I have both used our kayaks extensively and have found them to be extremely durable. The material they are molded with is almost bullet-proof against rocks, trees and even concrete boat ramps. It does scratch on the surface and that may eventually need to be addressed but it will take an impact better than MUCH more expensive kayaks.The only downside is the paddle is somewhat flimsy and catches a good amount of water in the grooves while paddling but given the paddle is easily replaced it is not really an issue and is s good backup if my replacement paddle ever breaks.
Nice, lightweight, sturdy and tracks well 13 Oct 18 Im giving this a 4 for two reasons: 1. Yesterday was my first time out on it so I dont have a lot of history to go on and want to leave room to rate up or down as I use it more. I was on a calm lake with light wind. I have class 1-2 rapids nearby so Ill need to evaluate it on those and revise the rating later. This is a nice, lightweight, sturdy kayak for the money that tracks well in the water.
The fishing rod holder hole is too far away from the seat. The rod holder is nice, but must be removed (no tools required) prior to transporting or it will get broken. That means its also likely to go missing at some point. The 7 hatches are much less useful than they could be because anything you put in them will get lost inside the hull of the kayak and will be impossible to retrieve without pulling over to shore. Luckily this was easily solved with some 3.5 qt joint compound buckets I had around.
I cut the top off right above the first reinforcement ring and it fits into the hole perfectly (see photos) As others mentioned, you will need the anti-drip rings on the paddle or youll be soaked within a few minutes from water running down the paddle onto you. Outstanding!!!!! 2 Oct 18 I am 62 195 lbs and this kayak is perfect, everything is right were it should be. So easy and comfortable to fish in. Lightweight- you can take it anywhere, even the most remote hard to get into spots imaginable. Best part is this kayak can easily be modified with all the coolest upgrades.
Anchor trolly, fish finder, outriggers, you name it. Check out the awesome upgrade videos on Youtube. In less than a year l have taken my yak out well over 100 times and caught at least 300 Bass! Going to buy a fishing bow next and try my hand at slaying carp. 25 Sep 18 This is exactly what we wanted!
Its extremely comfortable, it tracks great and is the perfect beginner kayak! We took it out Sunday for first time and cannot wait to go again! Best money we spent in a long time!! Great for the price 18 Sep 18 Having a great time with this! Took away 1 star because the 2 waterproof hatches are not as shown.
Instead of twist and lock these push close and then are held by a bungee cord. Kayak 18 Sep 18 First time I kayak Ed ! Its fun and not very hard on body and I am 65! 17 Sep 18 The kayak is good quality , just damaged in shipping , had to return it and order another ! Bummer part got to lake and it had a hole so was not able to use it on our kayaking trip !
Hope this next one has better shipping experience Awesome Kayak! 17 Sep 18 This kayak is an incredible deal for the price. However, the customer service is second to none. I had a problem with my kayak and received help immediately. If you are thinking about buying one dont hesitate.
17 Sep 18 after sizing up the competition @ $400 and below i felt this was a obvious winner, and i wasnt disappointed the craft performed very well and really comfortable for a 185lb. Rider , i cant wait to start tricking out this baby out , you Will get your $$ worth if you choose tamarack 100 / Great fun new adventure 17 Sep 18 Solid frame and platform for fishing as these type kayak do not manuver real well lots of space and can be loaded and launched alone by old man with bad knees back and shoulder. Paddle is too short for wide platform so added extension in middle. Been in it every day sence it came in, love it. Just ordered another on for wife through Walmart.
Mine arrived before promise date and I returned optional seat and life vest no problem . Did add my hunting set on the ground seat for higher back test and aid getting in and out. Great value kayak 16 Sep 18 Very satisfied with this kayak. Very stable and easy to maneuver. Purchased one for myself and 1 for my older son.
My younger son, who is generally apprehensive about kyaking, was in it for 4 minutes and asked when we can order one for him and so...we did. Weve now had 3 fishing trips in the 2 weeks weve had them and couldnt be more happy with them. Great kayak 16 Sep 18 This kayak is great, I got one last Christmas as a gift and have taken it out to fish plenty of times. Unfortunately came with a huge indention on the right side but it might have been from the packaging, it doesnt take away from its performance except it makes it a little noisy when against the current. I received the older version which is great and has thick plastic material; however, I bought the newer version for my dad recently and realized just how weak the materia is.
The plastic is way thinner and it is not as reliable. Lifetime should use the same plastic as they did with their older versions for the best/tip performance! 14 Sep 18 Good fishing platform. Stable. Nice fishing features. I added a Garmin Striker 4 fish finder and it installed nicely, too.
The only issue is that the bottom of the boat is relatively flat (for stability) and consequently paddling the kayak is pretty slow and takes a bit to paddle it across the lake. But it is a fishing kayak, so gotta sacrifice a little. Otherwise Great, especially for the price! Perfect Kayak 9 Sep 18 The Kayak is great! I took it fishing and it felt very stable and I never felt like I was going to tip over when a wave rocked me.
The one thing that I didnt like are the drainage holes right by the butt but they can be easily fixed if you plug the holes with foam or something of the sort. This is a great kayak. Great customer service 9 Sep 18 This will be my 3rd Tamarak angler 10 Kayak. 1st one flew out of the back of my friends truck. It was gone by the time I got off the freeway and returned to get it.
Bought # 2 and had a problem but warranty was applied to it and now I am waiting to get # 3 delivered to my house so I can get out and paddle the 4-5 days a week that I Paddle ( 12 months a year- I live in So California and water is great) 7 Sep 18 A great deal! Arrived on time and is great shape. Looking forward to trying it out!! 7 Sep 18 Cant beat it for the price! Paddle is cheap but works well, needs splash guards (can be purchased separately).
Pretty stable - I can stand and paddle on calm water (Im 160lbs and have decent balance). Overall impressed for the cost. A capable kayak for leisure or fishing. 5 Sep 18 A capable kayak for leisure or fishing and with the paddle included offers great value. I purchased this in May and have been using it all year.
Im 5 11, 250 lbs and I can get in/out/and maneuver this kayak with no problems. Leg length is more than adequate. Oars are fine and are approx in the 210 - 220 cm range, a little small for me but they are free. Youll definitely want to invest in oar grips and drip rings so you dont get too wet because you will with these oars. This is a very stable kayak and is actually pretty good for fishing.
There are no baffles that separate your storage compartments, the hull is open from front to back so if you store something in the cubby hole and you have lifted the kayak while transporting, all your storage will shift, so heads-up on that. I added an oar holder and thats all I really needed. The 1 Con for me is the seat. My seat strap has a tendency to slip so that if I place pressure on the seat back while paddling, the seat leans further to the back and then it offers no support. So I have to stop and re-adjust the seat.
Im going to have velcro sewed on the strap so it wont slip. Other than that, I really love it. I was able to paddle to some sweet spots and catch some great fish. The pole holder is a plus. This was my starter kayak and Im glad to have purchased it.
2 Sep 18 very comfortable and stable if you tip over in thisyour trying to ! Awesome Service Quick Service 1 Sep 18 Replaced my kayak in 4 Days. Awesome service You get a lot of kayak for the price. 30 Aug 18 I have a very expensive kayak with peddle drive and love it. However, it is very heavy, large and I use a trailer to tow it.
So I needed a kayak that was lighter and smaller in order to take it with me whenever I go camping in my travel trailer. The Lifetime Tamarack 100 is not expensive, problably 50+lbs and can be transported on top or inside of my SUV. It is stable in the water and good for fishing. Great For The Money, But Know What Your Getting 25 Aug 18 This really is a great buy for the 220 dollar sale price. But there are a couple of things to know.
The included paddle is cheap, and mine was only 86 inches long making it virtually useless. A decent paddle is 125 bucks and up. The boat is a bit slow, and doesnt track great. Not especially desired for bigger water, paddling against a little current, or long distances. You are limited to 6 inch access holes for storage.
So a 10 liter dry bag will not fit. Nor will relatively small tackle boxes, or full sized spare paddles. However...the boat does have decent maneuverability with working space and cord front and back. It is light enough for one person to handle. And is fairly stable.
Great for floating rivers maybe up to Class 2. And for smaller ponds, reservoir, and creeks. P.S. You can actually stand on this kayak, but it is not made for it. OK for a quick leg stretch, or to take a leak...not for fishing though. Great Kayak 24 Aug 18 Great features for any water based recreation.
Lots of width for a very stable ride. We bought his Nice boat, Great service. 22 Aug 18 I bought a Tamarack Angler a few weeks ago on line. After seeing other brands, Im glad I did. The quality is excellent.
When I got it, the shipper had lost the certificate and rod holder. When I called Lifetime, Skyler in cust service thanked me and made sure I got both items. Great $$ for Kayak 22 Aug 18 I really like this kayak. I am not a pro, but it seems stable and easy to load. It might be a bit heavy, but still fun!
Exceptional Value 22 Aug 18 Bought this as my first kayak to see how it would work for fishing. Turns out its everything I had hoped for. Very stable and comfortable. Easy to haul around. Only 4 stars because 1st one delivered to the store was damaged.
Love the kayak! 21 Aug 18 I bought it 6 months ago and have used it on lakes and rivers, for fishing and swimming, and the kids and I love it. Very stable - the only kayak that weve never flipped over. Excellent customer service 20 Aug 18 Got one of these for Christmas used it once split bottom of kayak on Rock lifetime replaced kayak Best kayak for the price 16 Aug 18 The best kayak for the price Ive had it about 7 months and try to use it about 3 times a month and its great. I have never flipped it one time.
Ive used it a the coast and in lake and caught my personal best bass out of it. Great value for the price 13 Aug 18 Very stable and easy to maneuver Im really impressed 10 Aug 18 great kayak very sturdy and stable in water, im 6 and 185 lbs and had plenty of leg room, if you fish for a long time like i do you will need a pad for seat. My kayak did arrive damaged and try to contact customer service isnt easy, Perfect entry level kayak 8 Aug 18 This kayak is perfect for entry level kayak fishing. I have nothing bad to say about it. Happy so far and expect to continue enjoying my new Lifetime fishing kayak 7 Aug 18 I am still learning how to get into it (I am 67 years young and not as limber as I used to be).
I think I have it figured out now. Plans are to paddle about 1/2 hour to my fishing hole, catch the big ones and paddle a half hour back. Seems to be the perfect rig. Yes, I will have a line in the water with a crawler to & from my hot spot. Go For It!
7 Aug 18 Cant beat it for the money. Hubby loved it the first time he had it out on the water. Great for fishing 5 Aug 18 This is a very nice Kayak. It is light enough (52lbs) for me to load and unload by myself and has room for all the items I need to fish.It tracks very well too. Amazing kayak 4 Aug 18 This is my first kayak and today I took it out for 3.5 mile fishing trip, This kayak is extremely easy to paddle and extremely comfortable.
Im very happy with my purchase, looking forward to more fishing trips to come Awesome Kayak 2 Aug 18 I purchased this kayak after a lot of researching and could not be happier. For beginning into kayaking and kayak angling this is the kayak for you. Ive been on mine 4 times going out again this weekend and havent had any issue yet. This kayak looks better in person then online, and is really easy to use. The only con so far is the seat is a little uncomfortable (but for the price of kayak where I bought it easily can look over it) and the holes by the seat water likes to splash up so you will get wet (granted you are kayaking so this really isnt a huge issue just putting experience out).
All together this kayak is a great starter if you wanna try kayaking and kayak fishing. Would HIGHLY reccomend this product. Superior Customer Service 2 Aug 18 I contacted Lifetime Customer Service via their web form to see if I could purchase a replacement nose pug for my Angler 120, I was just looking for a price but John immediately shipped out a complete assembly at no charge. I thanked him, advising I was not anticipating such a quick response nor at no cost and that I was also missing a cleat to secure the rear shock cord system. John responded by advising one had been added to the shipment free of charge.
In an era of sub-par customer service this is incredible and a welcome change. Some may say dont get excited they are relatively inexpensive parts, I say it is Lifetimes hassle free approach that made the difference. I give John and Lifetime 10 stars for exceeding this customers expectations! My boat is whole again and I am very satisfied :-) Floats but damaged 26 Jul 18 Nice beginner kayak. Very stable for a small boat.
Unfortunately when I picked it up at the store it had a deep scratch in the back and it was missing the fishing rod holder. Walmart was out of stock so I guess Ill have to get one on amazon. Got a small adjustment but would have preferred an undamaged and complete kayak. Florida hauler 25 Jul 18 I bought this on vacation in Florida so I could do some shark fishing! I caught some!
Seriously though this is an incredible value. I did have a problem with the seat pad coming off and the drain plug coming off during transit. Called lifetime and theyre sending replacements free of charge! Ive had lots of questions about this boat in Ohio and have several people buy them because of my happiness with the brand! Btw this is my third kayak and still the one I use the most.
Thanks guys! Very pleased 24 Jul 18 Bought this kayak mainly for fish, not disappointed at all, have had it on several different lakes. Its very easy to paddle and very stable, super light, easy to transport on top of my jeep with no racks, very pleased with my purchase, highly recommended. Great Kayak For The Money 23 Jul 18 For $250 I think this is a pretty sweet deal. I saw it on Amazon for $388.
Its my first Kayak and seems to be pretty well made. As other reviewers have mentioned, get the two plugs for the drains next to the seat, or you butt will be wet instantly. It tracks pretty well and is pretty stable. I felt like the storage behind the seat was pretty useless. You cant really get to it unless you are a contortionist.
Paddle is basic but does the job. Theres no way you will be disappointed with this kayak for the price. Thinking about getting a second! Customer Service is awesome! 23 Jul 18 Bought Kayak and found it was missing a plug.
Replaced free of charge! Great! Relaxation Only 18 Jul 18 Kayak as advertised. First time in Lake yesterday. Very enjoyable.
We are just occasional Lake kayakers. Lifetime Tamarack Angler 100 Fishing Kayak 15 Jul 18 I purchased the blue and black version of this kayak Saturday, July 14th after reading all the reviews I could and comparing it to other angler kayaks around the price range and could not be happier with it. This kayak is super stable when fishing and tracks very well. I am 55 and about 150 lbs and it felt solid in the water.I took it out for a few hours and loved every second. For the money I dont believe you can beat this kayak.
The only issue Ive ran into so far is the paddle that comes with the kayak is a little hard to keep a grip when wet (mine kinda slipped around but can be easily fixed with a little grip tape or something of that nature). But for being a beginner of kayaking it might just be me. I would highly recommend this product to anyone interested in kayaking but doesnt want to spend the big bucks on one this is the one you want. Stable, easy to control and fairly comfortable 15 Jul 18 A remarkable stable kayak that is easy to maneuver, tracks well, and is more comfortable than most out of the box. Its a low-slung open type that at first sight you wouldnt think would fee as secure as it does.
I also own another brand Kayak also from Walmart, but the Tamarack is by far my favorite. So much so that I just ordered another. Very good boat for the money. 15 Jul 18 Very stable. However-If its packaged look it over before taking delivery.
A friend and I each ordered one. He has had three so far that have been returned due to damage in transit. The customer service person has been super about it. Eagerly awaiting number 4. Good for the Money 11 Jul 18 This seems to be a good kayak for the money.
The first one I received had a scratch down the side that, on closer inspection, I could stick a fingernail through into the hull area. A call to Wal-Mart quickly got the issue resolved. The freight company picked up the defective kayak and delivered a new one at no extra charge. The new kayak seems fine. Water does get in from the top when it rains and goes into the hull, but I ordered a kayak cover to stop that issue.
It tracks well and seems pretty stable for a kayak. 3 Jul 18 Ordered 2, arrived at store a day early, pickup experience was great. On the river 3 days later. Very stable, easy to control and maneuver, even for a 79 year old. Very satisfied with them.
Lifetime Tamarack Kayak 100 2 Jul 18 Wonderful kayak for the price! Sturdy, comfortable and lightweight I am 5 10 and this is perfect! First Kayaks 1 Jul 18 I received this kayak for fathers day and was able to take it out. Let my wife try it and the next day I bought one for her. They are very stable and comfortable have taken them to lakes around Lake Tahoe and they are great and lots of fun to explore on.
Decent kayak 1 Jul 18 its a decent kayak for the price. This was my first (and last) kayak. Ive always fished either from shore or from a boat. I ended up returning this because it just wasnt for me. I didnt like having to paddle and fish at the same time.
I also didnt like not being able to stand up. For just a good kayak, this is for you. But if youre wanting to fish from it, maybe look into getting something a hair bigger and that you can stand up in. Fantastic starter for fishing 28 Jun 18 I just purchased this as my first fishing Kayak and I am extremely pleased. Very stable platform and does very well in rough water.
First fishing trip with this was 5 1/2 hours and I cant wait to do it again. Only down side is the size of the hatches. Slightly wider and this would be be PERFECT! Excellent Customer Service !!! 27 Jun 18 I have two different Lifetime Kayak models.
Called to replace a torn kayak backrest pad and was pleasantly advised that as a first time incident, they would replace the item at no cost to me. The customer service department was extremely helpful and friendly. Thank you, Lifetime !!! Its a must buy... 26 Jun 18 This is the first kayak I have ever owned or been in and I feel very stable and not afraid Im going to flip over. It is very well made and Im very glad I bought this kayak compared to others.
Great kayak 24 Jun 18 This is one well built kayak. Would be a great kayak at twice the money. Stable tracks well. Im very happy with it and have recommended it to others. Tamara fishing 17 Jun 18 I love it !
Fantastic Kayak! 15 Jun 18 Purchased two of these kayaks a few weeks back and man am I glad I did! I was skeptical because of the price point, thinking that the quality might not be there. I was completely wrong. These things are sturdy and all of the kayak is made with durable materials.
The rod holders are made of extremely strong plastic, but the paddles are nothing special though they get the job done. These babies handle just fine out on the big Lake Michigan waters! Highly recommend these yaks. Below I have linked a video of me fishing bass out of them! Go ahead and buy it!
14 Jun 18 This is a great sit-on top fishing kayak for the money! The features are basic, yet adequate. It comes with a paddle and a mounted fishing holder. Its a good width, and a little barge-like, making it easy to get on and off by yourself without too much work. My only complaint is the hatch opens to the whole inside of the kayak so your stuff can slide from side to side depending on what you put in the hatch.
JUST GO AHEAD AND BUY IT. WELL WORTH THE $250.00. 13 Jun 18 Im normally not one to write reviews but I had to on this product. All I can say is go ahead and buy it and you will be glad you did. Im 510 225 pounds and it carried me down a creek with no problem.
After a four hour SLOW cruise It is very comfortable as well. Great deal 12 Jun 18 The kayak was stable in flat water, easy to paddle and maneuver. Comes complete ready to drop it in the water and fish. Only draw back is the seat. I mounted a stadium seat in it and it was perfect.
Fished 3.5 hours without any aches or pains. For $250, its well worth it....5 stars. Fun way to enjoy the summer 11 Jun 18 Grandkids love it 4 Jun 18 My boyfriend did a lot of research before we purchased our first kayak. We absolutely love our Lifetime Tamarack Angler. The only thing we would change is getting a longer paddle.
Other than that, it is easy to get in an out of, it tracks nicely and has perfect storage. Great features 25 May 18 Im so glad that i baught this kayak easy in and out light weight great on the water and ive caught a bunch of fish so far and i can slide in on them and still be able to move around to catch them, ive baught other kayaks and im liking this one the best. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lifetime Tamarack Angler 21 May 18 Bought one of these last year....already have an eMotion camo sit-on top fishing kayak. Very easy to paddle, and use. Tracks very true, and with the pole holders, great to take out fishing!
