AQUAGLIDE BLACKFOOT 160
ALL ABOUT THE BLACKFOOT
This is a true angling kayak, it's even named after the great Blackfoot River in the American northwest state of Montana, which boasts world class fishing.
It comes in two sizes, a single option which comes in at 13ft long, and a tandem option which is 16ft, and both of these kayaks have ample room for your fishing gear.
The Blackfoot allows the angler to go from sitting to standing easily and with plenty of stability for casting or when reeling in a big one.
It also boasts loads of room for storage and also a plethora of mounting options for carrying rods, tools, adjusting the seating arrangement and even holders for your early morning coffee or your evening brewski. The storage room is great for all your gear, a cooler, even space to put an extra seat if you wanted to take a child or dog with you.

WHAT TYPE OF KAYAK IS BEST FOR FISHING?
The first thing is to make sure you look for a fishing specific kayak. What is the difference between a normal kayak and a fishing kayak? The main difference is they are usually a little wider to allow the angler to stand up when casting or reeling in a fish, and also the amount of mounts and fixtures they have to accommodate fishing gear, such as rod holders or anchor points.

IS AN INFLATABLE KAYAK SUSTAINABLE?
It's no secret the materials used in inflatable products are perhaps not the most environmentally friendly, but used correctly, and built to last, there can be a sustainable solution.
We asked Aquaglide, one of the top brands globally to give us the run down on how they aim towards a more sustainable brand.
---
At Aquaglide, we build products that are designed to get folks outside in nature. To say outdoor spaces are at the core of everything we do is an understatement. Unfortunately, human-induced climate change threatens the places we love so dearly – and as a team of passionate paddlers and outdoorspeople, we could no longer wait to take action. So over the past year, we have rebuilt the mission of Aquaglide to focus not only on paddlers and people – but also, the planet. We are a small team, but aim to take every step we can to limit our negative impact and maximize our positive change. By doing so, we hope to inspire others within our community to become advocates for our natural spaces along the way.
