Is this kayak stable enough to stand and fish?

Hi, Your weight and height will be a factor if you'll be able to stand and fish. The kayak is very stable and most people are able to stand and fish off of it. For example at 170lbs and 5'11 you'll have no problem standing and fishing.

Hi, the width of this kayak is 33"

in your experience with the manatee @ 9 foot how dose it handle on a windy day at the lake

I found the manatee very stable and easily managed on the water. I fish allot of “small” water and generally don’t find myself assaulted by high winds, on big lakes. I have found the kayak to be very predictable in wakes/waves and haven’t experienced any alarming shortfalls in handling.

does this kayak have a trap that i can attach my paddle to?

Good Day, You can attach the paddle to the side of the kayak. By the side carry handles of the Manatee Fishing kayak, you will find two bungee chords that you can hook and secure your paddle to the kayak.

Kayak without the Heavy weight.

This kayak is just the ticket for getting around lakes without having to lift a heavier kayak. The seat is comfortable enough to fish for a few hours. There’s plenty of room for my needs. Worth the investment.

Vanhunks great customer service.

kayak looks good and moves good, I bought it in the blue and black color got a lot of compliments on it from ladies I go with. Were just a bunch going floating on a river having to dodge rocks and easily got around them. had a rocking contest with one in a popular brand here in Ohio and my Vanhunks was much more stable.
