    • Fantastic sit-on-top kayak. Stable and great for normal paddling or a day of fishing! Fantastic sit-on-top kayak. Stable and great for normal paddling or a day of fishing!

A very stable kayak for a sit-on-top. This is a great choice for those looking for a day of paddling with others and has plenty of storage for hitting the water to do some fishing. Some might think the seat is a little low for fishing and not having the option to sit higher would be a big negative, or even not having a really stable option for standing in the kayak itself. However, when I've had a higher seat on another kayak and the ability to stand... I simply just didn't do it very much at all. I also find it much easier to net a fish, place the handle of the net under my knee and then unhook the fish, it just felt more natural to do that. With larger dedicated fishing kayaks, I also found myself not being able to keep up with my wife in her Pungo 120, so moving to the Tarpon 120 was really nice. It let us get out and paddle together and keep up with one another without a problem. I also found the Tarpon to be slick out on the river and cut through water nicely, so paddling didn't take much effort to get the kayak moving nicely. I really like the firm handles in the front/back and each side, compared to the previous model which had rubber grips with nylon attaching them. The seat is very comfortable! It's one of the most under rated things when it comes to purchasing a kayak it seems. The seats for Wilderness are great and you can paddle for hours and hours and get the support needed without having a sore bottom or back afterwards. Having the option to pull the straps on each side in tight, and pull the handle upwards in the front area to bring the seat down to support your lower back firmly as well as it pulling the front of the seat up to support you knees... it's just a very well thought out seat for a sit on top that really gives the support in the right places. It's nice to have some dry storage in the front and plenty of room in the back for a milk crate, cooler or whatever you'd like to bring on your journey. Overall I would say this is a great kayak that covers a lot of bases. It lets you get out and fish comfortably and also just have a day of paddling as it cuts through the water nicely. I would highly recommend this kayak to anyone! ... show more

    • Good but not as perfect as I would have hoped
Color: Forest Green
Tracking is great. It took several tries to figure out what seat position worked for my bad back. I ended up needing to add the lumbar yak pad. As lumbar support was not great for me. I kayak year round and have been for years. My last kayak finally wore out. I got this one for the seat. It’s pretty good. Like I said tracking is really good but I feel like the boat is slow in the water but from that I’ve learned to maybe slow down and enjoy the water more than a big workout. Guess it’s good I also go to the gym then. The bummer is the scratches as others have mentioned when delivered. It’s just wrapped in a little clear plastic like siran wrap almost. Also I was missing parts. I finally got the missing parts now after several attempts, playing some game to prove I bought the kayak. Amazon just told me I had to go direct to manufacturer and even that was a bit of a challenge to find the right place/person and even form to fill out. I’ve also noticed that in just one months time, the seat fabric is fading and even more so the trim edging in two months has gone from orange to now yellow. If I put the back down the part that is covered is darker than the exposed area. I live in Seattle so not like we have massive sun. So if you care about that, cover your seat. ... show more

Ordered the breeze blue Tarpon 120 from Amazon as we had difficulty in finding one locally. We enjoy the Wilderness kayak, especially the Tarpon 120 but would reconsider ordering online due to poor quality of shipping. Time of delivery was different than requested, with the window of delivery changing 3 times. The kayak was delivered outside of all stated delivery windows and was damaged. ... show more

Kayak was in fine shape but missing parts. The waterproof box, Magnetic Drink Holder, and Scupper plugs are missing. I'm hoping Wilderness will reach out and ship me the missing items. **** Update. Contacted Wilderness Systems Through Their Website and opened up a Warranty Ticket. They contacted me within a day and shipped me out the missing parts which took three days. ... show more

    • Fantastic
As a bigger guy..280 pounds I was worried how this would sit in the water. Not only did I have no problems getting into the Kayak but I was faster than my 120 pound wife. I felt like I was cutting through the water like a warm knife through butter. I did buy scupper plugs for the back well of the boat and now my gear stays dry. Also, because I am tall, 6 foot 2 and I saw nothing about leg length on any reviews I will add this; At 6 foot you are completely legs straight. So it's a slight bend for us taller guys but the Kayak is stable enough that you can hang a leg over the edge if you need to. ... show more
