I would strongly recommend a sit-on-top for fishing- they can be stable enough to stand up and cast from, you never have to worry about sinking your kayak, and your legs wont cramp up after 6 hours of fishing.
If you fall out of a sit-inside kayak, you will have a much harder time getting back in. A sit-on-top usually doesn't even flip over when you fall off, and it wont be full of water when you get back on.
I would look into the [url "http://www.oceankayak.com/kayaks/angler_editions/scrambler_xt_angler.html"]Ocean Kayak Scrambler XT[/url] or [url "http://www.oceankayak.com/kayaks/angler_editions/prowler_trident_11_angler.html"]Ocean Kayak Prowler[/url]. These are both designed specifically for anglers and are extremely stable.
Don't skimp on a good paddle either. It is your engine. There are very good fiberglass paddles for under $100.
