I have the Pungo 140, don't fish out of it yet but seems like it would be great for that. Super steady, pretty quick and tracks well.

The Pungo (http://www.kayakreview.org/go/pungo120/) is a good kayak, but also check out this page on how to choose a fishing kayak (http://www.kayakreview.org/fishing-kayaks).
