Try craigslist, ebay classifieds, recycler.com or go to your local fishing shop.
shop around for something used. Try Craislist and other online classifieds and your local paper. A canoe or kayak costs $400+… my cedar strip kayak cost me about $800 to build and took 6 months… so don’t think you can save money doing it yourself though it is a great project. There are plans for plywood canoes and kayaks (fiberglass coated of course). You might actually be able to build one for about $200 but still you will have 40-50 hours of labor at least. Kayaks arent exactly made for comfortable fishing though. Struggling with line and fish in cramped space is just inviting a hook in the ear… or whatever…
Fishing kayaks are the best way to go fishing in areas where you can take a motorized boat due to to shallow or too much sea weed. Native Kayaks makes some of the most versatile fishing kayaks. Check some of them out at Kayaks.net – >
