Cappy, if there's one thing I'm learning, it's that die-hard fibreglass kayers are rabidly passionate about their style of yak. And no amount of reasoning would ever sway their opinion. And in many ways, the same is true of most placcy yak owners - especially those who fish from them. So when comparing the two, it's a mute point.  
 
I will say this, however, because it's got nothing to do with either style of kayak... anyone who thinks that stuffing their rod down their life jacket is the way to go is either catching minnows or toad fish. More power to ya!
