Maryland Newb

[Fitz]

Hey!

To start, I'm excited to get into kayak fishing. I've been fishing since I could walk and I wanted a new challenge, well new toy at least. I live in Maryland and I'm mainly going to be hitting small lakes for crappie, trout and bass. I would also like to try the Potomac for some stripers.

After doing some research, I think I would like to get a Malibu Stealth. My question is, what is the benefit/drawback of getting the 14' versus 12'?

Also, I'm still new to Maryland. Are there any other lackeys from Maryland that want to get together?
