Question Newbie looking for a good fishing kayak

Hello all,
I am looking for the best fishing kayak I can buy with 1,000 dollars. I have looked around and have thought about the heritage redfish 12, or emotion grand slam angler.....but, I just don't know enough about either to make a decision....If anyone has any suggestions between the two, or a suggestion for what I should get please let me know....

- A little about where and how I fish.... I usually fish rivers, sometimes the current is moderately fast, but not too over powering. I fish mostly for smallmouth and largemouth, and would like something that is stable, has a place for a livewell, and that I could possibly stand up on...(I don't think that is too much to ask) If anyone has suggestions...Again, please help me out! I am ready to do this!

I'd test paddle a few out to see if that's the one for me.

The Prowler Big Game takes some beating when it comes to stability, comfort and load capacity, with the space avialable for a centre hatch it would be easy enough to fit an internal bait well. BUT it is a big lump to paddle, drag or load onto your car.

Try before you buy is sound advice.
