Kayaks are incredibly sturdy especially the bigger sit on top ones. My buddies all have hobies and they stand and piss out of them. I have a little yak and only turned it over one time; my first time in it and was reaching behind me for a shrimp bucket. You'll learn quickly what you can and cannot do in them. I'm in shallow water 90% of the time so if I do flip, no big deal. I have my gear tied down with leashes just in case but don't think I'll flip any more. I landed a 27" red yesterday with no problem and have caught several big trout with no hiccups. They can be a great ride when you hook into a jack or bull red. Be sure to be able to pull your anchor quickly if you do. It is fun fishing marshes where most boats can't go.
