I discussed why I believe the name brand kayaks are worth the additional cost as opposed kayaks purchased from a big box store. I would like to expand on that article today to talk about another added benefit to purchasing a name brand such as Jackson Kayak. That benefit is the dealer you purchase it from.

By and large, name brand kayaks are only available through a local dealer and not big box stores. This is a huge benefit to the kayak purchaser, you. The knowledge possessed by a good local dealer like Caney Fork Outdoors brings with it tremendous value. It can be the difference between getting the right kayak that suits your paddling and fishing style or getting a kayak that is ill suited to you and a likely candidate to end up for sale on Craigslist.

The local kayak outfitter is typically a small business and likely a family business as well. This means everyone has skin in the game and will go the extra mile to make sure you leave happy. It does them no good to sell you what they happen to have on hand if you will end up unhappy never to return or recommend them to your friends. My personal experience with Caney Fork Outdoors has shown me that they treat their customers like family. Talking with others who have also chosen CFO, they frequently go the extra mile with arranging free demos to meeting customers after regular business hours for kayak pick-ups.

Some things are hard to put a value on. I am also well aware that difficult economic and financial situations are plentiful these days. Not everyone is able to afford a name brand kayak. I am just as happy to see someone that is able to get on the water and enjoy the sport of kayak fishing no matter where they purchase it. I do know that if you are able to spend the extra money on a name brand kayak such as a Jackson Kayak from a dealer like Caney Fork Outdoors, you will definitely be able to realize the added value that comes with your purchase. You can also rest assured that they appreciate your business and will do things to give back to the paddling and kayak fishing communities in the state of Tennessee.

Caney Fork Outdoors is a proud sponsor of kayak fishing tournaments hosted by Chattanooga Bass Yakkers, Smokey Mountain Kayak Anglers and Tennessee Kayak Anglers.
