It lands on your doorstep like any other package. We email tracking the day it leaves our shop.
Order gear on the same order as a kayak we're hand delivering or shipping, and it comes with the kayak.
Kayak Shipments
We deliver kayaks two ways. Inside our delivery area, we bring your boat to you ourselves. Everywhere else, it ships LTL freight with a carrier that reports a 99.9% damage-free delivery rate. We'll tell you which one you're getting once your order is placed along with more details.
If we hand deliver it
Nothing to inspect, nothing to sign at the curb. We're the ones unloading your kayak, so if anything is wrong, tell us right there and we'll take care of it. We will call before hand for a meetup place.
If it ships LTL freight
Look the boat over before you sign the delivery receipt. If you see damage, write it on the receipt. That one step is what protects your claim. Then email clear photos to helpdesk@cfoutdoors.com within 2 hours of delivery. We also will email you more details on this process once the order is placed.
What we cover
Structural damage. Anything that compromises the hull or would void the manufacturer's warranty, confirmed with the vendor. We make it right.
Cosmetic damage. Light scratches or minor surface dents that don't affect performance or structure. We send a repair kit when one is available. If you'd rather have a replacement, a 20% restocking fee applies plus full shipping back to us.

The Jackson Bite Angler is a budget-friendly sit on top fishing kayak that keeps the trusted hull from the Jackson Bite recreational kayak. It adds flush mount rod holders and cup holders on both sides of the seat, so it is ready to fish when you get to the water.
The open-concept deck is one of the roomiest standing platforms in Jackson Kayak's fishing lineup. There is storage fore and aft with a bungee system, and four recessed areas on each side hold tackle boxes. It fishes small lakes, rivers, ponds, streams and inshore saltwater.
2026 models include the Comfort Seat 5.0, which has a deeper ergonomic base for better posture and a lower center of gravity. Models from 2025 and earlier include the Comfort Seat 4.0.

Been out a few times and love the Bite Angler. Seat is super comfortable and over all very stable. I like the large cockpit, gives you plenty of room for gear and you can also deal With fish easily.
If I were to buy another Jackson kayak I would buy from Caney Fork Outdoors. They are a great company to deal with. Super responsive with questions and shipping.

Fantastic kayak that is stable and comfortable for an XL man. (Six foot 7)
I got two - I was going to get the Bite Rec but paid a little extra for the better seat and so forth. I've had them out twice and it's been awesome. The first trip we were out for 4 hours or so and I was super comfortable the entire time. I'm a pretty big guy at 6'3 - well over 300 lbs. The Kayak's floated me just fine in the forward positions. If I scooted all the way back - the rear would take on a little water - but you can just sit forward or put in some plugs if you are heavy like me. Even all the way forward I can basically stretch my legs all the way out so - no worries there.
Got 2 of these for me and my wife. They are super stable. First time out we were out for 4-5 hours in the open Tennessee River and back waters of Chattanooga. The boat was super comfortable. My wife has a bad back and she said her back was fine afterwards. Would recommend for anyone.
