Default New to Kayaks and unsure what to look for.

Hello,

I'm new to kayaks. I'd like to fish ponds & small lakes. From what I can tell I would like to find a sit on top design. The kayak needs to be able to carry me with ease. I'm 6ft 2in, 250lbs. So I was hoping for something that can carry at least 350-400lbs+. It will be used solo, but I like to have enough room for gear.

The big issue, it needs to be inflatable. ATM I don't have the space to store a hard shell kayak. I would also like to keep the initial cost under $1000.

Are there any I should definitely check out? Any I should avoid?

After some searching on my own I found some that interest me.
But I don't know what to look for in quality.

Would any of the following kayaks work for me? Pros/Cons for each?

Sevylor: Colorado or Rio

Aquaglide: Blackfoot HB Angler XL

Hobie: Mirage i11S or Mirage i12S

Elkton Outdoors:
Elkton Outdoors Inflatable Fishing Kayak v2

Advanced Elements: Straitedge Angler Pro: AE1055
