Brendan is right, the heavier it is, the less you will use it. Lightness is expensive but well worth it. My Wenonah is 15 foot. Handles 2 people and enough gear for short overnights.
I have paddled many purpose built fishing kayaks. They have their place. For me that place is the ocean or any big water.
Where I fish in Mexico we fish an island about 2 miles off the beach. Wouldn't dream of using a canoe there. But for comfort and ease of use, it is a canoe hands down. Particularly for moving water. If most of your fishing will be on the upper Potomac running an occasional class II rapid, you need a canoe. Sit on tops simply cannot maneuver as well as a canoe in moving water.
