Hello from southwest Texas

Hello everyone,
I just joined TKF after having been a lurker for a while now. I am definitely a novice of both kayaking and fishing even though I grew up being on the lake all summer. My screen name is derived from my wakeboarding background, but I don't get to do that much anymore.
We live near Lake Amistad and have been taking my kids out with some friends and we're getting into fishing together. Currently we are using a tandem canoe, but we are ready to upgrade to some fishing kayaks. I have been on several but never owned one myself.
I picked up a Perception Pescador 10.0 for my kids to share as their 9th & 11th birthday's coming up next month. If they both enjoy it equally, we'll look for another one for Christmas. For Lake Amistad and not a small guy, I'm looking for the ideal kayak for me for Christmas, or sooner. I'm thinking at least 12', or even larger if I can find the right one available.
Opinions and recommendations are welcomed on that subject.
Regardless, I am glad to be a part of this forum and look forward to learning more about the sport, and possibly running into some members along the way.
