Jon Boat vs. Kayak

[raincheck]

Not meaning to hijack this thread, but what are the pros and cons of the sit in vs. sit on kayaks? I have an opportunity to purchase a "sit in" fairly cheap and never even considered the difference.

I thought that a sit in was better till i got a sit on top.Which was my 2nd kayak.When you hit thin water its easy too just step off and let it drift on down the creek.I stand up most of the time too fish because most of the fish i catch i see the strike.Thats how close you are too the action.
