Never tried it but I think hooks could be hard on them.

I had this one:
I ended up returning it before the 30 day return window was closed. It didn't handle like a regular kayak, it seemed bulky and slow. You sit a little low in them, even with the seat. If you have 2 adults in it, even though we were under the weight limit, it was pretty hard going (my partner had never kayaked before though). It was pretty thick, I wouldn't be too worried about hooking it if you are careful. Be careful with the width measurements, I dont think they measure from the inside of the kayak, but from the outside, you will lose a good foot in width with it being inflated. The biggest issue I had was after you're done, you either have to dry the entire thing before you pack it away in your car, or unpack and blow it up again at home to dry it completely, otherwise you'll end up with nasty moldy water in all the little folds. It took over 30 minutes to deflate and dry it after I pulled it out of the water.
The advantages were you could throw it in just about anywhere, it folded up into a backpack basically so you could pack it in and out. I always thought it would be good for packing into a small lake or pond, even though they can get a little heavy.
