Description
The Mayfly is back - purpose-built for fly fishing. Designed to minimize line snags and maximize casting efficiency, the Mayfly offers an ideal fly fishing platform for anglers targeting rivers, ponds, lakes, and saltwater flats. Snag-free features like protected footrests, fly box storage, rod butt props, and integrated fly patches make it a dream for serious fly fishermen.
With smart storage and clean rigging options, the Mayfly is a top pick for anglers of all disciplines, whether they’re seasoned pros or new to the sport.
Every model in our 2026 fishing lineup now comes equipped with the Jackson Kayak Comfort Seat 5.0.

It’s the most advanced version of our iconic seat system, now standard across the board.

Suggested Application
The Mayfly is purpose-built for anglers who thrive in calm, stealthy waters where precision and comfort matter most. Its wide, stable platform and open deck layout make it perfectly suited for lakes, ponds, and slow-moving rivers, where standing to cast and sight-fishing are part of the adventure. The Mayfly also excels in shallow flats and coastal estuaries, gliding quietly through skinny water and keeping you close to the action without spooking fish.
With plenty of space for gear and a design tuned for long days on the water, the Mayfly shines wherever thoughtful presentation and a relaxed, steady ride lead to more time fishing and less time adjusting.
