Strip: Fishing from kayaks?

Hello again.. A couple of things on fishing from kayaks. I am looking for not only lay out ideas but perhaps a plan recomendation. Curently my thoughts are a Guilemot Exepidition single. If i am out for fun it needs to have the ability to roll yet to be stable enough to fish from if there is such an animal thats the kayak i am looking for. Would a rudder also be the way to go?

Pictures of kayaks rigged up for fishing would be awesome. Slap a rod holder on the thing and your done? I guess what I am asking is how far do people go with this? fishfinders, trolling moters, gps, paddle rest, small shelf/storage area reachable on the fly for tackle and such?? If anyone does or has done stuff I would love some details..

Thanks

Mike Thomas
