Quote from: neurosis on July 07, 2023, 04:48 PMI took it out today and I'm just saying.. I'm exhausted. 

Not from the kayaking.  from putting it in and taking it out of the truck. 

I was waiting for this comment.  :hrhr: 

That thing is yuge and deserves its own trailer.

Quote from: Del. on July 07, 2023, 07:59 AMI learned the hard way that taking kids fishing is not always about catching fish, but having fun skipping stones and exploring along the banks. That's what makes them want to do it again.
And it's about casting. Flinging that rig as far and as often as possible.

ive never tried it but it does look like something i'd enjoy.  Most of the close to me local rivers aren't fly fishing friendly.

I have a feeling that my g/f is going to disown me before the weekend is over.

Tell me you're just a kayak poser without telling me you're just a kayak poser...  :fish:

Wow, so it's pedal powered, and you can also hook up a small outboard motor too?

Yea.. the guy wired it for all kinds of electronics.  I'd have to buy the battery.  He's selling the trolling motor and battery for $500.  I may just end up buying it

I know zippo about kayaks but $500 sounds like a steal to me! Besides, if you're all tuckered out after a long day of fishing having to pedal back home might not be so fun....

He wired the entire kayak to run off of that battery and added an adapter and a control box to individually power each plug.  He did a really good job on it and it's super nice.  Here is a photo of the control he added.
