So much fun!

An aluminum canoe w/ a 2hp Yamaha was my only fishing boat until 5 years ago when I bought a Princecraft 162... I sure had some memorable fishing from that canoe... even a couple species PBs that haven't been beaten yet...
I still have the aluminum canoe and the Yammie.... and the cart that I made for it. I occasionally use the ole canoe for fishing on smaller local back lakes without launches. & the more distant lakes eg Quetico, Algonquin. But mostly I use the canoe for Duck hunting now...
I wouldn't mind trying Kayak fishing when the kids get older, but right now family fishing is best done from the Princecraft.
I do miss some the underfished hideaways that I used to get to with the canoe...

I can appreciate the peace and soiltude one gets from a canoe or a yak.
I'm not a big fan of canoes. I've never been in a yak. Once they make a 17 1/2ft. yak with a 90in. beam and a 100hp rating I may give one a try.

Kayaks and Canoes are for Nature lovers and Birders...

Fishing from a Kayak,nothing like it.
#1 close to the fish
#2 can sneak up on them.Quiet.
# can easily release the fish.
#3 can get in shallow or in the weeds ,where the big boats can't
