Mine is old and has no trolling motor or fish-finder but I hope to get some use out of it on the neignborhood lake.

If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?
That's pretty spiffy. Looks like a lot of fun.

I want one
That is so cool.
It needs a 25hp Johnson. Get her up on step.
I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.
Damn! If that isn't the caddilac of inner tubes.
I know what hunts you.
Pretty slick.

How's that gonna work? He'll get to the middle of the lake, start drinking beer and just row in a circle. Ya gotta have two hands to man the oars. Either that or he'll start two fisted drinkin' and never get back home. That last one might work.

Now that sounds like spark plug fishin'..........
You, maybe a friend, 30 pack....your fishing gear, and a couple of spark plugs.
Tie on a spark plug, cast out and pop a cold one.
Now one of two things will happen,.... you will start catching fish on the spark plug, or you will run out of beer..........
In either case, it's time to go home.

Very nifty little boat !
THE PROSPECTOR ! !
Like is sits is weighs less than 50 pounds. Even with three back surgeries I can get this one on and off the roof rack by myself. It is actually lighter than it looks especally considering the thick polyurathene used in the floats. 3/4" and 1" steel tubing is all that holds it together. The seat is nylon mesh.
Due to the weather I have not had a chance to get it out. I picked it up Saturday and the wind was gusting at 20 mph and yesterday it started raining, has not really stopped yet. I will be teaching for the next two days but I hope to throw it in the water tomorrow afternoon. Temp is suposed to reach near 70 and hopefully the wind will stay calm.

That sounds like a cool rig......i like the idea of being able to handle it your self.
When you dicide you want to go....just go.
I wouldn't have room for the dog, so I'll stick to the small duck boat or canoe or big duck/fishing boat or the 10 ft V-hull (river bank boat) or still looking for a 12 ft jon boat,and need to build the pirouge....... yeah need lots of boats....that way if you lose one,(not mentioning any F.A.R.T. names) you have redundent system.

If your dog is not to large the Cabels duck decoy skid/float will tuck in nice at the rear. I have seen some of these rigs with those noodle floats the kids use, mounted on all the sides.
No noodles and no dog to worry about.
Small cooler with beverages will be to the left, tackle box to the right. One rod holder remains on the oar mount. I intend to paddle and fish until I have to take a nap, then start over.
I figure between the life jacket and the floating seat cushion if I doze off and fall out of the chair I will remain afloat until I can scramble back to the boat. Apparently this is an anticipated behavior pattern since the mfg includes a tether strap to attach to ones' ankle as if the rig were a surf board.

Jeeze. If that were my target I'd never get out of the truck. I'd never leave the house for that matter.Originally Posted by Kyrat
