There's only a fine distinction between fly fishing and standing on the bank looking like an idiot.

Hey Bart,
Sorry i cant give you a tonne of information about the native craft.
In black and white it seems like a good craft and in principle the drive might be ok.
What I can say is this. I've not heard anything bad about them,
But by the same token, I haven't seen anyone apart from mags talking about them.
So I would have to assume there might not be that many of them out there.
Now look how many people post in regards to their Hobies.
Apart from minor details like the size or position of say a hatch,
Or maybe some cosmetic detail, I haven't heard a bad thing about Hobies.

So in my opinion, I don't hear good or bad about the Native craft,
I do however wonder if there are many on the water.
I don't hear anything bad about a Hobie and look how many there are on the water.
I know which brand I would be looking at buying.

Cheers Tip

I can honestly say that in all the time I've been kayak fishing I have never seen one on the water.

This is the first I've heard of them.

I just googled one and it was about $2700.

Very feature packed they are very impressive looking NOT!

It's an old faithful styled conoe shape with a seat an pedals. And I'll assume rudder controls.
Alot of money for a yak with a prop

He was looking at the ultimate 12 angler which is a sit in paddle yak. But I think he has changed his mind now. :evilgrin: cheers Jim :thumbsup:
