Sdspeed's post made me think about this subject. I ride a Revo and have never owned a paddle kayak. I love my Revo, especially as a fishing platform but have to admit that I really admire the guys who can easily outfish me while holding a paddle in their hands.
Sometimes I think that fishing on a Hobie is kind of like cheating. Then I look at how well some other guys do without having the "hands-free advantage". It makes me realize that it is probably more about the guy who is sitting on the piece of plastic rather than the particular brand of plastic he, (or she), is sitting on.
Back in the day, I used to race a bit on skis. I had a stable full of skis for all the different conditions. It would have been unthinkable to approach the sport any other way. Maybe kayaking is the same type of sport.
