Mirage Drive Tension - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

NICKWORN · 07-26-2018, 02:09 PM

So i have played around with the different tension levels on the drive and think I'm preferring them snug to the top. It seems to have less drag and a lot easier on my legs for long trips. Short strokes work great at this setting.

However with the tension bolt almost completely down I got a ton more speed ( not really worried about that) but seems to tire my legs out a lot quicker. And smaller strokes weren't as effective as long strokes-no homo

Whats everyone's thoughts?

Is getting so close I can smell the butter melting
