Bixby J-2 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Salmotrutta · 11-17-2022, 05:15 PM

I've tried 2-man pontoon type boats with trolling motors and they work in many areas, but don't work in the small to mid size Rivers where some of the largest fish reside. Larger, older fish get spooked by boats and humans floating downstream. Also, trolling motor props get torn up by the limestone bottom very easily. The Bixpy, mounted on a kayak rudder, which i plan on rigging with a lever I can operate by hand for very shallow areas, might just be perfect. Any thoughts? Am I crazy, lol?
