Anti-Hobie sentiment? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Why not have both? After a couple of 'harrowing' surf entrances where I really wish I had the hobie pedals to haul ass, I am thinking of getting the pro-angler (I am a 'plus' size guy...) and see no reason why you can't use the pedals when you need them (surf launch, chasing boils) but paddle otherwise for the exercise.

Seems to me it's nice to have the drive for those times you need that burst of speed.

I can't wait for summer!!
