Peddle vs. Paddle - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

When I started yakking the mirage drive was years in the future. The drive was not well recieved and most paddlers seamed to think it was a joke, gimmick, or some sort of sell out. I thought the mirage looked worth trying and did try the original outback. Liked the drive but not the boat. Also I could never afford a hobie. So things have changed. I have a hobie now and I love it. I also have a prowler 15 and a battleship malibu extream that I love to paddle. So I guess to answer your question, I switch back and forth depending on where I am, how far I want to go, or how far I may need to carry the yak. Mike
