Sight fishing

I take my son and put him in the front of the Hobie Outfitter and have him cast to reds while I power, either by pedal or paddle power if it is too shallow. I did cry about what I paid for it but it has worked very well and I will even take it by myself and it reacts fine. Storage is a bit of an issue but you can make due.
