The Kayak Fishing Store

[FJR]

Bought a bassyaks set up from Jon this past summer, best move I ever made, really makes fishing much more pleasurable. He's the best to deal with, he goes out of his way to make sure your pleased with your purchase, this is the 5th yak I've gotten from him. His store is off rt46, go west on clinton rd about 1/4 mile on the right.

speaking of motors, I really like the hobie drive system. since I'll be yaking alone and unable to leave a drop off vehicle do you think the motor would be powerful enough to return me to my launch site against the average current in the raritan? since they've been removing dams it's made the areas between them more accessible for yaks. unfortunately after a motorcycle accident my left wrist is held together with a titanium plate and 10 screws so any help getting back to launch is a blessing.

A little pricey but you get the motor with it.

I looked into this one a couple yrs ago...
Most of the reports i got were that , the motoring
part was second to none , but once you stopped the motor to fish, the
handling and manuvering with a paddle was absolutely horrible..Just what i heard..

A few yrs back there was a kayak in the development stages that had
two corkscrew type blades that were recessed on left and right side of the yak hull...It supposedly could reverse, and turn on a dime...I totally forget what it was called , or the company name....Apparently there were some very detrimental pattent issues and i haven't seen anything like it since then...I heven't exactly been actively looking for it either...

If anyone has seen anything like and could pass on the info, it would be gr8ly appreciated

Guys, I am pretty sure that Jon, from the kayak fishing store will be at a small outdoor show this weekend in the Parsippany PAL building on Baldwin road. I am guessing that it won't be crazy like the bigger shows and it would be a good time to talk with him and get all your questions answered.
