I'm interested in seeing what others fish on. Boats, Float tubes, Kayaks?

Bank fishers also chime in.

I fish of a tandem kayak. I don't have any pictures but it's one of those yellow bananas.

Well, I started out in a scupper pro kayak. Then I bought my Bass Tracker, TX 17 off of craigslist. Next I got a little crazy and bought a folding Port a Bote to fish for o'io on the flats. Finally, I got really crazy and bought the Flatstalker for the flats. ( Aka , The Answer ) I have caught fish from all of these at the lake. I love catching fish from a kayak, but it is just too hard on windy days.

Nice looking boats. I fished from an older aluminum Tracker back in the early 90's. I never recalled ever seeing sleek bass boats back then.

I bet those two boats turn a few heads.

I fish from dirt!

I would love to have a boat, but I live in an apartment with no place to park/store it. Sucks.

canoe (paddle only), kayak and from the dirt - would love to try float tube someday (sounds kinda nifty). basic canoe is best: very quiet, fast by paddle, easy to carry (cartop) and launch by hand. Best of all, doesn't cost thousand The quietness doesn't spook the fish. put old carpet pieces on bottom to make quieter. Used to clamber & climb all over the place many years ago - scaling the cliffs, i guess you could call it. All i could carry was a an old tin of rubber worms and hooks in the pocket, a small bag of live worms in the other pocket and a five-foot trout rod with a cheap spinning reel on it. B.fromPast: casting rubber worms while standing on a root sticking out of a near vertical dirt cliff that was reached by mountain climbing. (i would never try this today). If no bass there (the bass could be anywhere it seemed), i'd switch to live worm and catch whopper tilapias 20" long or lunker bluegill. In those days (70's), once in a blue moon, would catch a peacock.

I use my 11' Eagle Canoe with an added quick removable outrigger. I run a 3hp outboard motor plenty fast enough for the lake.
