My introduction to that fun little toy was a new owner who kept running up and down the little rapids and into the best section of the part of the Hooch I fish regularly. Rather like a motocross bike on a hiking trail. Not the fault of the boat but the owner screwed up me fishing the best pool on my float back to my pickup. I realize the guy had as much right to be there as I did but the guys in paddled yaks tend to be polite, and even if they want to paddle back up and run the rapids a couple of times they don't ruin it for the fishermen. It would be fun, but it is to a kayaker whay a motocross cycle would be to a mountain biker. IMHO
