NuCanoe Model(s):
NuCanoe 12 – OD Green

Favorite NuCanoe Activity:
Floating the rivers with the fly rod. I can stand and walk around the NuCanoe for the whole trip. It really gives you a better perspective than you’d get from a bigger boat.

Why did you choose NuCanoe?
I love the versatility of the boat – that is what drew me to the NuCanoe first. I fish many different bodies of water and fish in many different styles (fly fishing, conventional fishing, etc…) I can set up the NuCanoe to match the way I want to fish that day.

Best Things about my NuCanoe:
If I had to pick just one thing about the NuCanoe that I like best, it would have to be the stability. I can fish with others in the NuCanoe and we can both be standing with no problems. You really have a lot of confidence after a few minutes of using the NuCanoe.

Lesson Learned:
I was fishing the river with a buddy and we stopped to fish a dam more thoroughly. He got out of the boat and I was in the back. Without the weight of him in the front, water was coming into the hole in the back of the boat. I was too busy fishing to realize what was going on, and by the time I did, the boat was almost completely flooded. I still had no problem paddling across the river with a boat full of water! We dumped the water, got back in and were on our way.
