Fantastic for Bass Fishing
“Just bought the Tandem Adventurer….fantastic!! As a bass fisherman, this is better than any boat I have ever owned. I was wondering if you had promotional stickers. I would like to match up my truck with the boat with a couple of NuCanoe stickers. Do you have such things?”

Love My Fishing NuCanoes
“I’ve been a kayak fisherman for over five years, over which time my sit-on-top kayak has enables me to catch over two thousand bass. Over the last two years, I’ve spent countless hours searching the Internet for a new fishing kayak that would be much more comfortable for my 66 year old back.
I firmly believe that the NuCanoe is the most versatile fishing kayak available. In fact, I was so happy with my 10 foot model that I purchased a 12 model for those times when I want to fish with a friend. If you study the photos, you can see that I’ve equipped my modular multi-mount with a depth finder, transducer holder, battery, and GPS unit. I have rod holders behind my swivel seat for extra rods, plus a rod holder for storing the rod while I’m removing hooks from a fish, and a trolling rod holder. The threaded mounting holes are useful for more than the accessories available from NuCanoe. I mount a small tackle box or small plastic storage box at one point to keep my lures, plastics, hooks, etc., within easy reach. The useable space exceeds that in any other kayak. I’ve modified two canoe/kayak hoists to store both NuCanoes in my garage. I transport my NuCanoe to and from the small lakes and ponds that I fish in the rear of my Ford Ranger. The truck width is perfect.
If you have any questions on what, how, or why I equipped my NuCanoes as shown in the photos, please feel free to e-mail me at ziomekk@bellsouth.net. I may be able to save you some time and aggravation by explaining my approach to equipping my NuCanoes. I purchased both of my NuCanoes from Bryan Brown at Carolina Outdoors. I’m very happy and satisfied with my fishing NuCanoes.”

Well Designed Boat
“I’ve had my 12′ NuCanoe for 7 months now and have enjoyed every minute while fishing from it. It is a well designed boat that is reliable and fun. Job well done.”

Fantastic Comfort and Stability
“I bought a 12′ Tandem NuCanoe a few weeks ago and just took it out for the first time. Fantastic! My wife and I fished in great comfort – our old kayaks were wet and uncomfortable. We rented kayaks in Florida before making our decision. I tried Native Ultimate 14′ and found it uncomfortable to stand in and barge like to paddle, I tried Wilderness Tarpon, and would never attempt to stand in it, though it handled well. I paddled a NuCanoe up and down WikiWachi river (with the Manatees) – even stood up and paddled – and decided that would be the boat for me. ”
“If you fish from your NuCanoe and don’t have a swivel seat, you really need to look into one. They are fantastic.”
Great for the Family

“My husband saw these at the local boat store and knew he wanted one for himself. We were looking at getting a 16 ft canoe for recreational paddling for our family of five. After looking at those huge canoes and trying to figure out how to attach it to the roof of our 4-door truck we decided on two 12 ft NuCanoes and LOVE that both fit in the truck bed with room to spare! Have used them once so far, and love the fact that there are so many options, from being able to move the seats around, to the 2 of us being able to handle these boats quite easily. The adults and the kids all love our new boats and look forward to a summer of fishing, camping and touring all the bayous and creeks around Louisiana and Texas that we can!”

Best Christmas Present Ever
“My daughter bought a NuCanoe for me as a Christmas Present. What a shock it was to say the least. We have enjoyed Kayaking for several years and she thought it would be great to get me one of your boats. All I can tell you now is that I am sold. We actually took the 12′ boat out for a run on the 27th, as I wanted to get a new life jacket before I took it out.
I was very impressed by the handling and the easy in which we were able to handle the boat. It was indeed a very windy day, not to mention cold (about 34 degrees) The water was very choppy to say the least. We finally got to a little cove. One that I had only been able to see from a distance on an ATV for the last 30 years. This time we saw it from the water. It was unreal. We got a little brave in the coves as we had some relief from the wind and choppy water. We went shallow and were very please with the draw the boat took. When we should have been stuck it was very easy to “scoot” the boat over the sand bars.
This was with out a doubt one the best Christmas presents I have ever gotten!”

Excellent for Fishing on the Rivers
“I purchased a NuCanoe about a year ago. I am absolutely delighted with the handling of the NuCanoe as a fishing vessel. I mainly fish the rivers for Smallmouth here in central Illinois, I have caught many nice smallmouth in places that I would not have been able to wade and get to. Thank you for coming out with a nice… watercraft.”

Smallmouth Bass Fishing in a NuCanoe
Mark L. in Nashville, TN
“Just made my maiden voyage in my new NuCanoe down my very skinny water river; I LOVE IT! Even though I had to get out and drag the boat a few times it was so shallow I had a blast christening my new vessel. Any other craft would have to drag at least as many times most much more. Caught several smallmouth which made the trip that much better since that is the main reason I purchased the boat. Can’t say enough about this rig. What plans do you guys have for other designs soon? If they’re as well thought out as the adventurer I can’t wait.”
Good Times Catching Fish
Bruce & Camille, Arlington, WA
“I purchased on of your NuCanoe Adventurers last month and have been pleased with it. It has helped me catch a lot of fish and provided my wife and I a lot of enjoyment. If you would send me some of your cards I could probably help you sell some of your boats. I get asked frequently about it and where I purchased it.”
Catch More Fish in a NuCanoe
G.M., Knoxville, TN.
“I just purchased an Adventurer NuCanoe 2 weeks ago. I have already caught more fish from this kayak than I have the past 2 years from a bass boat. I love it.”
NuCanoes @ YMCA Camp Dudley
Matt Rusch, Yakima, WA
“We had a fantastic summer with our NuCanoes! Dudley serves a variety of ages from 5 – 18 and beyond, and most of our summer campers do not have much experience on the water. The NuCanoes dramatically cut down the amount of times our lifeguard needed to go out in the rescue boat. Before it was to retrieve swamped campers that had tipped the canoe, now it is only if they get carried away by the wind. The learning curve is much faster, and the boats are infinitely more forgiving. Beyond making a model that would have three seats, I can’t see one thing wrong with it. While it is a bit heavier than some of our traditional canoes, the added weight helps on our lake where we can get pretty heavy afternoon winds.
Thanks for a great addition to our camp! ”
NuCanoe @ Moss Bay Rowing Club
Jim Clark – President Moss Bay Rowing Club in Seattle, WA
“Truth be known, we have been waiting for years to have something like NuCanoe evolve. I don’t mean to sound melodramatic but I think you have a very unique product, that will likely be very successful in the marketplace. It will really benefit our program.”
Soccer Team Fun
Last weekend, I took 6 high school girls from my soccer team out on four NuCanoes. Our three hours on the lake was an enjoyable adventure. The fact that we did not have to be thinking about a possible capsize allowed us to have fun talking, laughing, eating, and racing as we ventured to all parts of the lake. The afternoon was highlight by our swimming session on the middle of the lake where we jumped off the boats, re-entered them easily in the lake, and then tried to tip a boat, but rather just filled it with water to watch it continue to float! The girls in attendance want to go out again with their whole team!

“The Adventurer arrived quickly and was in the water the same day. The design is great. Not only does it look good on the water, it is easy to paddle, very stable, and tracks and well. The biggest problem I have with it is I can’t keep my wife Jeni out of it. She loves it more than me and believe me that is a lot. I have owned and paddled lots of canoes and kayaks including a couple when I was on the TV show Survivor Thailand and I have never enjoyed one this much. Keep up the good work. “
