Fishing From Small Boats

Fishing from small boats is an international pasttime that provides opportunities for anybody from any social or economic situation to enjoy time on the water. Small boats of all shapes and sizes are found on our lakes, rivers and ponds year round. The reasons for owning and fishing from small boats are as varied as the people who own them, and range from economic to just plain preference.

When someone mentions using a small boat, it conjurs up images of pulling a flat bottom boat out of the mud and sitting in the leaking aluminum hull while plying shallow stumps and bushes for fish that inhabit these type waterholes. But on this site, you'll find that fishing from small boats is more than just a mudhole experience. With a carefully rigged flatbottom boat, canoe or kayak, you can do some serious fishing on some serious bodies of water. And while the pond experience will be included because of it's value to those with small boats, fishing from small boats in lakes of all sizes and types are discussed on this web site.
