Default I know everyone is talking about ice fishing

I know everyone is talking about ice fishing. But I just tried the Fishcat Rise a couple days ago. This thing is only 8 pounds. I bought it for my wife but I had the chance to try it first.

I appreciate all the love and support.

You're right ... put mine away, that season's over.

Last year I customized mine to sit much higher so my butt isn't in the water, added a decent kayak seat with better back support, moved my storage compartments back about 10", added removable rod holder, oar locks/oars & really enjoy mine, too. With the back pack carrying straps it's easy to get into remote lakes.

That's a sweet setup! Do you happen to have a link to those oar locks? I have Fish Cat 4 and would love to put these on mine too.

Do you find the oar locks work well on it?

Thanks!

Spin .... here you go, link to my past thread, everything you may need is in there & yes it my Zip-Tube had wing's it would fly. The oar locks were $25.00 each the 2 paddles $59.00/both, not a major investment.
