Looking good, Kent! cheers Much better than I have been doing. How do you like the Adios? Does it catch a lot of wind? You got a PowerPole mini on that thing? Looking at getting a Diablo.

Jagg, Diablo makes a skeg for about $150 that eliminates much of the wind issues...unfortunately for me I fish slop so any type of rudder is a hindrance. I have not added any after market items FF, power pole, LED's etc...As for as getting one I cant say enough great things about the boats. My son Jake has his own Diablo which is the Amigo...12.5' he is a larger size man and is able to stand and fish as stable as my adios and for a lot less $$$...

Here in Alabama, dinks are about all I'm finding as well.

Can't beat catching Bluegill on the fly. Nicely done!

I appreciate it, Kent. I'm told that Diablo makes The Best river fishing SOT kayak out there, which is what I plan to primarily do. But, I want something that can handle the lakes and ponds on occasion also. I was looking at the NuCanoe Frontier 12, but I hear they are a beast to handle in the wind. I've tested the NuCanoe a couple times, but only once on a still water and the wind was pretty still. Thanks again!
