Look at all three of his videos. This would be the only way I would kayak for miles up and down the river. LOL

There was a thread not too long ago on TKF where someone added a weed-eater "outboard" to their kayak. Of course, you have to register it then.

Just get yourself a small trolling motor and forget about ruining a perfectly good weed eater.


Just one more cast!

Way too loud and I wouldn't want no stinking TX number on my kayak. I get upstream in my kayak without the need for such nonsense.

I don't go too fast but I go pretty far.

Defeats the purpose of a kayak IMO. since purchasing my drifted I've only used my power boats a hand full of times. My yaks have never left me stranded or broke down.

Last time we went down the brazos I'd bet we saw atleast 6 canoes without registration number but had some kind of motor. They just risking it?

I have been to the brazos probably 15 times and I have never seen a game warden or any type of officer there.
