Overview

Anglers who frequently hop in and out of their boats or prefer to fish unobstructed will love the versatility of the Oxbow 85’s fully open bow design. Purpose-built for fishing lakes, ponds and flatwater, its lightweight portability makes it easy to access harder-to-reach waters in comfort and stability, challenging the status quo of where an angler can fish.
