If your sporting plans call for a lot of gear, tackle, decoys, and a dog, the Kingfisher is your canoe. It's a great boat for catching sharks and snook in the no motor zones of the Everglades or just taking th ekids fishing for blue gills at the lake. This recreational hull is extremely stable and very comfortable for larger paddlers. You can easily get in and out with your wadres on and there's no need to worry about stability when shooting out of this canoe. It's two feet longer than the Fisherman and has more capacity, but at 16 feet it's still easy to maneuver.
