Is it Tricky Fishing From A Paddle Boat?

Question

i will have my rod, and a soft side tackle box.

Answer 1

I think the fishing part would be fine, but once you catch a fish it could be tricky to bring it into the boat.  Most paddle boats don't really have a lot of room in them, and with the molded seats you can't really stand up or move around much.

Answer 2

As long as you prepare well, it will be more than fine. I fish in a one man kayak, which is probably smaller than your paddle boat. Keep everything tidy and organized to save headaches and only take the gear you need.

Also take water as you will be paddling and can be quite strenuous and you probably won't want to go out out on a windy day as this make rowing 100000000000000000000000000000 times harder.

Take a net as well so its a lot easier to bring the fishes you will catch in to the boat. No boat = more stealth = more fish.

Answer 3

Very very tricky.Me and a friend were trolling for bass in a paddle boat and I got a pike.What an adventure that was!It is very difficult and I would say if your not experienced with that place and every thing about dont go.Don't fish in the paddle boat if theres sharks,musky,gar or other huge fish.They could easily pull/tip it.This is just my opinion but If you do please remember to be careful.Always have a buddy with you and wear a life jacket.
