Greetings fellow "Kayakers" I'm yet another new member to this very good site that is very informative and has berleyed me up to get myself a "YAK" of some sort, so I can get out on the water and catch some serious fish over here in Geraldton WA and other Midwest and Gascoyne waters. I am looking at getting out to some of the reefs along this stretch of coast and hopefully catching specimens such as Westralian Dhufish, Tailor, Sambos, Spanish Mackeral etc - nothing piddly, just big fish
I have been checking out the Hobie Outback Fisherman as a suitable craft to do this in, as I like the Mirage drive pedal set up and the all round look of these fine craft :wink:
My West Oz compatriot - Chopper has recently taken the plunge and bought a Hobie and hopefully I will be able to get one myself soon too :!:
Anyway, from what I can gauge from posts here, the Hobie is very stable on the water and hard to tip, which is a big plus. Any other tips or advice regarding Hobies will be greatly appreciated folks :wink:

Cheers

Fishy

Hi Fishy and welcome to the forum. Most of the Hobies do most things really well. I think of the Outback as the ultimate allrounder when it comes to a fishing platform. Good luck with the search. Steve.
