mods for river running

[sandfly]

removed locking mech and added 2 springs to keep prop in down position, then added a pull rope to lift it over stumps and rocks. finished the standup setup so I can run motor while standing up. ready to hit some local rivers for some big fish we hope.

What do you have more time in the yak or the van.What a combo,nice work.Love the steering system for the motor.

I would love to see more pics of the Nu canoe and hear how it works out and what rivers you have had it on. I am looking at something like that. Just enough to fit the dog and I.

The mods look good by the way.

Are you sure you aren't a redneck !!!!!!!!!

Nice setup does your line tangle in it allot ?

 

[sandfly]

nope no tangles, have fished pine and tioga rivers so far. rube Goldberg its not, a lot of guys bare rigging like this for control. found my ideas on you tube. need to get a bigger motor one day, this one is only 10 lbs. max and no reverse. want a 30 lb.. most yakrs put in a pedal steering but I want to stand and steer. yes henry redneck or as we like to call ourselves here ridge runners !
