@@MuahMan don't get me wrong, I've been in several lure 11.5, 10s, and the lure ii with the center pod and it's good but I like being able to pull the cord up and the motor is out of the way. In the river, the rudder option is the way to go. You won't have to worry too much about hitting rocks with it either as much as you would with the .motor sitting under the pod.
The kayak by itself is fairly heavy so I would say it depends on how shallow it is. I actually like my 11.5 in the river, but this kayak is heavier and a little harder to steer, but I would say it depends on how shallow it gets.
@@jonping8 Thanks! I live close to the Susquehanna in PA and it’s generally about 4-5 feet unless you hit a deeper pool. But the current isn’t usually too bad at that height.
@@300hiker awesome. I live at the lake and I have the over drive with mine. Even though my son has his own kayak, we can always fish out there together in the lure ii. It has a ton of room for sure.
Where is your Bixby motor? In place of where the peddle would be? NVM, just saw it at 5:40.
I love having it back there, you get so much more control than in the center with the Beaver Tail.
@@jonping8 Ahhh, good to know. I was leaning towards the center!

nice
Thanks
Even looking at a Lire myself. Did you feel like it was too much for a smaller river?

@@300hiker ah that sounds like it would be great for that.
@@jonping8 plus we have some smaller lakes it would be perfect for as well!
