Yes, it looks pretty ridiculous to me too, but the reviews are all 5 stars. I don't get it...

It’s a slick little watercraft.  You guys probably wouldn’t have a whole lotta use for it but for small water bass fishing it looks like it’ll get the job done.  With the ability to stand up comfortably and  operate a trolling motor at your side it’s like being able to fish the bow on your own bass boat.....without the cost  boat.  Having options isn’t a bad thing.

It's a lot of $! You can get a nice small and light kayak for that price and have more uses than this floating dinner plate.

That bass in the photo sure looked more like a Tuna and if you can catch that in a back water lake I’ll shut up about the goofy looking plastic wok!

If reading comprehension wasn't my strong suit I'd just keep my mouth shut period.  Clearly the point of my post was that it has its merits, I don't think anyone with half a brain thought I was talking about the marketing pics on the cabelas site. 

So I'm clear.....if you fish bass (this is a non cabelas photo reference, it simply implies that if you happen to be a fisherman that likes to pursue largemouth bass), then this may be a viable option cause it replicates the experience of being on the bow of a bass boat (in bass fishing you're standing all day, it gives you a good line of sight, allows you to target cast easily and you can have a trolling motor at your side for convenient maneuvering). 

Let me know if you didn't understand that, I can scratch up some crayons and draw you a picture.
