General Talk / Re: Pedal Drive kayak question
« on: June 20, 2021, 09:00:40 AM »
Thank you everyone for your input!  Very insightful.  Seems I am over thinking breaking a pedal drive and should be more concerned getting the props tangled in weeds.  I definitely want a pedal drive for faster hands free fishing. The motor part is because I remember how windy it gets in afternoons, and I want to enjoy the fishing more than the workout...

General Talk / Pedal Drive kayak question
« on: June 18, 2021, 09:50:45 AM »
I'm new and joined this forum to learn about kayaking.  My plan is to lazily fish freshwater (delta or lakes).  To that end, I'm hoping to buy a pedal/prop kayak (instant reverse + price  benefit) and add a motor (Bixpy to rudder?)

My biggest concern as I'm shopping is damaging the pedal drive if I drift or crash into branches underwater or drive into a super shallow area (Russian river, beaches etc.)  For that reason alone, I'm leaning towards the Jackson brand because the pedal drive kicks up.  I can't afford a Hobie with mirage 360. 

Hoping the experience from this group can provide guidance as to whether my fear of breaking the pedal drive is real or imaginary...

Hi All:

I joining  this forum to learn about kayak fishing.  A majority of my fresh water fishing was in the Delta (Paradise Marina) on a bass boat.  My fishing buddy with the boat no longer fishes, so I'm considering a pedal kayak for fishing lakes and the delta close to SF.
