Last Sunday's Oregonian had a story in the Sports section about fishing from kayaks.  The story was titled "Pedal power is a great way to fish".  Not sure what the screen name is of the fisherman in the photo but the salmon he's holding represents us very well.  I like the dog too - only on a PA!

NWKA was referenced - it was a good write up and some positive PR for our sport.  Nothing like a little motivation to go out and and get after it -

 Can you post a link to that article please ?
Life is short---live it tall.

Be kinder than necessary--- everyone is fighting some kind of battle.

Sailors may be struck down at any time, in calm or in storm, but the sea does not do it for hate or spite.
She has no wrath to vent. Nor does she have a hand in kindness to extend.
She is merely there, immense, powerful, and indifferent

"A venturesome minority will always be eager to get off on their own,
and no obstacle should be placed in their path;
let them take risk, for God sake, let them get lost, sun burnt, stranded, drowned,
eaten by bears, buried alive under avalanches -
that is the right and privilege of any free American."
--Edward Abbey--

Nice piece. Bill Monroe is a fine outdoor writer.
This paragraph caught my eye:
"Hobie, with several angler-oriented models already, is coming out with more by 2016, said CJ Siebler of Next Adventure in Portland, the local dealer. Other companies are developing their own versions of the mirage propulsion system, he said."
Anyone have a clue on 2016 Hobies?

Actually i was somewhat misquoted in that i was trying to say that I can personally attest to more fishing specific craft being released for 2016 by other manufactures and that there are certainly other pedal drives the market will see jn the next few years.

But as soon as Hobie has somethin new in works they can share we will post it up!
