well i got my new hobie outback today ..
i weighed up the options between this and the Revolution and went for added atability over the dryer ride .
seeing ive never used a pedal kayak until this one arrived today i took it to the local marina to test it out ... loved it :)
nice and fast .. and stable enough i can stand up in it with ease on flat water .. now to go to hamlin bay and get me some salmon :)

That's a good looking little rig. I watched some you tube of a fella up at Gnaraloo fishing out of one.
Love the West!

looks like a great salmon
looks like a great salmon hunter. good in the bay as well . going to get nice and fit with that new toy.
remember, the first fish you catch on the tub goes straight back and that will give you good luck

Looks great, and im jealous:D
After paddle kayaking around penguin island the other day and seeing a 55cm+ kgw in a sand patch in <2mtrs last week. I went straight home and started looking at hobie kayaks.
Bit out of my price range at the moment but, something to aim for.

Nice rig there Clint. Have thought about getting one myself for quiet sometime too. Be good to hear your personnel reviews on using it down that way.
