Because if you do have the water deep enough it is a dream. And if you don't, pull out the paddle and it's like any other kayak. I guarantee I have caught more fish because I bought my hobie

I totally understand buying things that are nice because it makes them easier to use. Ergo, you catch more fish because you fish more often.

The deal with the pro angler is for not much more money you could get a Gheenoe w/ an outboard. If you shop around you could probably buy one for less than a Hobie. It will draft about the same as the PA and has all the same advantages as a small poling skiff. Best part is, you don't have to strap a dozen rods to an old milk crate, wear crocs, or take forever at the boat ramp

I much prefer redfishing. I love sneaking into a pond like a ninja.

If this is what you like to do, I highly suggest trying it on a poling skiff with a fly rod.
