    13 foot Gheenoe they are fiberglass but super stable but if you plan on putting a trolling motor on them you will have to register with SCDNR.
    You can't catch fish from the couch.

    Yes, not quite as easily as a canoe though.

    Also don’t forget after you register it with DNR you have to pay taxes on it. On my kayak it is about $35 a year.

    Old town guide 160. It is very stable. It will need some support in the back of a pickup

    Depends on the bed length of your truck. Canoe is 16 feet long. I use a support that is mounted in the hitch on the truck that extends from the rear and helps support the canoe. Unless you carry it on the top of truck.

    Back in 1979 the wife and I purchased our first 17' Osagian aluminum canoe for fishing. It was wide and stable. We used a 5 HP gas motor or electric motor when possible. It paddled easily for shorter runs. Three adults bass fished on a small electric motors only lake without any problems. We also fished the local creeks with this set up. I could fish standing up or bow fish without any issues. We sold this canoe and had 2 others (can't remember the brands) that we didn't like so sold them and bought another 17' Osagian. We still have it but we're getting too old to use it.
