In Response To: Building a fishing boat - recommendations? (Brian Hanks)

I flyfish also, but not from my kayak. I think a boat that is fun to paddle would be too unstable to cast from. Have you considered using the paddle and rescue float as an outrigger for stability?
I plan to get a plastic boat for the rivers this summer, but just use it to get to places to fish, then get out and wade the river.
