Heck yea Proline, I love it! But I never tried it out of a canoe, I tried standing up in one of those once & well, nevermind...but I had a lil "runabout" till a couple years ago & got into a bunch of fish every Spring. I haven't got as much shootin in since I sold it, but stalkin em from the bank is great fun too! I always wanted a big old 'gator'gar, shot (missed more) nuthin but small ones so far...if anyone hasn't tried this they're missing out on "boatloads" of fun!!
