It’s not a canoe, because my canoe takes two people to get anywhere. That thing is and heavy. It’s not a Kayak because you have nowhere to put the fishing gear.
I want to bring the average amount of fishing gear, and I’d like to bring my 30 lb dog along for the ride.
a row boat is perfect
Row boat ;-D
I’ve seen people use Kayaks for fishing but maybe it depends on the type of fishing you’re doing. How much and what kind of gear are you thinking of bringing?
Are you thinking of a coracle? Which is a circular boat, or an ordinary boat with an electric motor.
take a look at the bass hunter smallboat at cabellas

it could also be a jon boat or an aluminum skiff (oars or trolling motor)
hope this helps
