We camp generally in remote locations and always near mountain lakes/reservoirs, so fishing is one of our main activities while camping. At least one meal (usually more) includes fresh fish on the menu. It's one thing to fish from the bank but having a boat gives you greater flexibility to cover more water while you fish. And to be honest, it's just more fun. The remote lakes I tend to camp and fish do not allow boat motors or boat launches. Over the years, we've used canoes, light weight aluminum row boats, and even a float tube or two. In the end, we favor using our inflatable pontoon boats. They're light and move on the water with very little effort. The top of my pop up provides the perfect platform to carry my "tooner" when heading to the campsite. My wife loves hers just to get out on the water and row around whether she fishes or not. They really are great fun. I'm adding a picture of my boat and my son's, beached at our favorite campsite. This was taken at North Battle Creek Reservoir near Mount Lassen in Northern California. Does anyone else use these inflatable boats while camping? I'm interested in hearing from others with similar interests - pictures are great as well.
