{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Watercraft for apartment dwellers

Inflatable SUP is a good option. Bring a cooler and cast from a seated position if you find it isn't quite stable enough for casting. I do not advise using one in areas of strong current though, they get spun around too easily. But for lakes and slower creeks and rivers, they're pretty awesome.

I use one made by this company, they often have some sale packages that are an incredible deal:

Being able to deflate it and roll it up into a backpack is amazingly convenient.

Hi all, I know there have been a few threads about kayaks and the such, but I was curious for folks' thoughts on fishing watercraft that are compact enough for city living specifically. For example, I've been intrigued by the Oru Kayak. It's super expensive but folds up into something I could store in the trunk of my car or in a closet at home. 

I've contemplated stand-up paddle boards,too. I've only been an SUP once and it took me a bit to get used to it (I fell off a couple times) and am not sure how it'd be too fish off one, especially in places with current and rocks and riffles. The one I used was on a calm reservoir. That said, I've never fished in a kayak, either. Only canoes and rowboats.

In terms of use, I was thinking I'd use it primarily for ponds and rivers (upper Potomac/Shenandoah in the summer). Not looking to do anything extreme--just looking to cover more water.

Thanks!
