Default Re: Thoughts and Impressions of the 07 Hobie Outback Mirage

You confirmed my suspicions about the Hobie and paddling. I'm a freshwater fisherman, primarily. Hydrilla is an exotic aquatic weed brought in by the aquarium trade...what's new... It grows thick in water up to about 12 feet, depending on water clarity. Usually, the thickest mats are in 5 ft or less. It gets so thick in places that alligators will lie on it sunning themselves. On the other hand, it can be great cover for bass, catfish, and other fish. Baitfish love to hide in it, the predators hang out in and near it for ambush.
