Looks like a pretty decent little board. Maybe a bit too much stuff on the bow for my taste, but I'm sure they'll sell.

I think the stuff on the front is removable.

Got on one last fall and they are pretty sweet. The thing up front is to hold your paddle upright there's a slot it will slide into. I'm going to grab one from Jackson for a day if anyone want to try it out we can switch out i have a Big Tuna we can bring.

I saw one at the Tennessee Boat and Fishing show Friday. I've not paddled the Jackson's model, but I have paddled a Hobie Paddle Board, and I don't want anything to do with it. It's too much of a workout for me, slower than a kayak, turned slower, and can't pack as much crap on it. There is no seat, it's made to constantly stand (I have bad knees) you can place a cooler on it if you want to sit. The plastic thing/paddle holder is removeable. The Jackson Superfishal is HEAVY 69lbs, that's really close to the weight of a 12' kayak. I have seen one video of someone placing a 2 stroke motor on one, and that was interesting.

You're right. I've been completely wrong, SUPs are only good for hot chicks to do yoga on. Guess I'll have to sell mine, since I just use mine to catch little tiny fish...

I'm not saying that a Paddle Board is useless for fishing, I'm just saying from my experience it wouldn't fit my style.

But, I do see a market for it and looks like others do to.
