Not everyone has a garage or enough storage space for a full-sized kayak. Foldable kayak solve the problem of space in a big way as they can relatively quickly fold into something compact.
Easy to Transport and Store
If I told you my fishing kayak weighs 20 pounds, is only nine feet, eight inches long and has a 275-pound capacity, you would look at me like I just landed from the planet Ork. To tell the truth, the first time I saw the Oru Inlet folding kayak, I thought it arrived to Earth in a giant egg.
Picture this: a kayak made out of translucent corrugated plastic sheets folding like an origami swan. The only accessory is a simple gel seat in the bottom of the cockpit. Unhook several buckles, loosen a bungee cord and the boat collapses to make its own carrying case.
You can also put some folding models on your back and hop on a bus to get to your waterway.
Fishing with Foldable Kayak
Paddling the Inlet was a breeze. The 31-inch-wide boat scoots over the water with a sharp bow and stern keeping the kayak traveling straight. Turning the kayak is easy, even in tight places. At only 20 pounds with a nine-foot, eight-inch waterline, the Inlet will spin in its own length.
Fishing from the Inlet was more of a challenge. Even though had the straps pulled tight and the bulkheads installed, the Inlet is very flexible. feel like the open cockpit causes the boat to be less rigid. Turning around, making a cast and landing a fish caused the boat to flex and twist.
While the sensation was weird, flexing and bending wasn’t unsafe. was able to paddle and fish fine.
Although the Foldable Kayak is lightweight. It can be used occasionally when kayak fishing. But friends who often go to kayak fishing still choose dedicated fishing kayaks.
