Too bad you aren't closer. I am in the process of selling 2 Hobie Pro Anglers and a trailer. They are amazing to fish out of using the mirage drive. I had a Native slayer propel as well and between the two I stuck with Hobie. I am only selling as I need room to support the new bass boat that I just got. If you were closer I would let you try them out! It takes a little time adapting to kayak fishing (understanding how wind affects you was a big one) but once figured out it is a ton of fun.
