The 16 can be paddled solo but you need a cooler or some kind of weight up front. http://www.lwnog.com/forum/index.php Thats the Native owner's forum, thats the best place for the question imo.

I use the revo inshore reels. I replaced all of my daiwa coastal reels after I tried the revo. there is a price difference though.

The inshore doesn't have magnets thats a good thing for saltwater imo.

good writeup on that page

Mine did the same thing.

How do you keep your hooks looking so new? Most of my red hooks have turned silver. Also not a spot of corrosion anywhere on your lures? Have a secret?

Tilapia are easy on the bed. Use a turd fly. Bill at Bill Jackson's tied some for me. Its a brown thingy on a small hook lol, fuzzy pipe cleaner looking. I found black works the best.

Yeah Suriname looks awesome, and the price isnt bad either. The midnight sun Alaska trip looks great also.

Im not single, I have the coolest wife on the planet. I assume she will go with me

I grew up hunting Pike and musky but Ive never got that 45" musky, so that is a dream. But its also something I will probably have a chance at later. Two years ago my best friend and myself went to Quetico national park in Canada for week of back country paddling. It was amazing, that is actual...

Im headed to leech lake next friday. I may have a report to follow up yours. I might have to post my 7 day canoe expedition in Quetico also.

LoL never realized how small I make that boat look!
