Light Tackle
Shallow Water Fish Hunting.
The newest Aquisition in the quest for the most furtive fly and light tackle fishing, is a Maverick Mirage 17'2". Purchased last summer, she has received many cosmetic and mechanical upgrades. Including a new Yamaha 4-stoke motor and hydraulic jackplate for added performance and shallow water capabilities.
The quietest way to enter the strike zone is with a push pole. Just a gentle nudge and the Maverick glides virtually inaudible in less than a foot of water, blending into the tranquility of the back country.
Her broad foredeck is well suited for fly casting and stripping line, but light tackle anglers will also enjoy the stealthy approach and vantage point of her pointy end.
