Ultraskiff is the buzz in personal fishing boat circles

CORRECTION:  The White Elephant stores do not carry the Ultraskiff.

FISHING — First there was the float tube, then the personal pontoon, kayaks equipped for fishing and stand-up paddleboards… the sudden rush of open water in the region has some anglers thinking about fishing boats and the options are mind-boggling.

There’s even an origami folding canoe coming out.

If you’re looking for a personal fishing vessel, yet another option has surfaced and stayed afloat in the past few years.

Ultraskiff has come up with a hard-shell round boat that can be rolled to the water and equipped with an electric trolling motor to access fishing water. It’s not for everybody at 6 feet in diameter and 123 pounds. And this is not an endorsement.  But it’s worth investigating.
