gas or electric motor
Posted by: xpapy on Apr-27-12 1:42 PM (EST)

I have a 15.4 ft sportsman canoe w a coleman 2.4 stroke and it is great for fishing .. I also have a 15ft coleman canoe that i put a 35 thrust trolling motor on it.. It worked great fishing in the Niagara Falls NY . above the falls by Grand Island.. worked great.
Ive since upgraded to a bigger trolling motor.. However I dont know about riptides and such. all my fishing is freshwater
