Thanks to it’s Snap-Tap system, the Tequila! Angler has the capability of splitting into manageable sections and reassembles in seconds. If you are a fishing enthusiast, the Angler is the one for you as it is stable, safe and not to mention strong. Thanks to its tracking keel, it paddles in a straight line, if this is what you want it to do.

You can have a perfect day only by taking advantage of the AIR Seat and it’s pneumatically adjustable backrest.
