That is exactly what I plan to do. Most of the fishing I do in my kick boat is near the shore, and the bass boat seems like the perfect "upgrade" since I can still cast and fish like I am use to, but can cover a lot more water. And I figure I can haul my kick boat out on the bass boat if I want to do a little slow trolling and get some exercise. Just park the boat somewhere and start kicking. Also, I'm looking forward to a little more "society" when fishing, I go out with my buddies a lot in the kick boat, but invariably we find ourselves separated. I like having someone around when fishing, so I can either show them up, or be shown up by them. Either way it makes it more fun.
