The Catch Kayak Paddle|Adjustable Fiberglass Shaft with Nylon Blades|Lightweight, Adjustable| Perfect for Kayak Fishing, 98.5 inch (250cm) - Arctic Blue - PS1973-00

I love them so much. Works well.

This paddle is an amazing paddle. The handles are very light weight but the actual paddle is extremly durable.We have 2 sit on top kayaks (fishing kayaks). The kayaks came with paddles but they were complete garbage.I bought a Carlisle Magic Angler paddle in a 260cm length but it wasn't available in a 250cm at the time so we held off on the second paddle hoping it would become available. The Carlisle is an amazing paddle and makes kayaking so much more fun. However we couldn't find a 250 cm for my daughter's kayak so whenever we went out I gave her my paddle and I used the one that came with the kayak.We came across this Pelican and decided to give it a try.GLAD WE DID. It is an amazing paddle, very light weight (lighter than my Carlisle) and is every bit as durable.On my Carlisle I wrapped the handle with bicycle handlebar tape which I strongly recommend because it just makes paddling so much more comfortable and for long distances you don't really need gloves or anything like that. I did the same for the Pelican and it does make a world of difference on a long trip.As for performance, it is a perfect paddle. Can't say enough about the weight because on a long trip you can really tell the difference. I used my Carlisle for a mile, then switched to the Pelican and the weight difference, although not much, is really very noticable. The performance is every bit as good even though the actual paddle size compared to my Carlisle is slightly smaller.The Pelican is an overall exceptional paddle and is very affordable and is an excellent upgrade. Although I love my Carlisle paddle, I kind of liked using the Pelican.I read several reviews about this paddle coming with a sticker that wont peel off, but we were lucky and there was no issue with that at all.

This paddle is exactly as advertised. Light weight, strong and attractive.

I sent the first back due to benign broke but the second one was good.

Only complaint is the shaft was dented when I opened the package. But it doesn’t affect my paddling and it’s done it’s job just fine.

This is a mid weight paddle, with exceptional balance and strength. The hook retrieval is an added bonus. If lightweight is what your are looking for, keep looking. It's light but not in a hybrid way.

Great bang for the buck. I was looking for an angling specific paddle and this one works great! I really like the line slot on the blade, it's a great way to follow your line into the weeds and find your lure. Pet peeve!The paddle is light and the blade seems large enough to move my big boat around. and it didn't break the bank. I have a nasty habit of leaving paddles on the beach after a long day of fishing so the $400 carbon paddles aren't for me. I've had this one for a little over a month now!

I purchased this paddle for my single man canoe. I wanted something longer than most paddles but also lightweight and not super spendy. This met all those applications. Great quality for sure.

Perfect length for solo 14 foot prospector canoe. I’m 6’1”” tall and it’s great. Great quality fibergalass handle and plastic blades. Light and well built

Super light, works great, nice drip protection, the only downside is that the finish is so smooth you have to grip it pretty hard to keep it from sliding and my first trip out I got some blisters. Might have to put some grip tape on it, just didn't want to cover the measuring tape initially, however I doubt I will use it much as I stow the paddle when I am reeling and landing fish.

This paddle works great with my catch mode 110. I love the longer size as it makes paddling easy from both the regular and elevated position

As far as mid-grade paddles go, this one deserves high ratings. It is everything it advertises as, and I have no complaints. The only reason I do not give it a 5 * rating is that it could be slightly lighter.

These paddles are fantastic overall.
