Belly boats for fishing from the water
Fishing from a belly boat gives you direct contact with the water and lets you reach spots that are difficult to fish from the bank. Belly boats are popular with predator anglers, trout anglers and mobile anglers who want a compact, quiet way to explore a lake, canal or gravel pit.
What is belly boat fishing?
A belly boat is an inflatable craft that you sit in while moving with fins. Most models have strong air chambers, a comfortable seat and storage pockets for tackle. Because you move quietly, you can approach fish with less disturbance than from a larger boat.
What do you need?
A basic belly boat setup usually includes the boat itself, fins, a life jacket, suitable clothing and the right rods and lures. For active predator fishing, combine your belly boat with predator fishing hooks, predator leaders and traces and suitable landing nets.
Choosing the right belly boat
Pay attention to stability, carrying capacity, seat height, storage space and attachment points for accessories. A stable V-shaped model tracks well, while extra storage pockets are useful for tackle boxes, tools and spare clothing.
