The All New Helium Fly Fishing Drift Boat by Pavati Coming Soon!
Sneak Peek - Helium
Although we can't say too much about it just yet, we've asked our customers what else that they would like to see from us and overwhelmingly the response was a drift boat that was super lightweight and with lower sides for fly fishing. So, you've asked for it, and you've got it. Stay tuned for the release date. We are currently accepting pre-orders.
Pavati Marine is a manufacturer of aluminum drift boats and powerboats, but even more than that, we pride ourselves as being experienced anglers who enjoy helping others to learn about the great outdoors by providing information & education with fishing news, reviews and advice.
Since 2002, Kyle Buschelman has owned and operated Willamette Valley Outfitters, offering salmon and steelhead fishing excursions as well as guided elk and big horn sheep hunts throughout Oregon. The latest addition to Kyle's boat collection is his new custom designed and built Pavati Destroyer power boat. This has enabled them to offer a wider variety of fishing trips on bodies of water other than those that they typically utilize their Pavati drift boats on.

Fishing Opportunities: Several area lakes and ponds will be stocked this week, including Emigrant Reservoir, Expo Pond, Fish Lake and Lake Selmac. Recent rains and high water levels should get the spring Chinook bite going on the lower Rogue River. Winter steelhead fishing continues to be good on the middle and upper Rogue, with a few Chinook up as far as the Grants Pass area.
I bought the 17' Warrior 1 1/2 years ago and love it. I owned a 16' custom built glass boat for 21 years and have rowed several different make of boats in my life time. By far, the Pavati is the easiest to row, plus now that I'm getting older, the doors are sweet for getting in and out. And the best thing about getting this boat is that it was my wife's idea...and she added $3000 dollars more to it then I was going to - sweet!
Got the boat on the water today. Rowed 20 plus miles in 4 hours. High water. From 4500 Cfs to 10,000 Cfs. Two different rivers. Started out on the roaring fork. Ended up on the Colorado. Stereo system does rock out out. Boat handled like a dream. Took another experienced oars men with me. He said it handled the best he has ever felt. Felt like rock stars on the river. Lots of looks and the boat definitely was the best on the river!
"To go fishing is the chance to wash one's soul with pure air, with the rush of the brook, or with the shimmer of sun on blue water. It brings meekness and inspiration from the decency of nature, charity toward tackle-makers, patience toward fish, a mockery of profits and egos, a quieting of hate, a rejoicing that you do not have to decide a darned thing until next week. And it is discipline in the equality of men - for all men are equal before fish."
