Client Reviews

I purchased the 8 foot Puffin this spring online and it was delivered to me the next day. I did not get the opportunity to try it out until last week and put it through its paces over 6 long days and 12 lakes, some big, some small and some seriouse weather conditions. It was outstanding and exactly what I wanted,and hoped for when I ordered it. Easy to assemble and the lightest of my four pontoon boats by far. My compadres were swearing at me by the end of the trip as they sweated loading and unloading their boats from the roofrack to the lake and back and I could carry and lift my Puffin with no effort what so ever even with the sidebags loaded up. The perfect boat for stillwaters and stands up to rough treatment. If you are looking for a light, sturdy boat with none of the annoying bells and whistles this is it. My only critique would be the padded seat which I found to cause pressure on the back of my thighs, probably because of my height, 5' 11". I removed the padding quite easily and was immediatelly rewarded with a comfortable ride regardless of kicking upwind all day. Thanks again for outstanding service and a quality, economical boat. I will be back for more.

What a find! Had a great time with Bill, my instuctor teaching me in the rain and then taking the practical to the water for the last part of the lesson. Both owners are friendly and easy going, their place is easy to find and the rod I used was one of theirs...may go back to buy one. I know I want to do more lessons too. Thank you gentlemen, it was great to meet you both. Ann S.

A big thank you to Joe and Bill who helped me choose a great boat for a great price. These guys are all about customer service. Not only did they set up a boat for me to view on two seperate ocassions but they were also good about a layaway purchase. I am happy with the performance of the boat as well as the overall construction and materials. Great value!

In January, I purchased the 9\' Hawk and finally got to use it last weekend. I was considering a Bucks Bag or an Outcast Discovery 9IR. I am glad I chose the Hawk.

The boat was solid, easy to put together and the handling was great on the water. I also received a thank you card. I cannot remember any fishing company ever doing that.

I will definately recommend to my friends.

I recently purchased the 8' Tern when it was on sale. Best prices on an aluminum frame 'toon. Used it a couple of times since. No fish but it was nice to be out. The boat was solid. Easy to put together. Overall, I love it!

I will need to get a few accessories - I would like to order an anchor, mount and the double fly holder. I will probably come by over the next few weeks.

I bought my Eagle in October and have been out about 30 times before Xmas and love it.

Best prices on flies in the lower mainland!! Thanks for letting me blow $100 today on them :)

Joe & Bill have been awesome with anything I have asked or needed.

I like that they do not have the middleman to deal with, thus passing along great pricing and a great product.

I bought the Egret 9 over the holidays with the intention of using it this spring. I ended up taking it out in January on a medium sized river. Good pontoon shape, felt very stable on moving water, even when taking it through some descent/heavy white water, it held up great. Great customer service, Fishlander management drove the boat right to me, pretty much on the river!

Pros: Pontoon shape, durability of pontoons so far so good, easy assembly, tons of pockets for supplies.

Cons: Need a rod holder to strap rods down while drifting and oar locks are fixed to the frame, kind of worry I'll snap an oar on a rock in the shallows.

Other than that, good boat and good price. I'm happy with the purchase!

I have been wanting to buy a pontoon for quite some time now. I couldn\'t commit to spending the large amounts of money for other boats on the market. When I saw their pre-season sale, I pulled the trigger on the Osprey. I received it 4 days after I ordered on line. It came in a large box. What quick service! It took me some time to put the boat together but I am sure after a few times, I will be much quicker.

Pros - great price, good quality stitching on the pontoons, solid frame, comes with a carrying bag and anchor

Cons - tiny repair kit, lousy instruction manual, does not come with a rope for anchor
