Swift River Fly Fishing is pleased to make available this fine selection of wooden canoes that possess the stability to make them highly suitable for fly fishing and in some cases water fowling as well. They are the perfect compliment to fine split cane rods. They are all suitable for use on ponds, lakes and slower moving rivers. They are all of cedar and epoxy construction, very light, strong and durable.
