But here's another (qualified*) vote for Wenonah's Adirondak.

Let me further qualify- method rather than watercraft- since another
thread evolved into "oh, he was talking about fishing for a different
species than I am."

I have never once (knowingly) fished for trout from a canoe, nor for
any species in flowing water. My sole prey when paddling are
largemouth bass and bluegill (and any other topwater feeders, the
stray crappie, etc.) in warmwater ponds. As far as I'm concerned,
anchoring a comfortable casting distance from some structure in such a
piece of water and slinging a big garish popper to the bucket mouths
is a perfectly fine way to spend a summer afternoon or evening, and
requires neither standing, nor particular stealth, perhaps the root of
its appeal to me.

However a certain lake in beautiful Iron County, Michigan of which I
am inordinately fond, hosts warmwater species as well as brook trout,
and it is my firm intention to target all of them one of these days.
