Does everyone pedal? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

You should be faster on a fresh water lake as compared to the open ocean.

I just took my kayak to a lake last month for the first time and I was shocked at how much faster it was on a calm fresh water lake.

And instead of struggling to stay in one spot over structure like on the ocean I had trouble with overshooting my intended spot

The kayak seemed like it would never come to a stop on fresh water. It felt like I used surf wax on the bottom of the kayak or something

A couple pedals and it just kept gliding and gliding
