Can handle anything the river throws at it
“RioCraft makes a stable, easy rowing boat that tracks well, turns on a dime, and can put the fisherman anywhere they want to be on the river. Despite its narrow profile, the Madison is spacious, sturdy, and comfortable. It may look fishy, and it is. The Madison by RioCraft meets the fisherman's needs and can handle anything the river throws at it.“
