Modified Ottertail
Built for a Quick Cadence.
The Modified Ottertail is a refined take on the traditional Ottertail, designed for paddlers who prefer a shorter, stubby blade and a quick cadence. Its compact profile moves easily through the water, allowing for quick, efficient strokes without feeling heavy or cumbersome.
The Modified Ottertail is especially well suited to paddlers who like to keep their stroke rate high and their paddle moving. Its stubby blade and smooth, responsive feel make it an excellent choice for paddling efficiently over long distances.
Like all Fishell paddles, every Modified Ottertail is handcrafted and individually tuned to a specific flex, working with the natural characteristics of each piece of wood to create a paddle that feels strong, responsive, and perfectly balanced at the throat.
Made for the way you actually paddle.
Ideal for tandem paddling and canoe tripping, the Modified Ottertail is a great choice for paddlers who value a light, quick, and efficient stroke.
Handcrafted. Individually flexed. Built to paddle.
