A Maverick poling skiff is a lightweight, shallow-draft boat built for stalking fish on the flats. Maverick calls its boats technical poling skiffs because they are designed to be pushed quietly across shallow water with a push pole while an angler casts to fish like redfish, bonefish, and tarpon. Maverick skiffs such as the 17 HPX-S float in as little as 6 inches of water, ride dry, and pole quietly thanks to careful hull design and light materials like carbon fiber. For serious sight-fishing anglers, a Maverick poling skiff is one of the most capable tools on the water.
