I really like the Backwater hand paddle so I decided to make one for myself. I used 3/16 diamond plate aluminum and wood handles. It is a little heavy and does not float but it is not going to break or get chewed up on oyster bars and rocks. I used my Werner Camano for the shape and went from there. It does work real well and in it's first real test doing some creak fishing I used it almost exclusively.
