What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The open bow design of the Oxbow 85 makes it perfect for hopping in and out while fishing along the banks. Its lightweight build and durable materials make it a breeze to transport and a beast on the water."

The NRS Oxbow 85 Personal Fishing Raft redefines where and how we fish. Its fully open bow design lets us step in and out with ease, explore hard-to-reach waters, or use fins to maintain drift control. Lightweight yet stable, this raft is purpose-built for flatwater fishing adventures, offering comfort, maneuverability, and endless possibilities for customization.

From its rugged PVC construction and welded seams to its Slot Rail micro-frame, every detail is engineered for durability and performance. Built-in features like a suspended mesh cargo floor for gear, customizable side trays, and a breathable folding seatback keep our essentials accessible and secure. Whether rowing across still waters or managing fly lines on the durable mesh stripping apron, the Oxbow 85 delivers on convenience and reliability.
