I have learned further since posting.
A Grandson, an Agronomist, advised it is Virginia Creeper. The leaves are probably okay, but the berries are considered POISONOUS, do NOT eat.

As I said earlier, growing along with the Wild grapes, and looking similar.
Stay Safe Out There.

I can tell you they are NOT identical to the Wild Grapes they are growing alongside.

Can somebody tell me - edible or inedible?
My wife believes as a kid she was told to NOT eat these.

Thank You Graywulff, I can see some logic there. I was getting lost in procedure in the tutorial.

We have a daughter and family at Buffalo, WY. Some beautiful areas/streams/fish(ing). Thanks for sharing. Have a couple pics also, if I could learn how to post them.

That is true my friend, Wal-Mart, Meijers, Culver’s, Kroger’s and probably a few others I am not thinking of. But I’m pretty sure not at Wings etc. or Buffalo Wild Wings.😆

About five miles North of Indiana (into MICHIGAN), about an hour East of South Bend - STURGIS, MI, not very far from your hometown, Spirit. Amish country.

I may have mentioned earlier, JACKSON KAYAK also makes a side-by-side unit, has three pontoons, is wider, heavier, (I’m sure) more difficult to move “on the hard” and would probably best be used by two persons. Would also need a larger trailer. AND MORE DOLLARS.😢
Sorry for being so wordy, but we enjoy the unit, don’t regret the investment because we use it and hope others would do the same. We’re not Jet Ski or Go Faster boat fans. But enjoy sailboat/canoe/kayak. Your welcome to wander up this way and try it for yourself. I found TWO local dealers very willing to take me on demo launchings.
If your wandering around on the web, another item of interest might be RON RANTILLA FORWARD ROWER. I have one of those too, based in a canoe.😃

13’ 4” x 47” x 47”, does NOT fold/collapse/deflate. Aluminum frame with molded sheet plastic decking and rigid molded plastic pontoons. Pontoons are rotomolded like most kayaks. And have latchable covered storage compartments. The seat may be unpinned and lifted out of the socket/receiver/base, to reduce profile. Could certainly be carried in the back of a pickup, but your probably a short box and would have too much overhang/leverage. I do transport quite handily on a 5’ x 8’ utility trailer and red flag the overhang. Lower load height and easier to get around to load/unload/tie down/secure. I don’t remember the weight, but is significant considering one person moving it around “on the hard”. On the water of course it is quite easy to maneuver. I generally have a SUP paddle teathered to the craft for close quarters maneuvers.
Yes, my wife really enjoys the craft (I believe) because she can untie it from the dock, peddle around the lake QUIETLY at her leisure/pleasure, independently. We generally keep the pedal unit in the garage for security, she can install, toggle it down and peddle away. Very much like a bicycle without the balance problems, VERY stable, even standing on the edge of the craft. The seat and pedal proximity is similar to her recumbent tricycle, Which is very comfortable.

Spirit, I intended to include the remark that we are located on a small lake, 53 acre, and the Angler 360 is perfect for that and other small lakes we have around here. I have Demo’d one on a river, but would be CAUTIOUS against significant current and probably NOT large bodies of water.
I think they have done a good job on the “drop in and wing nut down” pedal unit. Removeable for security. Prop is levered down for use or up for transport. (Joy) stick steering on side of seat, push/pull. Dear pivot’s (almost) 360degrees and is somewhat adjustable, needs better lumbar and a tightening grip on the reclining feature, adjustable backrest angle.
As you say, check it out. Who would ever guess how much I AND MY WIFE enjoy mine.
Forgot to mention two items, nice little gift package included in my purchase and the drop down legs/wheels for short distance transport.
Any questions, let me know.

I still have a fishing kayak, just an entry level type, Future Beach, Voyager 10.4, it’s okay, but this old fart needs more space and stability, any more all it gets used for is river clean-up projects with the Conservation Dept.
What I really like for fishing and peddling around is the JACKSON Kayak Angler 360! A mini pontoon, pedal power with a prop, instant reverse or forward when needed, pedestal seat, front and back porch - plenty of space for gear, pretty well thought out but it does need lumbar support in the backrest. It is available as a side by side - tri toon. My wife enjoys using it for just pedaling around ( a real help in justification😄). BUT, it comes at a PRICE! Would I do it again? In a heartbeat!!
Going back to simplicity, I think Spirit is onto something with his stabilizers idea.

I agree with CH, an original idea, doesn’t quite meet OSHA approval of the Coast Guard and the prop could be a real eye opener!
