I really want a fishing kayak but I can't afford those specific models.
I don't know if it is my research or not? But I cannot figure out the differences between the Tahoma and the Tamarack models...
Help, please!!
My yak has the internally routed steering lines with two lines going to each handle. I’m trying to find a suitable replacement line for them that’s as close to spec as Hobie’s without paying the Hobie price. Has anyone found a suitable cord type and width?
Hello, I just picked up a new kayak over the weekend. What's a good rod leash? I'll probably never have more that 3 rods max on my kayak at a time. Are there any that you can leave on and cast with that are not too much in the way/ cumbersome? Thanks.
I found a Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 kayak on fb marketplace for 350$ in really good condition, I have been wanting to try kayak fishing and have never used a kayak before so im worried about it holding up my weight. I weigh 275LB and its capacity is 350LB but if my research has been correct you need to add in the weight of the kayak itself? I'm just trying to make sure before I pull the trigger on this.
Any recommendations for a red spinning rod would be greatly appreciated preferably a g loomis diawa shimano st Croix or something decent in the $200 and up range price wise. I’m open to suggestions of other brands as well.
You heard it here first folks. $85 Canadian and 2 days shipping. Gone are my days of shore fishing!
For any of you looking to snag some decent outdoor wear, I saw they were going out of business and managed to get a few shirts and a Grizzly 45q Cooler for 140 bucks. I know it isn't exactly kayak related, but their stuff is great for being out in the sun. I don't know what all the mark downs are or anything, just happened to luck out in Key West.
My cousin just gave me a bunch of his fishing stuff, including an inflatable pontoon and a fish finder. It's the humminbird fishing buddy 120 and I want to use it for my kayak, but it's missing the mount that holds the fish finder to the clamp. I know that clamp won't be able to fit on my kayak. Are there any ideas to how I might be able to mount it to the rails? I have a lifetime tamarack pro with no modifications on it yet I'm contacting humminbird to try and get the piece I'm missing. Any help is appreciated
Just got a Hobie Compass and I was looking for advice on 3-4 rod and reel combos, mostly for freshwater with occasional inshore fishing. Budget is around $800 total. I already have rods but want to leave those at the dock for family. Another question I have is the type of reel I should be using, as only one I haven’t used regularly is a conventional reel, but I see other people using them. Any tips and suggestions would be helpful, thanks
Groot Brak River, Garden Route.
Sorry if this type of question has been asked before. But if you had $300 what dry suit or other gear would you buy to kayak fish in the winter in Oklahoma? Or is that budget too low?
In short im looking for recomendations for a fish finder that i would prefer to be a 5 inch screen, with side scan. Im not a big fan of this new Live Imaging Forward Facing nonsense (so please dont even recommend those). Id like to stay in this 5 inch margin I may take a gander at 7 inch displays but im trying to be minimilistic on clutter. Any recomendations are appreciated.
Hey guys, I just purchased the Garmin 94sv and cannot figure out which mount to get. I have an autopilot 120 and want to run the graph on one of the rails like I do with my Lowrance Hook 5. Any suggestions for a rail mount?
Pic is current setup.
Just got into kayak fishing, needing some advice on anchors and some of yalls experiences.
What’s the best anchor to use for rock and sand?
Is it it ok to mount the triple shot transducer and cabling like this? Will the cabling interfere with the signal at all?
Looking at purchasing a used Motor Guide IX3 for my SKF 117. Wondering if anyone has any experience mounting one on that kayak. I would like to mount it on the stern because I primarily fly fish and don't want the motor in the way. Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
