I see quite of few guys putting their graph in the center of the new rail. What made you decide not to do that? Nice vid !

@shred5 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the video. I’m considering a Pro Angler and I will either do the same thing or put it right next to the seat on the right side (since I cast left handed)

Where did you find the sleeve for the graph cables?

@applegatefishing Жыл бұрын

Sadly I'm not sure you can get them anymore. TRCCovers was the company, and you use to be able to order custom length cable sleeves like this but I no longer see that on their website. trccovers.com/

Thanks for the tips and the video. I’ve been following a Hobie group on Facebook and seen this front rail. Now I’m wondering why i bought it. I think getting a few things off my side rail would be a good reason. I’m always worried that if i tip, I’d have too much crap on the side rail to get back in. This should help clear a spot. I have an older PA 12 so i might have to shorten the bar a little.

Absolutely, glad to help. I think you'll really love having that extra H-Rail up front.

@rogergreenwald4386 2 жыл бұрын

Like the idea of placing a hrail on the front of a PA14. Is the 21” hrail longer than 21”with the black attachment end pieces? If the total length is 21” it won’t be long enough to work on my PA14 360.

@applegatefishing 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Roger, sorry for the delay. The bar itself is what measures 21", the black plastic end pieces are not included in that 21" measurement from Hobie. I believe, don't hold me to it, the total length of the 21" H-Rail kit is actually 28" with the black plastic ends included. Hope that helps!

How do you like your FF on the front H rail? Is it still there? I am most likely going to get a 10" screen. Been contemplating getting the PA14 360. Thx

@applegatefishing 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Brian, yes I do still have my FF on the front H-Rail. I put it as far to the right side as I can and as low as possible. It works perfectly there and is out of my way while still be visible. The 360 drive is nice but if I could do it over again I think the 180 drive setup + spot-lock bow mounted trolling motor would be perfect.

@briansupermag3918 2 жыл бұрын

@Applegate Fishing thx for the reply i will not be doing a trolling motor at all so i am sure about the 360. About the forward mount for your FF . Is it a pain to get up and mark a fish or way point. My only concern is about not having contact with my FF to hit and keys needed so getting up and down, etc. I am a big guy at 6'3" with long arms, so wonder if i can reach it so it wouldn't be an issue. Thx for any feedback

@@briansupermag3918 I am 6'2" and I'm able to pretty easily touch it when needed. I have to lean forward a little ways but it is something I only do like a dozen times at most when I'm on the water. If I was mostly going to be seated and I heavily needed to touch the FF it might be better off being closer to the chair. I have been routinely standing up and fishing now that I have a trolling motor so having it further forward like this has allowed me to still use it while standing similar to a normal bass boat with their FF up next to the trolling motor pedal.

@Applegate Fishing thank you as thats pretty much the answer i was hoping for. I can have my screen split 3 ways. Side scan in top so its wide then traditional sonar/chirp on 1 then chart on the 3 to see contour lines on the bottom to find places to target. Appreciate it

Sweet looking setup, do you think this would work on the pa 12 as well?

@applegatefishing 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely, worst case you'll have to cut part of the bar, but I doubt it. The PA12 is 36" wide where the PA14 is 38" wide.
