Thanks Mike! It was a bit windy and the bass weren't showing the love but it beats a day NOT fishing.

I enjoy how well you explain everything in your videos. I just picked up my first kayak a Jackson Cuda 12 to fish with here in Montana. Mostly lakes and rivers. So am just in the starting to learn phase. Todays task is to find some tracks and get them mounted and maybe get a start on my DIY fishing crate. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos

Hi Maurice! Congrats on the new yak! Jackson kayaks are amazingly stable! I'm excited for you to get out on the water and build out your mods! My first few trips were definitely learning and observing to see what would work best for me. I'm happy I could be of some help. Let me know if you have any questions!

Nice setup and ride. I am waiting on my Hobie PA14 getting rigged. I purchased the Garmin 106sv with GT56 ducer so should be incredible. Cant wait to get after some tog here in NJ. Your setup lokks great
@BeardedDadFishing2 жыл бұрын
Man, Hobies are incredible! Your set up is going to be sick! I've been considering upgrading to the gt56 just off of some comparisons I've seen but, I think I should give it some more time on the water first. Good luck brother and tight lines! Thanks for watching 💪🏽

I had a yak attack for my Helix 8 in the same place but it was WAY to wobbly I had to go with a ram ball mount. Lithium all the way! I run amped outdoors 14.8 volt 35 ah battery for my Helix gives me 3 days and is size of a coke can, and run 2 Dakota Lithium 12v 54ah 12 in series for 24 volts for my custom motor/pod. Both companies shipped with chargers too.
@BeardedDadFishing2 жыл бұрын
That's awesome man! I definitely considered Dakota and Amped and have only heard positives from both. I'll probably try a bow mounted motor at some point in the future. Eyeing that spotlock feature from minn kota! My unit does give a bit of wobble but hasn't caused any concern yet. It's definitely top heavy with that screen. Thanks for sharing your set up brother! 🙏🏼

I had purchased the YakAttack Round Base fish finder mount thinking I was going to purchase the Striker 4 series. I changed my mind and got a 7sv and found that the mount wouldn’t fit the round base. I found your video and found my error. Thank you.

I'm looking to put my trolling motor battery in the bow where you have your zoom; have you had any issues with weight distribution? My battery is 24V 40ah (~20lbs). Thanks.

Great video!! Quick question…is that Lake Nockamixon?? I recognize that boat ramp. I kayak fish there all the time. Im still waiting to take my new Old Town PDL 106 on its maiden voyage….just waiting for the warmer weather.

Thanks sir! And yes that is Nockamixon. I try to get out there once a month or so. The fishing is tough but can be very rewarding. Congrats on the 106 PDL. I love my 120 PDL. Old Town makes some amazing yaks!

Do you get good images when you are using the side scan feature with the transducer being mounting up under the hull? I’m wondering if the sides of kayak interfere with the images.. Thanks in advance.

Hey Michael! The side imaging works perfectly. I was also worried about this, however watching a few videos, I realized this wouldn't be an issue.
