Lmao that's funny

+ryguy11794 they are awesome

+2000lmk Thank You

I love them both but I get more satisfaction when I catch them from a kayak.

I was hoping you'd say that because I can't afford a boat and a vehicle to tow it with LOL. THANKS!!!

I'm sure my pocket knife would cut right thru your tightened strap. So much for your fancy lock. Just sayin.

that sucks man.

Are the straps cut/knife proof? Asking because criminals who specialize in theft will cut straps and bust locks..I had my motorcycle stolen when the dudes cut my ignition wires and strated bike without a key. I hate criminals and sorry about your kayak. My kayak is garaged and sadly I cannot stop anywhere with it in the back with fear it will be stollen...

That's why I moved mine. I needed space for my BlackPack. I haven't had any issues with it at all.

+Fernando Oliver I got it as an add on crime their site

thanks, Gene, I have a Homemade extender but the bed on the T is this foam tube cut in half, they do their job, but they're wearing off, I need something more durable, for the weight of my 15.5 thesher.

Video says to make sure it's facing up.... However I have a pedal drive kayak and the rudder sticks off the back so that's not an option for me without damaging my steering system. I'm not going to have the hassle of disassembling the calls if the rudder stem anytime I want to store it .. since I go out nearly every weekend.

That all came out of my head.

+KFS 486 I made them.

13 ft

Thank you

+Ben Paugh yes

Thanks Gene!

The Kayak Bass Fishing Facebook page.

Wow, just read my comment back, manning the BBQ and typing on a phone at the same time is bad! Thanks for the reply Gene, I'll check it out.

+Francisco Santiago that depends on how I want it to ride. If I'm in rough water I unplug them so the boat drains when water is in it. I un plug them when the wind is blowing hard so the boat will ride lower in the water.

I use the same size. I don't like to use less than 2" Schedule 40

I live in Georgia

If I flip, and I've never flipped, then I would have to buy a new camera and microphone.

Flukemaster ok thanks. But what if your like me who doesn't have enough money to buy another one. Would you just want to keep it in the water proof housing just to be safe or risk it. I ask you this because I don't see many KZfaqrs that kayak fish enough beside kayak bass fishing.

I also don't use the waterproof housings much at all. Now I've gotten a Session and a Hero5 in the last 2 years that are waterproof on their own, but I used and still use Hero3s in the Frame for a lot of stuff. It's a risk I'm ok with just to get better audio. If you're not willing to make that trade in security of the camera on the off chance you have a yard sale, it's your call. I fish cold water a lot and I just make sure that I don't go swimming. The camera is really the least of my concerns.

Toto Tojo I have an extended bed and I still use it. just distributes the weight better and makes me feel better.

Dalton Yarbrough how long is your kayak?

Toto Tojo it's 12ft 2in.

I used it even with my 8ft bed because my kayak was 14 ft long

Landon Lambert basspro has a pfluger trion spinning combo for 60 bucks online or in store. thats a nice set up!

At that age I'd let him pick it out.

Flukemaster thank you man. Keep doing what you doing! You have taught me everything I know about bass fishing besides trial and error.

Inside with electric blankets

@@Flukemaster mite actually do something of that nature.

Roman Arguelles pretty sure he has a big rig. the 2 on the trailer in this vid were a Coosa HD and a Cuda HD

you are right it is not a good idea especially in hot weather, all plastic boats will keep their hull shape longer and not dent, warp or oil can. Even on that trailer they should be strapped on their sides unless it is a very short trip, that's why kayak trailers have a bar in the middle.

Looks to be 2" pvc pipe. I would guess that two holes were drilled through each end across from each other. The "top" one being large enough to fit the screw/bolt all the way to the other "inside" so that it wouldn't scrape the yak.

It should be fine

thanks

in hot weather all plastic boats are better off being stored on their sides, as they have more structural strength and will not warp and oil can (oil canning is when the bottom becomes concave or flat from warping) the boat when the plastic gets hot and soft.

@@kirk2459 i have it upside down on saw horses

Keenan Moore I'd get 2 kayaks

Keenan Moore 2 kayaks man the pescodor 12 has been selling for about 500 it's a great kayak can't do much standing if at all but it's fast t4acks awesome and has been good for all my needs

wondering how the Cuda hd would fair in slow rivers with occasional class 2's. feel like the Cuda would handle Champlain better than the Coosa

+Dalton v I wouldn't use the Cuda in a river. To me it's not stable enough for that. It's great for flat water but not for rapids.

Flukemaster appreciate the reply

Depending on the wall diameter, that's possible, but sagging might be a good thing because then it would cup the bottom of the kayak? 1/4" wall would be the minimum I'll be putting in on my rack if I can't find 1/2" wall cheaply. Alternately, running 2x4's between the outer crossbeams, and then laying 2" ID pvc pipe HALVES over them would give support and prevent sagging.

Aliex Folgueira tru

Aliex Folgueira how does car topping mess up your kayaks? As long as you use proper saddles it's fine. I've been car topping kayaks for 7 years and my new kayak is a pdl. I just slide that sucker up my trunk and into my rack. Car is protected with bath mats and I have a load assist bar sliding from my rear bar.

RIYakFishing you have all the right gear, a high quality roof rack system and use towels based on what you are saying you take your time and do it right. I didn't my roof racks where crap and I put too. Much weight on it. And pretty much destroyed my car.

Paul Trupke good to know before hand anyways

Ben Shobe man I have a 2 door Civic (2000) and am dying to find out how I can get a larger kayak on that thing. I'm thinking about the ascend 128 t (using certificates and that's the best of my choices). Let me know if u have any ideas haha

+Ben Shobe I used to used those inflatable strap on racks and transport mine on my Toyota Corolla.

Jason Pittman sorry brother, it's a read but this is how I do it with a small car.That's actually the kayak I'm carrying on a 2004 330ci beemer (they look stupid when put together, but it works lol) what I did was found a roof rack that's made for smooth top cars (has feet and a strap that I run through my windows) and I riveted my mounts to it since the bar was round(mounts I have were intended for a square bar). The mounts I use have a flexible rubber attached to a wide "U" so that it hugs when the yak sit in them and then I use the loops you can bolt down on the interior of your hood (Just used an existing bolt and added the tie downs) and use the screw in tow point on my back bumper to secure front/back movement. And just for security I run the canoe locks through the windows and strap it down (also added security if the strap on bar ever tried to give let it wiggle left/right) the key for me in getting it on their with a little bit of back problems and without hurting me, car or yak is the Sherpak roller bar that suctions to my back glass and having a kayak dolly as far back on it as I can so the butt doesn't scrape as I roll it up the bar. I get the nose on that and hand by hand my way to the back so the wheels don't let it roll off and push it on from there. Using the Sherpak as the pivot point I can roll it up and keep from knocking the car too much. Car has some scratches from the bar feet, straps and some learning, but I'm pretty sure it does things BMW never thought it could lol

Flukemaster and yet State Farm still refuses to let me class it as a sports utility vehicle 😕

Jason Pittman my set up certainly not the only way to do it but when all you have is a little car and an obsession for fishing you get creative on how you're going to get off the bank.
