The Elite Angler Pro from Vanhunks gets it's first tournament action of the season. We went to Pymatuning for Kayak Anglers of Western PA and Kayak Anglers of North East Ohio where we compete for the best 5 fish limit. Here are some highlights of the bass we pulled in that day, and the ones that got away. Topwater bite was hot early, and the Senko helped us pick up a few late.
Thank you to my sponsors/pro staff affiliation with Vanhunks Boarding, Dino Lures by Trex, and FishUSA

Hey I was looking into this kayak. I like the pricing and all but was wanting a first person review on it. With it being new and all it’s harder to find reviews. What do you like about it? Standing in it is a bigger thing for me since I like to fly fish. How is the stability? Have you been in a old town pdl120 to compare it to? Anything you would change? Thanks in advance.

I am still to this day a month later blown away by it brother. This thing puts many others I’ve been in to shame especially at the price range it is a great boat unreal stability and a HUGE deck area to satisfy all the space I could ever need. I’d recommend it to anyone

What's your go to lure for that early morning top water bite? I'm struggling big time with that. Nothing worse when they're busting all around you and nothings biting

There are three go to lures for me. I will work a head banger lure, a whopper plopper, or a googan revolver. Anything that disturbs the water that I can work quickly through areas to cover water. Don’t be afraid to work the area hard… I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gotten bit on my 10th or 11th cast into one general area. And vary your retrieve speeds, sometimes I have better look moving at a slow constant speed, sometimes more luck pausing and letting it sit, and even still I’ll get bit absolutely burning it back to the boat

@@hook_a_yak1629 Thanks for the info. Been eyeballing the headbanger lures. Might pick a few up and give it a go this weekend.

Let me know how they work!!! They have been surprisingly productive for me and I have become a big fan!

You should do a stability test on thing. How much walking around on it can you? Push it to the limits of stability. Can you stand in the back? How far forward can you stand,etc.

That’s a good idea! I did a review where I was up and moving but I will take some time to film that next time I’m out! It’s the most stable boat I’ve been on. On this trip I was spun around laying flat to try and fix something on the back of the boat that got tangled. Stood up spun around laid down etc without any issue. It’s truly impressive
