Some great suggestions. I'm about to add a backpack to my seat once I get my kayak unwrapped. One thing I do is add some dense foam under my crate. Not as heavy and quieter if moved. Changed the logo? At least it doesn't show a beard!

Now that's a solid idea with the foam. Thanks for that. What logo are you referring to? I don't think I changed anything up recently.

May I make a suggestion about the ketch broad? Ok thanks😂. I would but a sticker on the inside fence as well to break up the color of the broad so the judges can see the fish's mouth against the broad. Makes it easier for them to judge.

You know, I was about to but thought that it may be challenged. It technically is extra length. Negligible… but technical.

Man…. I just bought my first Kayak a few weeks ago and have been rigging it ever since. Wilderness Systems Radar 135 with the Helix PD. I got a smoking good deal on it and I too drove 4 hours to pick it up on the Ohio river haha. I’ve got just about everything you have rigged and more! I was just winging it but looks like I’m on the right track! Love it!

Really kicking myself for saving the money and going with a Hoodoo Impulse 120. Bought it during covid and it was either spend too much on a Hobie or Bonafide (the Bonafide new was only slightly more at the time but backordered till after that summer) on the secondary market or get the Hoodoo which is compatible with almost nothing that doesn't just screw into kayak tracks. The upside is Hobie's patent ran out on the original mirage drive and Hoodoo uses it so I could put a Mirage180 in it if I want to spend $1000 to get reverse. I'd have to drill into the hull to get the native landing gear to work, right now using railblaza c-tug...I wouldn't recommend, it's the only cart system that I can store on the kayak while I'm out in the water with the current config.

Nice yak. I need pedal drive. Love the workout part of yakking. Found the Omega locking collar a headache with fatter EVA grips on cat rods. I ditched the lock and shaved the opening for clearance. I have the Garmin Striker CV4, great bang for the buck and great vids for use on YT. Really dig those Lew's rods you have. Love mine. Great vid. Lead me to some mods I may have overlooked and would like

Hey man, real glad I came across your videos. I’m looking to buy my first kayak and I’m 5’7 and about 265lbs big boy. I was wondering if you could even just give me your recommendation for a kayak that would be sufficient that won’t lose performance due to weight. Been seeing about weight capacity vs performance capacity. Please let me know any recommendations. Looking to be stable enough to stand. Thanks!

What a great video and channel! I really like alot of the DIY stuf fyou are doing. If you have a 3D printer I would print a riser track for your under seat storage. This way it will connect to your rails and still have rails on the risers for your seat to slide into. Awesome channel man, I am for sure going to sub.

How do you like the overall performance of the p127? Tracking, paddling, stability etc? On a scale of 1-10
@wendellfishing
@wendellfishing Жыл бұрын
Hey Clean Fun, Great to hear from ya. Overall I like it... but I like it at the price point I got it for $2100. Tracks like a boss due to the hull design, Stability, I stand easily and fish (I have pretty good balance still) I paddle it .002 percent of the time so not a lot to say here. The only things I'm still up in the air about is the turning radius. I haven't been in too many 12.7's before so I don't have a lot to compare it to. Going from my 10ft native slayer with a rudder extension.... it's noticeable and I need to figure something out as I fish tight spots sometimes.
@cleanfunfishing
@cleanfunfishing Жыл бұрын
@wendellfishing thanks man I appreciate that. The steering is not a huge deal breaker for me as long as it will get to the areas. I use my paddle to fish in shallow and if it tracks good that is a huge plus for me. The sharp turning kayaks don't track bc they want to turn too fast. You get one cast and you're turned around. I'm considering this kayak strongly very soon. Tight lines!

To be honest, I got it for $2000 and it was only used once. Hard to pass up. I could use it for a year and sell it for more than I bought it for at that price. Want to give it a shot for a season. I also am a HUGE fan of the propel drive. I like what I see so far but I need to figure out a modified turning system for it. Not happy with that so far.

Thank you for responding @Wendell Fishing , I appreciate it! I'm not opposed to mounting the correct tracks if need be, given they are sold separately? Also curious if the width of my yak is too wide? One of the pics on the website doesn't show the spreader bar. I could always accommodate an aluminum pipe to go in-between I'm thinking...
