I was ~5-10 min from dying from hypotherapy. I

In Jamaica, my x would not lean into the waves and flipped our kayak 3 times, I climbed in & pulled him in all three times, thank God the tour guide finally got him a separate kayak.

I have the k-1 angler pro mounted to a versa rudder. It’s super hard to lift the motor since the rope is so low. Has anyone built anything to make it higher? So you have more leverage?

That's not a kayak, that's just marketing BS! Once you hang a motor off it and you are using that as your primary means of propulsion what you are really in is an undersized thermoplastic mini boat being marketed as a kayak. That's reality and there is nothing wrong with that, but you are kidding yourself if you think this is kayak fishing because some marketer sold you on that silly notion. You bought a tiny thermoplastic mini boat, definitely NOT a kayak! LOL

Looks amazing. Just too wide to use paddles kayak style?

YUP!! I put braid to leader on EVERYTHING 👍🏻😎

I grew up fishing float tubes w/mono. That was dumb and would have landed more fish with braid. But I switched 30yrs ago and now use braid to fluoro leader for lakes.

I always use 30lb braid but what would you recommend lb wise for a steel leader? Ive been losing some huge pike just biting through my braid I recommend to everyone to use braid.

Awesome vid. Thank you so much. Just a great and thorough overview of something I’ve been researching and considering. 💪🏼

Very nice combo.

As always - Great Video and very helpful content. How would you say this boat compares to the Jackson Take Two, in terms of stability and performance? I currently have the Take Two and fish it solo, but that thing is HEAVY and I'm thinking of swapping it our for a Pursuit since on paper, it looks to be about 30 - 40 pounds lighter (when fully rigged). I'm mostly a paddler, so I just would be curious about your opinion of the comparison between the 2 boats from a paddling and performance standpoint. Thanks in advance

Can’t wait for the roller bearing pedal steering to come out. Great thorough video. My pwr129 gets here on the 15th. Can’t wait. Got mine on sale for 15% off.

can you show how you tiedown the blackpack

The fishing is one of the main reasons im moving to freeport!! Awesome video! 🔥

Niiiiice!!! Thanks a ton!!

How much weight can it hold. I'm 6ft and 300 lbs seen this on the website rated for 300lbs. Seen some not skinny people on this with a cooler full of ice and drinks, 2 poles, small tackle bag and a hand net.

Nice comparison video! Thanks for sharing!

Cool little “short” vid. Thinking about one…thanks for sharing

Great video got a question. I watched a few of your inflatable kayak series and just purchased a NRS Kuda. When it’s inflated, it’s a bit crooked. I’ve deflated it and inflated it several times. Have you noticed that with yours?

Any info as to why NRS discontinued this model? I contacted customer service and they did not know.

What brand and size is the seat cushion you use with the Kuda seat?

Hi mate. Great review. I'm looking at the possibility of bringing one of these to Australia. I mainly fish the Swan River in Western Australia and a lot of the river has a 5 knot limit and is mostly sheltered water. The lower reaches are a bit more like inshore sea fishing, but this unit looks like it could be a good option. Big question for me is how do you think it will handle the UV light over time? The sun here in Western Australia is brutal. Thanks again for posting the great review.

How would this hold up against flooded stumps and sharp branches, while moving? Want an inflatable so bad, but i dont wanna go swimming, in my local flooded cedar forest. Fletchers Floodwaters is notorious for ripping prop shear pins daily.

It's like a new episode of Redding's on the Road.

I think they're on the right track, now they just need to offer something more robust.

Will this make the truck slower

I see that you installed a Power-Pole Micro, could you give me some info on how you did that, Thanks.

great detailed review: the feedback on use of a motor to go upstream is really relevant to my fishing......going to check out torqueedo motors. thanks guys.

Nk180pro is way way better 😂had that wasn’t as great

I’m old and not flexible. If I can’t touch the floor, I’m just swimming however far it takes to get to the shore sadly. I probably shouldn’t kayak but… I love being on the water!

22mph lol that can get you in some fun sh*t

Good vid, man! I have considered this motor for my Kuda 126, but I think the price point is fairly high, to be honest. I already have a Newport Vessels 55lbs thrust kayak trolling motor as well with a DIY 100ah lithium battery box that only weighs about 14lbs. The issue is that I can't find any trolling motor mount options for the Kuda. Are you aware of any? I prefer a stern mount over a side mount... and I already have a jointed swivel extended tiller handle.

I guess it doesnt have spotlock.. also doesnt have variable speed (just speed steps).. to be able to fish id rather have a tiller with variable speed. (to be able to counter the wind). Also the third negative is the battery.. lifepo4 has become dirt cheap in the last 5 years.. i can make a 120ah 12v lithium battery for about 170 bucks.. that would offset the cost of a motor.. (also 120amp on 12v is like 2 times the battery the bixpy comes with). Could also make a 120amp 25v battery for about 300 bucks.. that would be about 4 times the battery the bixpy has.. (but instead they chare 4 times more for a quarter of the performance.. thats abit much for me). (same capacity would be about 120-150 bucks to make urself). My 400 dollar trolling motor has about 700 watt usage.. also pushes my boat a bit faster then 4mph.. in a 1236 loaded with 3 people and a dog.. A little kayak would go faster offc.. my range is also more then double.. also cost less then half.. THis might be decent for people who are not fishing. Any fisherman would rather save the 800 bucks on the motor and put that towards a sonar screen.. then ur just short another 1500 for the ducer..

Its a really nice system. I installed one on a tupalo LT for a friend she really loves it. However, on a light narrow kayak it actually doesn't go slow enough to just keep the kayak still in wind and current for photography. Wush there was a way to change the speed variable settings. It does eat narrow grass to the point it will stop and beep at you. Overall great product. Nice review Jameson!

I would love to see a river trip on the inflatable with the Bixpy

Awesome intro video 👍🏼

Which E-pump are you using, I can not find the correct adaptor for the Leafield d7 valve

Huge dude! mob

River tax... yeah, but i mean, the reason we buy all that stuff is to try and have a day like that, isn't it?

This is very clever I’m going to make that strap part of my kit

I’ve had a trolling motor on my kayak since 2014. I do lot of river fishing. I recently came to the conclusion that the motor setup is better for lakes and wider rivers without too many rapids and hair pin turns. For shallower, rocky rivers I bought a second kayak. Bare bones, lighter, shallower. No heavy motors, mounts, batteries. Just my own personal preference. Everyone has their own style.

This was a great walk through buddy 🤜🏼🤛🏼! Let’s go fishing

Seeing the molds in the video was really cool. I used to work for Avantec (Lakeland Mold) and i did get to build a mold for Jackson kayak roughly 6 years ago. Don’t remember what model it was. Plan on buying a Jackson coosa x next spring. Can’t wait.

Wait, is it Betty? I thought it was pronounced Baitey.

Very nice review. The world of high quality inflatable watercraft has really expanded in the last decade. The NRS looks like a great boat with a solid and experienced name behind it. Someone else mentioned Stealthcraft and I have looked them over and found them to be very solid as well. I own 2 Flycrafts: the original Stealth and the 14' Guide Boat. Bombproof is an exaggeration, but not by much. They don't need near as much babying as you might think. It takes ALOT to puncture one. Their lighter weight and greater rocker gives them the nod if maneuverability, particularly in whitewater or small channels, is a concern. But performance satisfaction depends on matching the boat with the application. Everyone's needs are a little different and will likely change over time. There is no perfect boat, but we can all enjoy a lifetime of looking for it...!

OG crew right there! Good to see you guys back on the water together! Great episode brother! 😁👍👍

You're good at describing. Watched your whole video. Covered every aspect.

The dream team

I enjoy watching the coastal fishing. Being from SE Texas, it’s what we do here a lot. It’s hard to beat catching tailing Reds.

This is something all paddlers need to practice at least yearly.
