What I did with mine I have a Mota 55 pound thrust what I did was have a custom cut by a dealership that deals with Minnkota so my warranty is still valid. cut it down to 28 inches. It’ll be perfect for your kayak. Trust me. I got three motors that I had custom cut and it works just fine.
Sound Killer Thanks for sharing now have the PWR got a pretty cool set up going on that one. Will prolb.do Vid Come Spring Aloha Man spent 9 yrs Waialua Surfing NS.Worked in town.Miss it ! ✌🏻🤙🏻
That is a nice yak. For some reason I am like the only kayak fisher that still rolls around in a sit-in kayak. Nice video. Will watch for more. Gave you a sub.
Ponds Solo Fishing Thanks Man !🍻🤜🏻 Yea Love Kayak Fishing Shoulders are pretty wasted so dign the extra push.Have a Vid did a couple years ago on the Catch 120 & 30 lb.thrust check it out wen you have time.🤙🏼
@@nopro5433 You aren't alone... most everyone asks me how I can even cast accurately... I guess after you have a few gators come over the top of your kayak you start to feel safer in a sit-in.
Ponds Solo Fishing Lol I have been pretty close to some big ones and that’s some scary stuff I’m not in Louisiana anymore but have some good fun there and great memories👍
I ended up getting the Pelican PWR on Craig’s and got it all rigged up W.Hand control swivels Last fall can’t wait for spring Prolb do a Vid on it .Thanks for viewing and comment Hope yours is working for you✌🏻
This is my second kayak the first I have Motorized was the Catch 120 W/30 lb Thrust did a Vid.a few years ago.This one is a 55lb MinnKota Pushes great and Stable for getting to your spots on mid to large lakes usually get two 3hr Sessions out of one charge and gets you back to doc W/ Power to spare👍
Just picked up a Catch PWR 100 pretty neat it has motor mount rear center Iv rigged it with a nice budget steering system will b doing Vid early spring.Thanks for viewing and comment.🍻
I’m confused…how do you secure the 2x4 block of wood to the boat? Is it just drilled through to the crate? Nothing actually attaching it to the boat at all?
Thanks for viewing I thought I put it all in the video. I will watch it back when I have time the 2 x 4 is attached to the milk crate. I sandwiched it with a 11 inch 2x4 on the inside top of the crate with three heavy Bolts if that’s what you’re asking thanks for viewing and comment. Let me know if that was what you were talking about.✌🏻
@@nopro5433that’s awesome! Does the weight of the battery and the bungees keep it secure in the boat then even with the weight of that big old 55lb thrust motor hanging off the side?
Sorry, I thought you were watching a more updated video on a second build. I did punch on my icon and go forward a bunch of videos and I did one a couple years ago as well.
UPDATE : I Just picked up a New /Used tan/Grn. 100 PWR if your thinking of picking up a 100 Spend a little More for the ((100 PWR)) They Track incredible super light for what it is.I Will B doing Vid along W/ DIY Steering Rig ASAP. It’s been working great stay tooned and thanks for Viewing! 🍻🤜🏻
Don Brazos Tracks pretty good takes a little getting used to mainly wen kicking on 5 does pull then levels out it will definitely spoil you.Thanks for viewing Man! 🍻🇺🇸🤜🏻
Mr Plow Actually although the Catch Series are Stout Kayaks and work great for the kota crate set up.I ended up selling it and picked up the Emotion Stealth Pro Angler believe by lifetime they are Really Stream line yet Stable I feel with the Minnkota setup feels twice as fast push I may do Vid on it.However had to get creative mounting the battery crate down. Thanks for Viewing and Comment.🇺🇸🍻🤙🏼

i know I'm kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good place to watch newly released series online?
@Hamza Troy i would suggest FlixZone. You can find it by googling =)
I'm in the process of doing that setup now. What were those things you secured the basket down with?
I have to do this…. I have the same kayak and tackle bag. It’s meant to be

Do you turn the handle or does it just go straight?
Thanks for the response

Can't hear
Sorry crappy ap working on that try casting tv or headphones✌🏻
Legit can’t hear a thing you’re saying sound is horrible
L Sounds like you’re 100 miles away
Yes still trying to find a good app working with my iPhone.🤪
The back end of that yak is barely out of the water. If you’re going to put a motor on a kayak, just get a boat.
You realize most fishing kayaks are built to have trolling motors right ?
I Never thought of that 👹
Can’t hear you!
Thanks for viewing Yea my app sucks I’m using.If further interested try casting TV or headphones 🤙
Your volume bro 👎
Yes I use my iPhone and a shitty app still haven’t found a good app. Thanks for watching and comment still searching for a good app.✌🏼
