Thank you two!
Thanks for watching! 🙌🙌
Reaction when K realized what rod was in the holder. "Priceless"
Secrets out! 😂😂😂 thanks for watching! 🙌🫶
I use the Scotty 229 rod holder. It locks your rod in and it’s perfect. I use it with the short extension going out of the boat and the long extension going up . great system
We'll be trying the 229s out this season as well, the R5's are great for trolling in lighter currents but are terrifying with any kind of blowback. The orcas are probably the most solid that we've used, but they're also very heavy and not a great option for quickly staging a rod one-handed. We have a couple of 229s on the way and will be testing them out this season! Thanks for watching!
Love the Oldtown Sportsman. Such a great kayak!
They've exceeded all our expectations, we absolutely love them! 🙌
Nice teamwork guys! Looking forward to ur 2024 videos! ❤
Much appreciated! 🙏 thanks for watching! 🙌
Ohhhhhh, I'm jealous of that Powerbox! I love to see how others are situating their boat to fit their fishing styles. Great video!
I'm going to try that metal rudder from Navarre that you showed. Next season, I'm looking to move away from the Laketroller downrigger, I'm looking for something with a line counter and one hand operation, like the Scotty 1060 or Cannon options. Still undecided. With that change, I'll likely use a different mounting setup and use a V-lock with aluminum plates. Also, if your looking for rod holder options the YakAttack Zooka II has been great for spinning/casting reels!
Thanks man! We will also be changing downriggers, going to go with cannon behind the seat, and attach a cordless drill to it, no more hand cranking our downriggers up! As the the smaller cannons are rated for 8lb balls which could be fun! We're thinking cannon because once you start getting into bigger downriggers from scotty they take up alot more real estate on the kayaks, the vertical style of the cannons should be great for what we're planning! Thanks for watching! 🙌
Forgot to mention, the rod you weren't suppose to show 🙂... Love to see the long butt end side. IMO all kayak rods need that as I use it for leverage under my arm, especially while sitting down or using one hand. I also like a large rubber stump on the bottom too for that leverage (but not too wide as it has to sit in rod holder). Look forward to seeing/hearing more on this WCF rod.
100% that was a must for us with this rod, having a longer butt section is crucial for trapping it in our armpit while still having the reel far enough away to crank on, we're so excited about the rod, can't wait to share it with everyone!
@@kckayakfishingis there an approximate time for the rod to release?
@zeekzeek7790 we're still testing currently, probably spring 2025 would be the earliest after we've had a season with them. in case we have to make any changes to them.
Fish on master,,watching here,,done support to your channel.
Awesome rig rundown! Your set ups are far different than what we are using but at the same time similar in many ways. Great video! Not gonna lie I was looking around the garage for the KC fishing wood burn I made ya lol 🎣🚣♂️🤙🏻❤️
That's to nice to be in the garage! We're in the middle of making a studio/office and it'll be up in there for sure! Right now it's in our living room! 🙌🙌🫶
I like the setup you only what you need 💪🏽💪🏽
It's been a great rig for us so far! Couldn't be happier! 🙌🙌
Great set up!
Thank you! 🙏 it took a couple of seasons to put all the pieces together, but we finally found a setup that works perfectly for us! Thanks for watching! 🙌
I am about to buy that boat for fishing the salt on the northeast! Definitely going to take some information from this video! Are there affiliate links?
@arthurk9748 it's been a fantastic Salt water platform for us! Unfortunately, no affiliate links as of yet, we're working on it though!
How about a closeup of the extra prop on the hatch lid, how is it attached?
Had to drill a couple holes in the plastic on the underside of the hatch, then we ran a couple bungee cords through to hold the prop, but we can definitely do a video on that! 🙌
We , We We... Stop saying We!!! OMG
@@zekejohnson7008 don't watch if it bugs you that much 😉
@kckayakfishing you don't know what TF your even talking about
@@zekejohnson7008 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 nope WE definitely don't!
nice video
Thanks! 🙌🙌
Great video! Just.
got my OT pdl 106 and I am setting it up. Your video has some good info! What's your favorite net? I am doing strictly freshwater lake fishing for trout and kokanee.
Thanks so much! And congrats on the 106, you'll love it! 🙌
We don't do a ton of fresh water fishing but love the Frabill Sportsman Rubber Net
a.co/d/aFVs6Hi
Telescoping from 24-48" handle and a rubber flat bottom basket.
A little on the pricey side compared to others on Amazon. Amazon also had a ton of folding,collapsible nets that look decent but you get what you pay for we've found out the hard way 😂
And then for Saltwater we use the Gibbs GV series nets with the 4' handle and 32" bag depth.

Thanks for watching!
@@kckayakfishing 👍
Would like to see how you rigged the bungee under the hatch for the extra prop.
Ya, we probably could have shown that a little better! We copied someone else though so here's the link! th-cam.com/video/weX7FOxu8XU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XZeIBCn05zeuObbf thanks for watching!
@@kckayakfishing Thanks!
@jameshalsell5769 no problem at all! It's a great way of storing extra props we've never had an issue with them falling off the lid 👍
I don’t used a down rigger. I fish sea trout, Spanish Macro, Sheepheads ,Blue fish, Pompinno,
Great video! Can't wait to see the rid release!!!
Can you send a link to the "female urination device"? I have one and it's a game changer when I'm hiking and river fishing, but don't think the dedign is the best for a kayak 😊
Thanks for watching! 🫶 here's the link: a.co/d/dXoKQc2 Crystal loves it, we were even thinking about attaching a small hose to the end of it to go through the scupper hole! 😂😂😂 but she just lifts the drive up, works great! 🙌
@@kckayakfishing lol, too funny! Thanks so much! Really enjoy your channel!
@@FamilyNick thanks so much! Appreciate the support! 🙏🙏
How does the Pelican cart handle transport over sand and busted concrete ramps? I was looking at gallon tires but the price point on Pelican looks great. Thanks and great video
Wouldn't recommend it for fine sand launches, our beaches here are mostly rocky so it handles them pretty well, concrete ramps it would work great, we're looking at possibly throwing some bigger tires on the cart to help with our ground clearance issues. It's a great budget kayak cart, but that's exactly what it is, a budget cart. It's a solid cart and can handle the weight of our kayaks, no problem, but if you have a lot of sandy launches, we'd definitely recommend a cart with balloon tires. Thanks for watching!
What would you recommend for salt water fishing 106 vs 120? I’m looking forward to start fishing from a kayak. Thanks
If storing and transportation aren't an issue, then definitely the bigger 120, more room for gear as well a bit higher weight capacity.
Thanks for watching! 🙌
Is that a 12 or 24 size seat back cooler? Im going to order one but dont want to order the wrong one. Thanks
Had to go and measure the cooler because we honestly had no idea 🤣 turns out it is the 12 pack soft cooler 🤘
Is that the Scotty crab pot puller? How do you like it? Does it help? Been thinking about getting one.
Yup the Scotty Trap-Ease, they work great! Nice that it keeps the rope from rubbing on the kayak hulls, also we find it easier pulling the line towards us than vertically! A great addition for crabbing!
@@kckayakfishing thank you!
@@FamilyNickanytime! Thanks for watching! 🙌🫶
I’m getting this same kayak where did you mount your transducer?
The one thing we forgot to show 🤦♂️ we used the Navarre Scupper transducer mount and used the scupper hole in front of the PDL Drive, it's worked great no issues at all. Here's a link, and thanks for watching!

Hi. Propane bottles should not be stored in garage. Safety First
You're definitely right
Hi. The West Coast spoons you are using , what series of the spoons are working best for you and which ones out of that series ? Thank you
@louiseschricker9963 we use a combination of Phat-E spoons, little phat E spoons, Fish-E spoons, and the new Sex-E spoons. The patterns we primarily use for our fishing are No Bananas, Herring Aid, Irish Cream, and Blue Silver, we're always trying to match the baitfish in the water so early season the smaller Sex-E and Little Phat-Es are our Go To. As the bait gets bigger and the Salmon start feeding more aggressively, we usually go with bigger spoons, always trying to match what they're feeding on.
