First, thanks for your dedication! It's worth stating that this guy is 6'2" 245 lbs, as he said in one of his replies. That's getting near the weight limit for this kayak. It is much more stable for a shorter and lighter person to stand in , and doesn't roll over as easily.
Thanks for the comment! Also, I could of went a little slower when putting myself off balance. I've only been in the water off this yak during the filming of this video.
@@t.j.outdoors3961 it's definitely good to do a roll test though. I've been meaning to roll over in mine just to see what the "tipping point" is, but then I get out on the water and don't feel like getting wet. I'm 5'7 160 and it's been pretty hard to tip over so far compared to others kayaks I've been in.
Personally I think adding a bunch of stuff to a yak is wrong. To me, a kayak is supposed to be light, portable, and quick to set up. I've never been interested in needing to spend 15-20 minutes assembling my kayak before I launch, or having a trailer. I would just get a boat before I did all that.
I take mine down miles of river, pretty stable for being a budget kayak. The only time I've ever flipped is from modding a seat up too high and becoming somewhat unstable (on a fast moving river) other than that very stable. I even sit sideways on it and fish sometimes.
The only time I have ever flipped mine was in the making of these videos! Are they as stable as a $1000 kayak? No. But you can buy 2 more and take your family or buddies with you for that price and everyone have a great time.
Seeing you take a splash was worth a like and subscribe! Good job getting back in the kayak. I've had adventures in kayaks and could have drowned once and eaten by a nest of gators another time. I'm not sure I want to try my luck again at 74. Very best wishes.
Thank you very much for the demo and for not using a self-mounted camera so we can actually see what the boat is doing. I'm 6-4, 245 and this is my #1 concern. Having watched that boat while you were standing, I can also definitely say no thank you to that one :) Looks like I'll be spending a little more money!
You are welcome!! And I don't blame you! I will say though, the only time I had ever fallen off this kayak, was during the filming of this video. I've not really seen a kayak under $500 that's super steady without an outrigger. Good luck in your search and tight lines!
I have that kayak and I think it really depends on how much you personally weigh and how much equipment you have on board. I’m only 125 lbs and can stand up with no problems at all. Plugs in the kayak make it a bit more stable to
I just bought one of these. Without any research. This tells me a lot. Thank you. ( I've been using an 8 foot sit in pelican, this will be a vacation in comparison. Lol. Also I am only about 160 lbs. So I bet I will love this thing. It's not my dream kayak for sure, that's a liquidlogic 800 dollar piece of plastic. But I could definitely use this for a couple years, after using that pos sit in pelican for 2 years.
Ask the guy to fall in the water for you... he does it twice. LOL that's dedication to your channel. THANKS a thousand times! These videos have showed me what I suspected from seeing the two different hull designs. The Teton hull sits higher out of the water and with the seat being higher as well, this has to contribute to it not being quite as stable as the the Tamarack. How did your new dry storage hatch hold up on ghee Teton?
I went in more then once that day haha! There is at least one more video shot this day that I am going to post. And anything to try and help everyone else out. I try my hardest to answer any questions people have, and try to improve what I am doing on my channel through suggestions from my comment section. I'm always looking for new things to make videos on! I would say you are right about the ride height contributing to its stability issues. New hatches worked great, I didnt have any water to drain out I believe. Thanks for the comments!
Im 6'3" almost 300lbs I ride the tamarack pro but it is maxed out, river is pretty sketchy but i have taken it down some gnarly waterfalls but always eat it due to it being maxed out. Still lots of fun and perfect for lake fishing!
I got one and took it out for the first time to the lake.with my old lady and she has a sit in got in some running water she was doing fine me not so much thought I was honestly gonna die lol water coming from the holes later plugged and stability was scary at best took my best to gain control back and paddle.like my life depended on it
These style kayaks are meant for still and slow moving water. I've gotten mine into some swifter stuff before but I wouldn't recommend it. Sit in are better for swift water purposes.
I've got that model Tamarack. I like the new hatches. My son will like this video as he likes to stand up to cast. And he weighs only 130lbs. I also have a 10SS. It measures 9ft and 10inches. For two years I bought the invasive species permit for it until I took a tape measure to it. 10ft is the point for that here in Oregon. As I'm getting a little heavy, 212lbs, This past spring I got a good deal on the Phoenix 10.4" 300lbs capacity and very stable. A little wide and fat in the middle. Like me.
From what i am told, the smaller you are, the easier standing is. I have gotten a little more comfortable with it, but its not something i do very often. I do like the hatches on thr newer tamaracks as well. Thanks for the comment!
@@t.j.outdoors3961 I was really thinking of getting the Teton mainly for pond fishing and then in the fall a lot of times the beaches (ocean) are flat water. But after seeing how easily it tipped I don't know. Definitely like the seat on that yak too.
I may do another round of stability tests in it. I feel like I did a really poor job showing it off in that regard. I haven't once felt like I was going to tip over in normal operation. I am going to get it out below a local dam tailwater this next week. That may be a better example for you, I will be floating a pretty exciting stretch of water that I have done before in my other kayak a few times. Hopefully hook into a big fish and put it through the ringer.
Yeah, I think it would. I know I have had over 300 pounds in it before (myself + gear). But I wouldn't want to carry much gear with 300 lb person on it.
I paid 279 for mine brand new. I would definitely pick one up for 100 if i could, just to have an extra for friends. Just make sure its still in good shape and not too beat up.
@@t.j.outdoors3961 loveshop.fun/product/tamarack-angler-10-ft-fishing-kayak-paddle-included-90818/ i found the same kayak here for $100 not sure about the site though. Great video man.
Im a 13 year old kid 5'5 and 120 pound but growing and I'm looking for a good kayak to get into kayak fishing in lakes where I live. I also fish for stripers at least 75 days every summer and was looking for a little something to get me off the beach. Would this kayak work for that, I've seen reviews that say it's cheap plastic that scratches and I can't bring it in chop.
Ive beat and banged mine a lot at this point. The hull is made of a good plastic that takes a beating. I also have a teton(upgraded tamarack) that fell off my roof rack at 70 mph on the interstate and survived with just scratches. Hull is durable! I would be concerned about bringing it in over some waves though. I have had it out in the gulf a few times, but only on flat water days. But not many lightweight 10' kayaks do well with that condition. It is not a fun paddle against the wind and tide, but again, not many kayaks are.
Thanks so much!! I’m defenitely purchasing this kayak, and probably won’t use it much in the waves. I have some sit-in non fishing kayaks that do ok so I’ll try this kayak without any gear and see if it works, like you did. And wow, this thing sound super durable.
For me it is. Pretty common to have kayak in one hand, poles/paddle/gear bag in the other. Part of the reason these kayaks are so good, easy to load/unload by yourself.
I hate to say that what works for me will definitely work for you. I'm bigger and stronger than your average guy, so what's easier for me may not be so easy for the average guy. May need to set it down for a minute to rest, but it should be able to. The furthest I have carried it was about 1000 feet from my vehicle down an embankment by a bridge to launch. I would think about a cart if I was carrying it that far consistently. Especially if you are planning to carry a lot of gear. 1 trip with kayak loaded on a cart with all your gear, is going to be a lot faster than 2 trips without it.
I have only been in the water on this kayak during the making of this video. I think its a fine kayak. Stay away from sundolphins for sure. Pelicans are similar to lifetime. I haven't been in any expensive kayaks so I don't know if they would do better or not. I would suggest taking swimming classes and becoming a better swimmer first if you want to get into kayaking. No excuse for anyone over the age of 10 to not be a decent swimmer...
picked one up off facebook market place for 250. Much more stable than the ascend fs10 (ofc ik sit in vs sit on top) but i also weigh 265lbs. holds me up pretty well, just ordered a stadium seat, if anyones interested the correct size of stadium seat is 17 inches
I had the same issue. I took five minutes to fix. Drilled two hole in each side of the clips and ran two zip ties through the holes over the seat legs. Now I can lean back all the way without the coming out of the clips.
My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!
Again. Another lol okay for you as well. More people are in kayaks then ever. If you think its just a dying fad, just proves how out of the loop you are. Are jon boats nice? Yeah, they are. Are they for everyone? No they aren't.
yeah, I would not stand up on my tamarack, maybe now with all the mods I made to it, it is much more stable, go ahead and check out my channel, and If you like it, please go ahead and subscribe. I just subscribed to your channel.
I do it on occasion. I don't do it for long though, thats for sure. Thanks for the comment! Sorry for the delay, this just now showed up in my comment feed!
@@t.j.outdoors3961 Good enough! I have an Old Town Topwater 120 on the way. I'll be able to do backflips on it if I ever learn how to do backflips but I'm kinda short and kinda overweight so I doubt that'll happen ever.
w/e u do, do not do this if you have nothing on your yak, and ur doing this test purpose only just like this guy then go for it but for most people your gona lose all your shit ! LOL
Eh, I've had my cooler, rods, and some other gear on it and and stood up just fine. I wouldn't do it in wake or swift current, but its okay in calmer water.
I mean, yeah. But anyone is going to be more stable in a wider kayak. Not just a tall person. I don't think there is a much more stable kayak out there on the market for the price. I'm not saying these are the best kayaks out there. But if all you need is something light, cheap, going to keep you floating, is easy to throw on a roof rack with 1 person, and durable, these are definitely worth a look.

SORRY 4 CAPS, DO YOU THINK THIS KAYAK CAN HOLD A 300LBS THANKS FOR VIDEO
Yeah, I think it would. I know I have had over 300 pounds in it before (myself + gear). But I wouldn't want to carry much gear with 300 lb person on it.
How much you paid for that?! I found that kayak for $100 bucks and im kinda worried if it worth buying!
I paid 279 for mine brand new. I would definitely pick one up for 100 if i could, just to have an extra for friends. Just make sure its still in good shape and not too beat up.
T.J. Outdoors i found brand new, but i the website looks weird! Im gonna try to share the link so you can see!
I would hesitate at that price online. Sounds like a scammy price to me. About 180 is the cheapest I've seen these models new.
@@t.j.outdoors3961 loveshop.fun/product/tamarack-angler-10-ft-fishing-kayak-paddle-included-90818/ i found the same kayak here for $100 not sure about the site though. Great video man.
How much was it I’m looking at one the same that is 100 bucks
I got mine for $278.
You think its safe to take the lifetime angler in the ocean?
I wouldn't recommend it!
So I weigh 245 I'm about 5 ft 10 would this be a good kayak for me . Want to fish off of it
I'm 6'2, 240 lbs. I think you will be just fine unless you are needing to carry 60+ lbs of gear with you!
Thanks that just sealed the deal.
So just purchased this beauty for 150 thanks for the info on angler 100 kayaks. Its awsome
Kenneth Rich 150? How? I paid 275$ dang haha
Found it on Facebook market place and picked it up came with paddle ,life jacket and whisle...
3:23 my dude got that Zach Galifianakis swag
"No regrets, that's my motto. That, and everybody Wang Chung tonight!"
What scupper plugs did you use? Does it have the oblong scupper hole grooves with the small holes?
I normally don't use scupper plugs. I do have a set of those ribbed universal ones though that work well.

Ive bumped trees, rocks, and oyster beds. Ive beached it on and drug it across sand, gravel, and mud. Still a good yak 4 years later!
Would you say this kayak is easy to carry by hand? I dont wanna buy the carry cart with wheels loll..
For me it is. Pretty common to have kayak in one hand, poles/paddle/gear bag in the other. Part of the reason these kayaks are so good, easy to load/unload by yourself.

I really like mine
Do u think I could stand up and set the hook really hard
Probably not
i have a tamarack kayak i'd nevet stand up in it because i'm old & chubby wish i was young and thin again it really a great kayak.
Love the kayak! Thanks for the comment!
Dude I have not stopped laughing since I watched this video. I say that to say this. It was a very informative Video thanks you for your time
Thanks for the comment and you are welcome! Glad I could make a few people laugh!
Thanks for tak’n the plunge. Helped make my decision not to purchase. Would you have Recommendation for a poor swimmer?? Thx in advance.
I have only been in the water on this kayak during the making of this video. I think its a fine kayak. Stay away from sundolphins for sure. Pelicans are similar to lifetime.

Good review, what do you think of the Zero Kayak ZK-PØ13?
Never heard of it
I’m 6ft 250lb and only really need 10 lbs of fishing gear at most. Would this hold it?
Yeah. I have had over 300 lbs in mine including camping gear.
Great review...Thank You!
You are welcome!
picked one up off facebook market place for 250. Much more stable than the ascend fs10 (ofc ik sit in vs sit on top) but i also weigh 265lbs. holds me up pretty well, just ordered a stadium seat, if anyones interested the correct size of stadium seat is 17 inches
Did you ever figure out the problem with the tamarack's seat back?
The clip had started to wear out so i got some new ones. Good as new now!
@@t.j.outdoors3961 I'm getting one next week.I was gonna pick it up this weekend but I ended up working all weekend.
I had the same issue. I took five minutes to fix. Drilled two hole in each side of the clips and ran two zip ties through the holes over the seat legs. Now I can lean back all the way without the coming out of the clips.
I also added a foam pad under the seat for added comfort
Thanks for being a man and doing that shit right.

Some of these comments let me know some of you guys don't don't even need to get in a bathtub with a rowboat
Hahaha cracking me up! Thanks for watching and the comment!
Thanks 🙏
I get it. Don't stand up. Thanks. I just ordered one
yeah, I would not stand up on my tamarack, maybe now with all the mods I made to it, it is much more stable, go ahead and check out my channel, and If you like it, please go ahead and subscribe. I just subscribed to your channel.
I do it on occasion. I don't do it for long though, thats for sure. Thanks for the comment! Sorry for the delay, this just now showed up in my comment feed!
why does everyone want to stand up in a kayak?
I bought down rigger so I can stand up Algator hunter Florida tricked me moglee over 20000 years ago
No I will keep my ass down don’t have really fast reflexes
Not the worst idea!
Okay thanks; I’m not buying that one for sure.
The only time I have been in the water was in the filming of this video. Hard to find a kayak you can stand in comfortably under 12' and $500.
lol, thats why you were wet at the beginning of this video
Looks so unstable. I like casting without the worry of falling in.
I've only fallen off this kayak during the making of this video. The yukon is much more stable while standing though.
@@t.j.outdoors3961 Good enough! I have an Old Town Topwater 120 on the way. I'll be able to do backflips on it if I ever learn how to do backflips but I'm kinda short and kinda overweight so I doubt that'll happen ever.

Snap it up!
I applaud you for making it work but this video screams don’t buy one lol
Hahahahahahaha!!! Wow that was awesome!
Thanks for the comment! Love it when I can make people laugh!
There is never a reason to stand...EVER
Out riggers help
If i need to set up something else on a kayak to make it functional, might as well just buy a boat...
He is way to big for that boat
I'm almost 100 lbs under the weight capacity. How exactly am I too big for it?
@@t.j.outdoors3961 I just feel that you are to tall and so that makes your center of gravity higher and the boat less stable when standing
I'm going to be this tall no matter what kayak I am on. Nothing I can do about that.
@@t.j.outdoors3961 yes but a wider kayak will be much more stable
I mean, yeah. But anyone is going to be more stable in a wider kayak. Not just a tall person. I don't think there is a much more stable kayak out there on the market for the price. I'm not saying these are the best kayaks out there. But if all you need is something light, cheap, going to keep you floating, is easy to throw on a roof rack with 1 person, and durable, these are definitely worth a look.
Looks like it's as easy as riding a Greased pig.. LOL.. I hate em all.. Best thing to have if you like spending more time in the water.
Only time i have ever been in the water in mine is during the making of these videos.
My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!
