This a great boat. Exactly what I've been looking for.
Love this hybrid! It's everything you want form a canoe in a kayak size
I've been thinking of one of these for duck hunting
There are guys on youtube that show how to set the blinds up on this kayak. Pretty cool set up!
That conduit looks like electrical plastic conduit. You can get a premade elbow that should work well for the bend on the keel guards.
You are 100% on both points. I already have the pre bent elbows in my shop tonuse when I get around to redoing them
you can cut a piece of a 5 gallon bucket at mold that for your keel guards too. It shapes pretty well if you get it good and hot.
That's a great idea. I have melted 5 gallon buckets to pack 4 wheeler fenders before too. Love 5 gallon buckets for plastic work!
That's what I did. I melted HPDE plastic and built up the keel and bow with extra plastic. I never try standing on this. I can't imagine bow hunting standing on this, get ready for a bath
Great video, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Great kayak my friend!! I got 1 as well its fantastic for my fishing and hunting needs. I put depth finder and a few other things. Overall I'm happy!
Good to know. I'm excited to get some free time and get mine out on the water!
I bought the H10 in titanium at Bass Pro in Atlanta one hour drive today January 29. I will not use the mesh covers either. Do like the saddle bags. Be sure to get a longer paddle. Look forward to your future actual use videos.
I got to pay Covid price! $860 😩
9 months after this video.
Sucha great boat. I have been using mine a bunch. You can see it in use in my georgia public hog vlog 2 vide I put out last week
I looked at those after this video I liked them but I ended up going with the pelican premium catch 100, I found it to be a little more stable. And the ascend here was a bit more for the 10footer. But those Ascends were sweet.
Awesome
Subbed because I liked the video and I have to support my fellow michigonian out doors man!! If you are near Lewiston, I don’t know for sure if the ace hardware is still a Husqvarna or not, last time I bought a saw they were but that was back in 2012 so it’s been a while
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video! Will check out that ace next time I'm up that way
I have same kayake, it's a work horse. You can haul a lot of gear. It's my mini canoe. I have never flipped it. As fat as standing up? It's really hard.. not really good for standing up.
Yep love mine too. I can stand in it very well. It's tough to get off the seat and stand. But once standing it's super stable for its size.
Do you have any additional modification or additions to your kayak?
Just the keel guards other wise I just use it as it is.
Great looking kayak. You always preach 3 points of contact when climbing. I’d suggest at least one hand on the wheel! Lol
Hahaha. You are correct. But I do have some great skills steering with my knee as well. So that kinda counts as a point of contact
@@SamkoTradBow LOL...still doing better with one knee than half of these other wackos on the road! Cheers
@@RasOntario hahaha
At this point, do you wish you'd gone with an H12 or something else? I've been looking at the H12 for a while now, but H10s have been popping up used a lot here lately.
No. Love this boat. Use it all the time. It fits in the bed of a truck so nice and easy, holds more weight than the 12 and is lighter. I love the h10. Will never get rid of it
Im looking to buy a hunting kayak. After a year do you still like this H10. Maybe a 1 yr review would be a good video
Yep its excellent. And of what's available to buy new today I would say it's the best solo hunting boat available
@@SamkoTradBow if i buy one i hope i can stay in my lane with it. I'm with you Jason. Im sick of feeling like im doing something wrong if i shoot split finger and just shoot where im looking. Been shooting trad since 97. Last year at ETAR i saw someone with a short stableizer on their bow. Back in the day they would have been told to remove it or leave.
@Bruce Snyder lol. Yep that phase makes my blood boil almost as much as shopping area roads that force me to go a half mile out of my way to exit. Feel like being herded like cattle🤣. Times are changing in the traditional world and the target guys sure are trying to take over..😅
Do you think a deer would fit in there or quarter it up in the field?
It would but would be a tight fit. And a pain to get the deer in and out of it. I'd rather bone the deer in the field and put the game bag and head in the boat. Would be much eaiser
Where can I buy the covers for the storage? Mine did not come with them, lol
You would have to call ascend and they would send them to you
Ascend
What do u want for that front cover i bought a used h10 and it didnt come with it
Not gonna sell the cover. Besides it's down in Georgia at my place down there with the kayak and I won't be down there until winter.
Cool boat and mods
How to you like it compared to your canoe?
Don't know yet. Have not got it on the water as water just thawed out here. But I watched a few videos comparing it to my exact canoe and they said the kayak is much more stable but a little slower.
How has the gator patch held up for you?
Sucks! Way to soft and drag it on any cement grinds it fast. The pvc is so much better. Will be putting a pvc one over the gator patch
@@SamkoTradBow Thanks for the response!
Prices went up on these kayaks to $859.99. Do you think they are still worth it at that price?
I love mine. the shape and carrying capacity along with the compact size and light weight makes me think id pay that for sure.
It's great, a mini canoe... but it is NOT a stand and fishing kayak, that's a crazy claim. I bet 1 our of 10 guys could actually stand up and fish this all.day
if you were to shoot a deer or pig where would you put it for the row back to the car?
Yes. Have done that with quite a few big bucks in my little canoe. But I always bone the deer or pigs out before putting them in the boat. I can't see any advantage to fight to load and unload the animal in and out of a boat or fight for space in there with the animal. So much easier to bone animal in the field and throw a couple game bags in thw boat.
@@SamkoTradBow I didn’t think about quartering em out. Good idea. Been thinking of getting one but haven’t been able to pull the trigger yet!
@@SamkoTradBow what game bags do you use?
@@TooTallOutdoors caribou game bags are my favorite. Allen game bags are also good and available even at Walmart. And large pillow cases work great to. I like the pillow cases for hogs as I usually don't put the hogs in my pack (just use a small mtn bike pack while hog hunting) so I can swing the pillow case full of meat right over my shoulder.
Do you ever do any fishing? I'm a big fisherman and was thinking if you did some fishing videos that would be cool! Like the content, I'm not knocking on ya just wondering!
I dont know anything at all about fishing. I don't eat much fish so never really got into it. I actually learned how to clean fish when my kids were little so I could teach them and take them fishing. But I know very little about it. When I do retire I'm going to learn to fly fish as trout is one of the few fish I do like!
Would not stand up in the kayak!!!!
It's not that stable for standing... also put pipe insulation around on bottom of seat to protect it wearing thru the boat..
I was just standing in mine last week down in Georgia. Worked perfect. But im a short guy with low center of gravity! Great tip on the pip insulation on the seat! I'm gonna do that next time I'm down there where the boat is. Thank you.
@@SamkoTradBow I love the kayak... I got caught going against the wind 25 mph and it was tough paddling against it... it's worth every penny so stable! Haven't flipped mine yet have owned it for a year.. I never use the front or back cover or bags, nice add ons but much easier without them in the boat. I should probably take off the clips front and back, best place for my net and cooler.
@@lipfishingthosebass5812 yep I already ripped the bags and the covers off and threw thwm in a box in the attic in case I ever sell it. Wish the clips were screwed in but they are rivets and not worth my time to drill them out. Lol
779 at cabellas
That's crazy. Should be the same price as basspro and cabelas
When I was watching I was curious. I live in Hudsonville Michigan and go to the Cabela’s there in Grandville off 44th St. so I thought I would check the price. I figured the same thing I thought it would be the same as Bass Pro shops. Because of the fact Bass Pro shops bought them out. Either way cool set up buddy
@@brendenwolford just to check I'd call a basspro and see what rhier price is. The cabelas by you would have to match it if you found a better price.
@@SamkoTradBow prices went up right about at the time of this video due to materials shortage
@@briandudasko6742 it's not a material shortage, it's a people not working problem. Runs all the way down the line from sales to trucking to manufacturing to raw materials. So sad our country is like this now.
