Pelican Catch Mode 110 TR! (Beginner’s Review)

- I have decided to finally start fishing in a kayak! Being able to access new waters few people are able to fish is certainly appealing. As a beginner to kayaks I definitely have a positive review for this kayak so far! It’s first trip we were able to put the first few fish in the boat. If there are any recommendations for customization or life vests please comment below!

I have same kayak...I put 3/4 inch rubber cane tips on the seat posts...works great 4 pack on Amazon is 6.99
I did that too and it makes a huge difference. Seat is real solid with those cane tips on there
I bought mine over the winter because it was a lot cheaper at the time (20% off on Amazon). Even at the full price of $800 I think this thing is a great deal when you consider that right now most angler kayaks are going to be around $400-450 on average. Maybe you could find one for $350 if you're lucky, but they're usually more. They may be around 10 lbs lighter, but also several inches narrower and can hold much less weight. I think the 110 is the absolute best bang for your buck available and there's so much room to add to it. An anchor/gripper is always good. A quality net. I'd also suggest a rod holder on a track mount. I plan on getting a fish finder for mine this week (mainly for depth/structure), but all-in-all this thing is great because you can either use it as is or modify it how you like relatively easily. Oh, and as others mentioned: 3/4 rubber leg tips are perfect to keep it snug as a bug.
I won mine brand new from an auction for $180 🤑🤑
@@BOZZALLINI you win haha. Even if it was a bare bones basic kayak that's still an amazing deal
@Do0msday yea it came with no paddle and skeg plate was broke but who cares...lol...ordered both..trolling motor,fish finder and all accessories..built pwm speed controller and still have less money in it than if I was to buy a new one from store
I have the same one but have not been on the water yet. Soon I hope as the water is warming up. You can get some plastic chair bases to put on the seat to keep it from moving around. Thanks for sharing!
Good luck! I love the kayak so far!
The models with the skag for tracking work perfectly fine in low water as they have been made to swing up if you encounter an obstacle. Rolling them up and down into place is super easy. The only thing you wouldn't want to do is backup onto shore with the skag down. However, the skag doesn't only help with navigation but it makes the boat more stable as well. It was interesting to see the TR model. The pedal models are the ones to avoid if you are frequently in low water.
I appreciate the insight! And it might have been an irrational worry, but I was concerned if not anchored and I floated backwards or sideways into rock or timber there might have been a chance to break. And after seeing some reviews online where they were shipped and received broken I worried about durability.
I have a NRS CHINOOK PFD it's amazing along as it is USCG certified u should be good get the brightest one u can and a whistle or small air horn and tie down anything u don't want lost but u can do a TON to thus kayak
I have read lots of good things about the NRS life jackets. I am debating over the Chinook vs. Raku.
right on
I put a 55lb thrust Newport vessel on mine and it pulls me around like 4x4. I would recommend an anchor trolley set up, and a couple pad eyes. Maybe a tow rope as well
With a 55 nothing can stop you 😂 I am hesitant to putting holes into the kayak, but will definitely have to look into the anchor trolly. Thanks for the recommendation!
So I bought the Newport Kayak 55lb thrust to go on this kayak. I just bought them at Amazon, how do you manage steering your motor? A tiller or a custom setup?
@@Michael-s2p3p I actually don’t have a trolling motor on mine and exclusively use a paddle. In Wisconsin if I threw a trolling motor on it I would have to also register it. I did look into it before buying the kayak and there seem to be a few kits to help with steering. I might look into adding a trolling motor in the future, but not now. Best of luck!
I put outriggers on mine in the back that fold up when paddling. Standing up and fishing feels as though you can't tip it over.
Cool idea!
Thanks for the video …What kind of rod & reel are you using ?
It is a Curado DC 6.2:1 and a Dobyns Fury 7’ 0” MH fast. The rod is lighter action than a normal MH, so it’s my favorite for minimax chatterbaits and smaller crankbaits.
look into getting an anchor trolly helps a lot to hold you in place in wind thanks
Will definitely look into this. Thanks for the recommendation!
I just got the same one the other day. I’m trying to figure out if the part that comes on it for the skeg is supposed to go on there with the trolling motor attachment or if that completely rids of the skeg when you get the trolling motor or there🤷♂️
I am not 100% sure, but from what I have seen online it’s kinda one or the other.
I have the Kayak with the skeg and its a completely different back bracket then the one for the motor. So one or the other.
It's a one-or-the-other setup. At the end of the day, the model with the skag can still easily be used without the skag and still hold a trolling motor so the advantage is to get the model with the skag. Is there a significant price difference? The skag is not only useful for tracking but also adds some stability. I don't see why the skag would not be used unless you were going white water kayaking, in which case, this is not the right kayak.
Where are you fishing at in this video,,,,I’m also in the 608 and need places to take the yak out
I can’t be giving out secret spots 🤫😂 what I do is just pop open google maps and look for lakes and then check for some sort of public access. Google maps is a game changer. I have found lakes close by that I never knew exhistef. There are so many great opportunities in our whole state! Good luck!
That is a nice kayak you have man. I am looking for a 2nd kayak for a backup kayak for someone who doesn't have a kayak to go out with me in. I think you would be ok standing up on the kayak Once you do more of it. ( practice makes perfect ) but you did very well when you did do it. I also like your Crocs man. Those are great sandals to wear for kayaking 🛶 man. I like how they Float when they come off of your feet 🦶 in the water. I have 6 boys & they all have very wide feet 🦶 & they fit them just fine & they all hate close toes footwear because they crush & hurt there feet 🦶 & toes. I have big & very very Extremely wide feet 🦶 sz15 6E wide ( which is very very extremely wide feet 🦶 ) with very very extremely chubby fat wide toes that are Evenly straight across making my foot very very Extremely wide at 6 1/2 inches wide from my big toe to my lil toe & i have the same problem with my feet 🦶 & toes getting crush with close toes footwear. The only footwear that I can wear is flip flops 🩴which barely & i mean barely fit on my feet 🦶 because my toes are wider than the flip flops 🩴straps. Good video buddy thanks you for sharing it.
Buy a 360 ergo seat that swivels with the tracks
Didn’t know pelican made those. Thanks for the recommendation!
I am thinking this thing would work great for jump/float hunting for ducks in small rivers/creeks.....anyone do that with one of these?
Can you put a gas motor on this?
I had read it was rated up to 2.5hp so I would guess so. I would double check though
need a high back life jacket lets you sit back more comfortably
Agreed! I never would have guessed how annoying it was pulling the lifejacket down from riding up every 15 mins. Any recommendations on a brand?
@@608fishing I'm partial to the Onyx kayak fishing life jacket. It may feel a little 'bulky' at first, but once it forms to you it's comfier. The foam on the back is higher up so it's better for a seat.
@@Do0msday Way cheaper than an NRS too, I’ll have to do a little research before picking. Thanks for the recommendation.
Plenty of automatic/manual inflatable PFD fishing jackets out there for ultimate comfort. Really depends on how much you want to spend and the PFD laws in your region. Not all areas allow for manual inflatable PFDs.
