Man I'm an old guy, (56) but I love your channel. I fish. Bass, Crappie, catfish. I just fish, ans I love fishing in my kayak ( Old Town Salty 120 PDL) I am looking forward to more of your videos in a kayak. Flukemaster and E2 are gonna be jealous....lol Keep it up. Live the dream.
I’ve had a Native Titan 10.5 since 2019 and absolutely love it! There are quite a few upgrades you can find on Facebook groups, seat risers, aluminum handles with ball bearings. All kinds of great upgrades. I’m in the process of rigging mine with a Lowrance HDS 9” and Motorguide Xi3 with spot lock as we speak and can’t wait for I to warm up. Something tells me a livescope will be coming next as you make it look so informative. New subscriber and love the few videos I’ve watched so far. Keep them coming and thank you!
For future reference on the pike, you can grab them by the gill flaps with a finger in each. It keeps their mouth open and allows more control without hurting yourself or the fish.
I just got the Hoodoo Impulse 120. All I really want to add to it is lights and a fish finder. I also just got a Tundra with 8ft bed so the kayak fits well
That’s the dream kayak right there. I’ve only got a base model wilderness systems radar 115. Looking forward to adding the pedal drive, some electronics, and the power pole
I use a 9' pontoon boat. I have a Striker 4 cv on it. Custom rod holders. Going to make my own down rigger for trout season :) Just got done killing it. Thanks for the help!
Lipping that Pike, Yikes haha! Kayaks are definitely fishing machines but require a little extra work. My wife and I enjoy our Old Town Sportsman 120s. We recently went to Lake St Clair MI and had a blast catching those giant smallies.
Just a thought - consider a small daypack for your boxes that you can fit into your black box. Put some pliers and scissors in one of the external pouches. Be prepared! 😊
Berley Pro makes seat risers for native kayaks, but honestly if you or a friend has a 3d printer, there are open source files out there for homemade risers or you can get a sheet of 3/4" starboard and make them the old fashioned way. Also, for the front fishfinder mount, get a short Hobie H-rail kit and run it across the front section and get the h-rail fishfinder mounts for it. Quick and easy.
@@TylersReelFishing yes. Unless they have changed it the aluminum bar just fits into the plastic mounts. You should be able to pull it apart and trim the aluminum with a hacksaw or cutoff wheel.
I’m Really Looking Forward To Seeing What You Come Up With To Mount The Graphs On The Front. I’m Currently Trying To Figure This Out As Well With My Native Pro Max
Tyler, what do you suggest on 8’ pond prowler when it comes to adding electronics, but keeping the weight light? I have a Minn Kota 55 lb thrust and as it is the weight is heavy and getting to spots takes forever and drains the battery. I want to add electronics to the front, but space is limited and without a trailer I have to load and unload empty. Anything I have in the boat I need to put in and take out each load and unload. Best solution: get a bass boat (lol) but not in the cards right now. Thoughts on what I can do? I fish 4-5 days a week up here in MA, and with fall coming that certainly isn’t going to slow down. Need to maximize the time I have and ease getting in/out. Fishing blind may be fun, but it can certainly set me back finding flats/structures/etc. Thank you! Your videos have been super helpful!
Nice set up. I've been kayak fishing for almost 8 yrs now & still haven't owned any electronics. I'm planning on adding a graph sometime soon if I can decide which one to get? Stuck between Echomap Ultra 106 with lvs34 & Solix10 with mega 360?? Always keep couple pairs on pliers in your yak, standard & long nose & a cutter so u can cut through big hook if you need to & a good long handled net. Sucks loosing 5+ pound fish because u didn't have a decent net!!! Bring what u need but nothing extra, less is more in a kayak even when your in a PA12 360 like I fish from. Seems every year I've taken more stuff out of it than added
Greetings and Salutations I want to purchase a kayak for my teenagers 16th birthday I think that getting a custom fiberglass molding for the kayak will be the same thing in the direction of my kiddos working for themselves Plus all 3 of us having a kayak will be cooler 😎 Great upload Thanks 😊
This video helped a lot! Im about to get the P127 and you saying you don’t pack a lot of gear made me realize I don’t either so looking forward to some sick upgrades… Tyler bro… pliers man haha we don’t want to see you lose a pinky
That was some sick footage keep slaying them bass bro 😎 the tug is the drug! Personally I been getting out dangling for smallies. Used to be one of them natural brook trout guys! But filming videos and meeting new anglers has really opened me up to all kinds of fisheries!
I bought a barely used olds town sportsman 120PDL with a bunch of mods. the kayak was under retail and got all the upgrades & graph for free at the same price. the power pole sounds like a super sweet idea. but idk with me using it 1-3 times a week can justify the expense :(
Good video for you young guys that can sit low in a boat like that. At 70 get me up high or I can't go. May be time to face the fact I only fish from banks now!
I purchased it from Dugout Bait & Tackle. I thought they made it, but they really just bought the parts from a different company and sold it as their own, but I had to go to the store just to pick up parts to complete it. I think it's the best out there, but beware it might not come with everything you need

Oh also just angle the wheels up and put them back on the boat while you are out. Should fit the wheels just fine between the black box and power pole.

@@TylersReelFishing Okay! Thanks for all the info. My wife said, “if you’re going to fish those kayak tournaments, you’d better get the live scope, or those guys will always win.” 😳 uh, ok, boss. Whatever you say, honey. 🤣
Going down the lake today and had a crappie fisherman sitting in the boat lane fishing so I went around him and hit a stump tearing up my prop and lower unit. Could you recommend anyone that could fix it with a fast return?
Wow man,you may hate'em but I'd love to catch a pike or musky, something we hate where I'm from are those freakin gars, they'll eat your bait before your ever able to catch a bass, somtimes it's very frustrating when you can't stop them and you'll be catching them back to back
Hey my guy that their kayak is rated for 150lb lucky you won't sink cuz wind and waves sheewww it's over so add extra side pontoons for weight. good luck you don't go down. ooo btw make sure you tie all down I lost 1300 worth of gear I know. good luck again. 007
An expensive Kayak like a Native Titan 10 is not meant to be a kayak you drag through the woods and beat up. I’d buy a $200 Walmart kayak if I wanted that
@@chrispeterson1247 I do the same with mine, about 1200 invested. This rig is well over 8000 where I'm from. Now would you roll it over rock? , lol. Id be cringing like nails on a chalkboard.

I hope you do more videos fishing from the Yak

I recently got into kayak fishing in the past three months. I love your channel and can't wait to see more.
So cool! Let’s learn together!
I just got the Hoodoo Impulse 120. All I really want to add to it is lights and a fish finder. I also just got a Tundra with 8ft bed so the kayak fits well
I have a hoodoo element 100s, and I love it for fishing ponds and creeks.
Excellent on water video, I look forward to a bunch more.

Awesome video. I also fish with a kayak but I don't have a pedal system yet so I only paddle. Need more kayak videos!
Dude, that thing is so sweet!!!!

To “livescope them on a jerk bait” was great. I hadn’t heard livescope em as a verb yet. I’m going to borrow your saying

Live scope on a kayak is pretty awesome cool seeing you do some kayaking would've been great on your 100 ponds episodes
Great videos you make sir. Keep up the good work.
I fish from a Bonafide SS127. I don’t have live scope or side scan, I use a Garmin Hook Reveal mounted to the dry box on the center of the kayak
Awesome!
Love it!! One takeaway for me.... always carry first aid with liquid bandage.
Exactly!
Kayak fishing is not what it used to be for sure. We add so much stuff to them. I got a hobie outback
Was watching you holdn pike by mouth, thinkn does he know something I don’t know? Guess not. Also wonder if way to make diy powerpole.

You need a solar panel to charge that battery. That would be cool off grid kayak.
Nice rig!
Thanks homie!
Do you have a link to the transducer arm you are using?? Please and thank you!!

Once again lol
this is awesome!
Amazing video like always. Have a great day.
How’s your finger
Thanks Caden! Finger is alright haha
What was the jig worm?
Got that video coming out soon!
Throw a newport vessels motor on there too!😀
Thought about it!

@@TylersReelFishing thanks man, appreciate you- got my yak comin in tm.
Could u ever find your lure? Do you have lvs32 or 34? How was it controlling it by hand?
Lv32, and yes I did. Still have some fine tuning to do though
Nice setup Tyler. What's the difference between a jig worm and a shaky head? Those northern largemouth are so healthy looking.
You’ll see in a video coming out soon!
Oh also just angle the wheels up and put them back on the boat while you are out. Should fit the wheels just fine between the black box and power pole.
I will do that if I’m launching somewhere public. This was just off of my uncles dock
Awesome!! Been waiting on some great kayak/bass fishing videos. Love the live scope setup. Where’d you find the pole for the live scope transducer?

East tx area
Man, I’m sorry to hear that. I dont sadly! Not that connected out there
About how much total and are u gonna sell it and even more so will u be customizing kayaks in the future lol
No, I will not be selling this one, at least I don’t think so
@@TylersReelFishing u only answered one question 🥴
Sure wish you had some footage of that old kayak you had that you lost on the highway. I bet someone found it and is fishing with it.
I bet haha
I was wondering if there isn't any crayfish in any of my ponds, will a crayfish imitation still be effective or not.
At the least, the fish will think it looks delicious. They may have no clue why, but it does haha
Did you have a paddle with you?
No
Thank you!
@@TylersReelFishing Thank you very mutch... have a nice Start of the week.... see you….
Love from Kush
Can’t wait to see more kayak fishing. Nice set up man.
Wow man,you may hate'em but I'd love to catch a pike or musky, something we hate where I'm from are those freakin gars, they'll eat your bait before your ever able to catch a bass, somtimes it's very frustrating when you can't stop them and you'll be catching them back to back
I love pike and musky when I’m targeting pike and musky
Enter a kayak fishing tournament and show tips on how to win.
Hey my guy that their kayak is rated for 150lb lucky you won't sink cuz wind and waves sheewww it's over so add extra side pontoons for weight. good luck you don't go down. ooo btw make sure you tie all down I lost 1300 worth of gear I know. good luck again. 007
No ,it's rated for 500lbs
Don’t flip It! How did you chose the size of your kayak?
I wanted the smallest one I couldn’t flip
I fish out of a 5 foot kayak and I dream of a kayak like that. The five pounders I catch from your videos pull me around!
U never have to pee or poo until the exact moment you set out on your kayak.
That’s so true
That’s sweet, but you really don’t need livescope on a kayak. Now it’s just a small boat instead of a go anywhere, take a beating, plastic tank.
An expensive Kayak like a Native Titan 10 is not meant to be a kayak you drag through the woods and beat up. I’d buy a $200 Walmart kayak if I wanted that
And you opened his mouth I thought, that's a bad idea, and boom, he shook
nice fishing video man! l upload fishing videos too!
That was ballsy to stick your fingers near that pikes mouth lmao. Those teeth are no joke
Tyler’s reel dumb fishing… doesn’t have the same ring to it lol
No, not quite
I fished from a kayak for seven years then switched to a boat. I regret my decision. I caught much better fish from the kayak.
With a 14.5 out of a boat… I don’t know if I will ever be able to say that like you have😂
100% id break that thing in a SECOND
Thanks pavel!

Did you just leave the wheels on the dock? All that money on a fancy new kayak and you don’t know how it works? Stick to the $80k boat maybe.
It’s my uncles dock. I can leave whatever I want there lol. Yeah, I’m learning how it all works. Stop being negative, sheesh
