- Here is a fairly detailed perspective on how to compare kayaks from another when choosing the right kayak for your needs. Anyone who kayaks knows there is a compromise on speed for stability.
I appreciate all the views and support!

What a great review and comparison

@@jklavarta53 thanks I appreciate it. Hopefully showing the difference between the two styles makes it easier for many people choosing the type of kayak that best fits their needs even if it isn’t a Feelfree or Crescent kayak. It’s been tuff to get out and I now have time to get back to kayak fishing and camping. Thanks for the subscribe 🤙
Oh, I meant to also say; That Crescent is very fast for being the dimensions/fishing kayak.. Sure you could get one of those long narrow racing kayaks but they are not the tool for fishing. I've compared it to many kayaks made for fishing and this is almost as fast as my Generation 1 Hobie Quest 13' fishing kayak.
I also have the Crescent LiteTackle (tan) and wife has the Crescent UltraLite. Out of lots of research and trying out several makes, Crescent has been the best. Speed is there but maybe more important is 'ease of paddling.' The hull design also gives it great maneuvering with little effort.
@@jdock32778 you are very correct!
I own the same Lite Tackle as you. Mine weighs all of 75 pounds without the seat. As long as the water is deep enough to keep the keel from dragging, the Crescent is an awesome machine!! And I agree as for paddling up stream, the Crescent cuts easily through the water. It's one of my favorite to paddle in deep enough water.
Loving the channel Chet.. Tough choice between the kayaks.. The seat that raises is super cool vs the platform riser seat.. The storage space is better in the larger yak.. Good information on advantages of each model..
Thanks. I will say, the height on the lifting seat makes a long day on the water much easer!
I just sold off my feelfree for a crescent primo, the feelfree is made of junky plastic, is waaaay to heavy, hard to paddle, i just never wanted to use it! Only OK if you leave it at a lakeside camp in my opninion.
@@bradleecaldor6567 yes it is heavy but I did find them well built. However it is hard to beat the Crescent line or any Kayak that is built lighter and glides faster. I camp with my Kayak in rivers so the Crescent is ideal. Looking forward to another camping trip with the Crescent this weekend and a video should be posted soon. Thanks for the comment and checking out the video. 🤙
Great comparison. Do you think the lite tackle could work for a one man throw in the bed of the truck and go to the lake for a quick afternoon trip? or is the craft too big that? Also do you this thing would be nice in flat water?
I would most defiantly recommend it for that. I can flip my LiteTackle up over my head to throw it on a roof rack and haul it on my car but even more easy to load in a truck as I do usually. That kayak works fantastic on flat water. So far of all kayaks the LiteTackle is the most versatile to paddle and throw and go that I have used. I recommend it.
@@YakAngling Thank you for the reply! I am between the lite tackle, CK1, and Primo. Any insight or opinions you're willing to impart?
@@PhillyFanatic1 I have heard the CK1 may be a bit more stable on flat water because the kayak haul design and if that's what you fish the most I would consider it especially if you consider standing to sight fish or the need to stretch your legs a bit. Also the CK1 is a few pounds lighter. I however like the closing hatch on the LightTackle myself so ultimately it will be a hard decision but I good kayak either way.
@@YakAngling Thank you for the insight!
