Sweet AF set-up and great video!
Thanks boss!
Ultimate kayak set up that John Rambo would endorse
Ahhh Yeah!
@@wendellfishing There will be some sick kayak set ups displayed at the Expo for the contest
A few good ideas. I have a Catch 120 NXT Pelican, and the only thing I've done is put an 8" dry hatch in the rear, and added extra pad-eyes all over. I'd love to install a transducer/fish finder... no so much for the fish, but water temp and depth/bottom contours. Instead of a kayak crate, I use a cooler, and put a divider inside. Gear extra stuff goes in there, and the other side is an ice pack/snacks/water. (if I need to throw a fish in there, no big deal).
Great ideas Boss!
I have that kayak as well. I'm doing the back hatch this spring, a kayak anchor rig and picked up a kayak sail. For the back of the seat I us a molle sheet so I can put whatever I want on there like a water/hydration pouch. I'm building an under seat drawer and looking at throwing on a trolling motor.
My guy...how have you not switched out the inflatable sidekick wheels to the railblaza ones? I had such a hard time putting the original wheels on at the end of the day 😅
I hear ya... I drag my kayak over from pretty gnarly stuff and want the wheels to give vs my track mounts. You are correct.. after a long day.. getting the inflatable wheels down and in the slot is a pain. When are they going to makke hydraulic switches for the sidekicks?
Very good video. I have my Slayer 13 rigged almost the same. I use strong magnets on the inside of my cockpit to keep forceps and clippers handy. I also have a rod holder on the back of my crate for my light/safety flag when needed.
Thanks Will! Good tip!
Just brought my first yak 2 days ago, itching to get out and so Im absorbing tons of info until then. Those NATIVE KICKSTANDS are the coolest thing I've seen so far with any kayak! While mine is 40 lbs barebones, I can see loading up at the car and then carrying will be the best short and long term way to do things. Thank you for this, maybe a small thing in your whole video and build but it just changed my life in more ways than you can imagine!
You will absolutely love them
Thank you for the good ideas
Most welcome 😊
I fought getting a net for awhile but putting a hook from a Spro rat through my thumb landing a 3 1/2 bass was enough to convince me it was a good idea !! lol
Yikes.. I put it off for years as well brother
@@wendellfishing lol all part of fishing !! It’s not a matter of if but when . Eventually you will hook yourself lol
To add to the reason to use a lithium battery vs lead acid, with a lead acid you shouldn't let the charge go below 50% or it degrades the battery. A lithium on the other hand, can almost be run into the ground.
Great redemption. At 18:30 your phone lit up and all you can see is what appears to be a Selfie? LOL Peddle drive blocks full view of your phone. Then at 20:34 while discussing the Rogue phone tether it shows your screen saver being a photo of yourself and wife (I assume or daughter?). I believe Chad Hoover did a video on kayak weight limits. I've Never weighed everything I put in/on my kayak including myself to see if I exceed it or how close I am? Great video as always.
Nice. Can’t wait to see this one
Hope you like it!
Smashing video keep uk the good work an posldcast love them both good all round
Much appreciated boss
Love these videos!!
Glad you like em boss!
Great video especially the DYIs which I like doing myself.
Awesome! Thank you!
I had no idea Duncan Trussle was into tournament kayak fishing, nice set up man!
Ha! I have gotten than a few times. Love it
sweet setup
Thanks boss
Hey Wendell, I am subscribed and love your channel. Your video is one of the best outfitted videos where you provide links to everything a kayak maniac could want. I fish the coastal waters of Maine and run into a wad of seaweed every once in awhile. Like lily pads, it stops me dead in the water, I have to pull up my PDL prop drive and clear it, I am sure you know all about that with lily pads also. What do you do to clear your rear electric drive motor, assuming that you can collect a bunch back there too. With that motor not in reach, are you done for the day until you get back to shore?
I usually just put the reverse cord.. lift it out of the water... and then run it full speed in reverse and that will clear it much of the time.
What is the opinion on placing a stabilizer (AKA outrigger) on a kayak? For me I am thinking of creating a DIY using the boat fenders for the purpose of safety in Tampa Bay? Also it is a no drill version attaching via pvc pipe in the rod holders on my jakson hosa kayak
It's funny hearing him say that bait is expensive. Coming from someone who shoots a lot.
You got me there
On the RAM phone mount, does it come with the hardware needed to screw it into the hole in the Propel drive? Or would I have to buy an attachment separately?
You will need the hardware: here ya go th-cam.com/video/HJmHhzBGbKk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=srHV9-yI4PyKMlJ3
Thanks man, I appreciate the help!
Dude have you done a video of actually launching this thing? What's your process with all the gear?
Not yet
Cool rig/gear D.
Thanks boss!
That sucker is decked out for sure. I’m curious how much weight (kayak+gear+angler) that NK180 is pushing and what the top speed is. Thanks.
I can't help you on the weight.. something that I am now interested in. But the NK18p pushes me at 4.5MPH constant
Very nice setup D, next is that FFS 😊.
$$$$$
@@wendellfishing you got half of it already with that fish finder 👀
Good video great setup now get rid of that crate LOL I know u love it though
I do love that thing… I will upgrade when someone makes a bungee top
Ive got a silly question as im goimg to get into a Angler Kayak for obvious reasons. Are electronics like fish finder and motors necessary? For a beginner anyway weather in a tourney or just fishing the yak for more experience? Awesome video by the way 👏
Not silly, for a beginner I recommend starting out bare and then as you get into purchase the items that make it a more enjoyable experience for you. That’s all that matters
🎣tight lines
Thanks boss
I'm looking to get my first pedal kayak, I've been watching a lot of your videos. If you had to suggest your top 2 fishing pedal kayaks, what 3 would that be?
Keep it under $2500
Hey boss, I only recommend 1 PD kayak and it's the one I have. P127 from Bonafide..
Man what’s your thought on the BKC tandem dual trolling motors? Looking for something for wife and I
I personally would never buy a BKC
@@wendellfishing what tandem would you use preferably trolling motor
Do you have any videos for your sidekick installation?
Sorry.. not yet!
@@wendellfishing I’ll be watching for it! Thanks!
Does the rudder turn well while using motor?
Absolutely..... not :)
of course i answer only other person calling me is my fishing buddy an what better then fishing alone fishing with a buddy. plus makes better content
