Summit pole/products the best! In price and quality! Others are probably better in material but for the average joes like me and most im sure, it's summit all day!!!
Good luck Justin! It’s not nearly as bad as I thought it would be but if you have questions shoot them over to me and I’ll do my best to help out. Jdvalentin324@gmail.com Appreciate you bro!
Man I want to pull the trigger on the Panoptix for mine…..I really like the RAM ball mounts too. All my accessories I have mounted on those. Makes it very easy on and off or adjusting. Great work!
With the sale they’re having it’s got me thinking about it too man. I’ll have to go ram mount next time for my finder. I’ve got a yakattack mount for mine but it’s a two handed deal even for small adjustments. Thanks for watching Lucas!
Mine was pretty easy, I agree it was more about making it clean than it was was being hard. I gotta say, it’s just as effective as the 3stack on the front on my Skeeter. I catch fish just as well. I just don’t get there nearly as fast. Im running 200 AH of lithium, so I always have enough power for it and my trolling motor and power pole.
I have the same type setup on my OT AP120. I'm making a modification during this off season. I recently purchased a GLS10 extension cable and will use that to connect and disconnect the black box and transducer and store it in a secure area when traveling and etc.
I hate to be that guy cause I appreciate you guys showing your build, but near the end of video showing how the transducer looks for down and forward imaging is not correct. I’m sure it’s just a case of being in the moment and not thinking but didn’t want any one getting the wrong idea. Good looking build, gave me some good ideas!
Where did you find the extension cord for the network cable I have a 9 pin to a Ethernet but it’s only a foot long I noticed you added an extension. Where can I find that?
I have been messing with livescope for awhile now, everyone talks about interference and ghost tree .. right here that pole will shake and won't stay straight
That system is called Yak Power. I’ve got an installation video for that system also. Absolutely love that set up. Here’s the link for the system and I’ve got a 5% off code also BDF5 bit.ly/41FZ3jo
How much clearance do you have between the side of the kayak and the Summit Pole by using the Ram 6" double sided mount. I am struggling on deciding to buy the 6" or 9" arm. Is 9" too long, or you are happy with the 6" one. Please help me to make the decision. Thanks.

Looks like even the pole has 3d printed parts so they might not hold up over time just depends how rough you are on your equipment…not being negative it’s just how 3d printing works it’s built up layers that don’t handle lateral forces very well.
It’s a 1.5” ram mount for the track and the clamp is a double sided 1.5” ram clamp. Summit Fishing Equipment sells the set up on their site. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching.
What is your avg length of a trip? I have a nacqu 20ah battery and was thinking about disconnecting my GPS puck and using that run for the exact same setup. Have a 93SV graph.
Wow cool I am Boricua we should some day hook up at a lake nearby I’ve been setting up my Panoptics also but differently would love to show you my setup.
That’s the beauty of having a trailer. You can just drop it in and leave most of the gear in the yak. The second option is to load it next to the water.

Great Video! Ive watched it about 3 times today 😂
😂 thanks Larry!

That gentleman does nice work !!! Nice upgrade
Yeah man! Fern is great with the kayak mods and electrical components for sure!
That is super slick mount set up for a yak. Great video
Thanks for watching! Agreed, that mount is crazy slick, especially for that price point.
Great video thanks for the shout out
Thanks Duane! That dad joke was a GEM! 💎
Between the yak power and this video install, my confidence is built up to take on this project. I appreciate the time and effort. Sub'd

Another great video. Great info to help decide on so many decisions for Yak Fishing. Thanks again
Thank you! LiveScope is a game changer but I have yet to do it on my own kayak. It’ll be making its way to me soon 🤞🏽

Great mod! Definitely would be nice to remove it when traveling or staying overnight somewhere.
Thanks for watching 🤙🏽
Thx for video...From northen Sweden 👍

Thank you brother! Appreciate the support!
Before I finish watching I just gotta say, “Nice Hat!”
I own one of those as well. 🧢
One of my favs! Totally forgot to shout Lucas out!
Where did you find the extension cord for the network cable I have a 9 pin to a Ethernet but it’s only a foot long I noticed you added an extension. Where can I find that?
The livescope came with it. Check with the cords. Should be mixed in there.
I have been messing with livescope for awhile now, everyone talks about interference and ghost tree .. right here that pole will shake and won't stay straight
It's been about 1 year since the install. Any modifications? What's your opinion of the Livescope in real world use?
This was on a buddies kayak. I just installed livescope on mine and am getting aquatinted with it still.
Can you’ll put a link where to buy the measuring board holder ?
Yes sir you go! yakgadget.com/collections/track-mounted-accessories/products/bumpboard-holder?variant=41227907104925
@@BeardedDadFishing : I appreciate it, thank you for the link.. By the way, I’m a ma’am.. it’s ok though !!
@@natalia-grace whoops! Sorry! You know what they say about assuming 🙃
Thanks for the support 🤙🏽
That wiring system that Fern uses to turn off Panoptics who makes that?
That system is called Yak Power. I’ve got an installation video for that system also. Absolutely love that set up.
Here’s the link for the system and I’ve got a 5% off code also BDF5 bit.ly/41FZ3jo
Just cut the threaded collar off the transducer cable for a smaller hole.
Should be some split collars and instructions in the box.
Didn’t find any split collars on the box for the trans. Had one for the smaller black box connectors though.
@@BeardedDadFishing I believe that. Garmin probably forgot to put it in the box.
I got one with the LVS32 and two came with the LVS34.
@@ItsDLC that’s wild. Would’ve been incredibly helpful lol
What size Arm and Boat Size Mount Attachment did you use for the Summit Boat mount kit? Thanks and great video!
Thanks for watching! The links are in the description brother. Tight lines!
How much clearance do you have between the side of the kayak and the Summit Pole by using the Ram 6" double sided mount. I am struggling on deciding to buy the 6" or 9" arm. Is 9" too long, or you are happy with the 6" one. Please help me to make the decision. Thanks.
9” would work just as fine. If you’re concerned with clearance I would play it safe and go with the longer mount.
Are there company’s ,that sell kayaks already set up to go ? Like charge the battery only ready ?
You have it outfitted by a professional service. Some places will do that.
@@BeardedDadFishing bought my kayak at bass pro . They won’t do it . Ty for the comment
@@Trump2024musthappen you may be a able to find a local outfitter that would do it. Look up marine outfitters local to you.

Awesome video. I found the transducer pole on the website but what’s the actual piece that attaches the pole to the ram arm?
Thanks brother! Here’s the piece that connects the pole to the ram arm.

Thank you so much!
where did u get the 3d printed clamp that holds the transducer arm and attaches to the ram ball mount clamp.
Thanks for watching!

What kind of Ram mount are you using to connect to the transducer pole? What clamp goes around the pole?

@@BeardedDadFishing thanks!
What batter did you use
Battery
amzn.to/3NJcNG6
What size is the pole? It looks like Summit has three sizes now.
18-36" would work fine on most kayaks. If you wanted to play it safe, 24" - 60" would be way more than enough.
What amp battery are you running and how many hours have you been running without killing the battery?
12ah lithium has last every fishing trip so far.
What is your avg length of a trip? I have a nacqu 20ah battery and was thinking about disconnecting my GPS puck and using that run for the exact same setup. Have a 93SV graph.
8 hrs or tournament hours
Any reason to go garmin instead of hummingbird which is compatible to old town Minn kotas
I just like garmin because I know it but I’ve heard great things for humminbird too. Their 360 is top notch.
How is Humminbird compatible with the iPilot on the AutoPilot? I thought they couldn't connect to each other.
Yes I found that out.@@XploreAz
Wat is the black box for ?
Live view Panoptix, you don't have live view without it, otherwise it's just a fishfinder/chartplotter.
Jay are you located in PA I’m in Stroudsburg I noticed Fern’s shirt says Lehigh valley network. I have the 106 MK.
Yes sir! I’m in Whitehall. Fern used to be in Bethlehem before he moved down to GA.
Wow cool I am Boricua we should some day hook up at a lake nearby I’ve been setting up my Panoptics also but differently would love to show you my setup.
All that stuff on a yak is over doing it . that yak has to be over 200 lb .I can't carry that alone
That’s the beauty of having a trailer. You can just drop it in and leave most of the gear in the yak. The second option is to load it next to the water.
why not?! Yolo! That’s why we have kayak carts haha…. Keep up the good work!!
You don’t carry a bass boat either but you fish in it. Get a trailer, lots of builds on TH-cam. Go for it and don’t be afraid of Kayak weight.
