Wild Waters: Maine
Embark on an epic kayak fishing adventure along Maine's rugged coastline, where four friends push the boundaries of striped bass fishing using innovative kayak techniques. From stalking tailing bass in shallow tidal creeks to navigating treacherous swells and uncovering hidden fishing spots, this gripping narrative reveals the raw passion and unexpected challenges of surf fishing in one of America's most unforgiving maritime landscapes. Experience the thrill of sight-casting to massive schools of bass, gathering fresh clams, and exploring inaccessible waters that most anglers can only dream about. Join Scott Geissler and his crew as they transform traditional shore fishing with cutting-edge kayak technology, offering an intimate look at the obsessive pursuit of the perfect catch. This isn't just a fishing story-it's a testament to adventure, friendship, and the unbreakable spirit of Maine's coastal anglers.

    It would be cheaper to buy a used bass boat, and you’d catch more fish too.

    I used to kayak a lot..... only 100% paddle. No motor and would surf launch in La Jolla California. We would go miles out 100% human powered and catch 20-30-LB yellowtail it was a hell of a work out , it was a sport, and It was fun. Our kayaks were 15-16' long and fast and looked nothing like these wide, fat, stumpy designs. Now I have Inflatable kaboat and go 20 mph fully loaded and can go anywhere I have gas to go. My new boat and used motor and 7" fish finder cost less than this rig and the capability difference just blows this thing out of the water with an a-bomb....I just don't see the reason to be in the middle when an inflatable is about 1000$ for a really nice one. a 3.5 outboard weighs 47 lbs. There are a lot of micro skiffs that are outboard capable but you're still basically sitting down. I understand if kayak is a sport and your in a Kayak fishing tournament but you can not even paddle or pedal these and it should be classified as a boat because that is what you must register it as. I guess if you fish a swamp or something maybe an inflatable is not for you but I just don't see a huge market for this kind of thing. Hobie turned kayaks into boats with the PA and this is just the full circle. There is no way this should be classified as a kayak for competitive fishing purposes. I'm not sure on the rules but surely motors electric or not should be banned.. DMV says it's a boat. My kayaks were 60-70 lbs and roof topped on cars with ease.

    Are you using the new foot steering that’s coming out? I can’t get my PWR 129 with the NK 180 pro using foot steering. I’ve different spots on the steering triangle but it makes it overly sensitive at slower speeds or barely turns at higher speeds. The only thing I haven’t tried yet is locking the motor so it doesn’t turn and using the rudder to steer.

    Agree @ SteegeFish : this is not a kayak so why not just classify it differently. There is no way that the average person is going to drag this out of the water and load it into a pickup bed. It’s time for drive on trailers that accommodate this type of fishing rig. Love it but it’s not a kayak.
