    Oh man, this is awesome! I've been trying to think of ways to protect my catch from seals/sharks; attach my float line/gun to so I don't lose it; be visible to others; have a place to rest if I cramp up; have a way to carry my gear across cliffs and farmland. I was looking at a float boat but they are so expensive! The only way I could see this improving is if you could cover the catch more. That's where float boats excel. Thanks for the video!

      12'6" if memory serves. I upgraded to the 15' Cobra Tourer for my ultra light kayak. It's the same weight and faster in the water plus it has storage hatches in front and back. Great ultralight yak. I also switched over to Vibe for my lux yak. The Shearwater 125 and Yellowtail 120 are epic.

      @KeenDog87 3 роки тому

      Generally speaking, yes but sometimes blues can be "no spearfishing zones" too where hook and line is OK but spearing isn't. Just be sure to read up on the local regs. Freediving (no spears) is generally OK no matter where you are (not including marinas and stuff like that) but again, check regs and rules.

      Cobra Fishing Navigator. Great super light kayak. However the Cobra Tourer is a step up from it due to how light weight it is, faster (longer) and has two large storage hatches.

      Yes, I understand the importance of that. We certainly are huge proponents of ocean health. We don't even use plastic bottles or single use stuff... I have had my zipties on my anchor for going on 2 years now. I believe it is necessary to use them for safety. If I'm in big swell or a friend needs emergency assistance and diving for my anchor isn't an option, I will without hesitation break the zipties. If there are other products that allow for a similar experience, I'd be happy to switch over to those.
