    Can we get a updated review of the RIOT MAKO and how it is holding up to fishing out there? And do you think the Hobie outback 2020 is more stable than the Mako?

    • @NickFish007
      @NickFish007  4 роки тому +2

      The updated version of the Riot Mako is great! I'd highly recommend it. I love their pedal drives 👍

    • @NickFish007
      @NickFish007  4 роки тому +3

      Hobie is more stable and tough, Mako is more fun and easier to take out and use. The Mako is great for surf launching too

    Got a good set up brother, free tip for all, use used Cordial containers (spray paint safety yellow) for floats. Cheap as, low profile and you can stack more nets. Avoid round large diameter floats/buoys.
