Nice one Dan, can’t wait to see the mods. My advice would be that whatever you do, keep it as lightweight as possible. Love the standing deck, I really miss that on my GT, the amount of storage in my pod is the trade off I guess, but being able to fish standing up and, most important, stretch your legs and change position during a long day on the water is really good 👍🏼
Have a look at the Yotube channel My Lure Box and watch the Feel Free Lure mods he did to his kayak. I’ve followed a similar style with his and it’s an amazing little modification
First thing I'd do is chuck a keel guard on there, either DIY or buy one, will extend the life of it 😎 I just bought my first fishing kayak and have been making a keel guard out of PVC. Just to prevent any major damage to the hull when loading and unloading in my trailor or when launching/landing. Simple little diy that won't add too much weight 🤙 also think some LEDs in there are a must for the early morning/late evening sesh's.
Thanks for the tips mate! Some keelguard literally arrived at my house today 😂 I was thinking about DIY but thought I’d just go and buy some quality stuff and not risk it as I want this kayak to last for many years to come! Ive thought about the LEDS too! I’ll have to figure something out for sure
Yea for an introductory kayak the Dragon Kayaks are great. Super stable and tough on the underside. I have also just recently got a Viking Ozzie an it will be great for the super skinny creeks and pools where this one may be a bit too big
Love your vids you insporate me on buying Aussie based lures and love your work keep it up and if you can some tips on best aussie made lures holt Mmd anything else or recommendations

Awesome man! Looking forward to seeing what you do to it! Standing and fishing in a kayak is the best 🎣👊
Gonna be a good little project vessel and I’m excited
Nice Yak mate. Look forward to seeing some more kayak fishing from you.
Great kayaks, you'll love it. I have an 11.5 and did the minn kota mod that Johnny Costello did it's a game changer!
Yea mate that’s what I most likely be doing! Watch this space

That thing is an absolute weapon man! Keen to see all the cool shit you get up to with it!
That creek is one of my personal favs. Not many big fish but still good fun. Goes hard at the golf course
Yea it’s great little creek with much potential! I generally fish further down the system but have to give this stretch some more love
I just bought one... Can't wait to try it...

Looks perfect mate. Drop your Watersnake in there. 👌
Yea looking to do that. Maybe not the 64lb I might have lift off ✈️😂

Man that looks nice as, I am looking for a first kayak for fishing my self, so you were saying the dragon kayak was pretty good too
Yea for an introductory kayak the Dragon Kayaks are great. Super stable and tough on the underside. I have also just recently got a Viking Ozzie an it will be great for the super skinny creeks and pools where this one may be a bit too big
Oh nice
The Vikings are nice
I wish I had the money lying around to get a kayak it would be so good to fish from in tiny creeks and sand flats
I would suggest a lithium battery if you choose to get a sounder/electric motor.They are much lighter as much as 50% but more expensive.
Yea I was thinking of heading that way anyway for the electronics. I have a lead acid battery in the canoe and it weighs me down a bit
What are the advantages of the rudder?
Keeps the kayak on track and prevents it from turning from factors like current and wind. Helps you steer and makes the paddle a lot smoother
How do you find the weight loading this yak yourself?
She’s a bit heavy. Doable, but not for everyone unfortunately
@@dang.fishing Thanks mate
Which size is the paddle?
@@Pearlygates21 2.7-2.8 I believe
