  • In this episode, I fish Galveston, Texas looking for redfish, flounder and speckled trout. My buddy's Hobie Outback failed on him during this drip. We had to cut this trip because it was too dangerous to continue on with the Hobie Outback.

    Early on I put 5" wide GatorGuards KeelShield down length of my Hobie Outback and a thick ABS plastic TactiKeel bow keel bumper to protect it. He may have a crack in scupper holes. Hear that happens if you use the Hobie cart that uses the scuppers. Agree w Nick the plastic not as thick as Oldtown.

    If you use the scupper beach wheels check the scupper holes for cracks, pretty common leak area.

    It's amazing how similar it looks there to the Chesapeake Bay marshes I fish in. I go to a spot near Langley AFB that's a lot like where you are, but there are fighters taking off all the time. But the grass and the low trees are the same basically.

    Nick, good to see you in your Oldtown. A 12ft boat, feels safe in rougher water. The pdl drive and the Bixpy, NK, or Torqueedo is the perfect combo, going out 2 to 5 miles out. Youll always get there and back, on a craft you can trust. Oldtown designs there boats for 2 to 3 yrs, before releasing them. 500lb weight capacity, us amazing. And i believe a lifetime Hull warranty. 5 yrs on the, floating pdl drive. 😎 🛶 🎣

    I put seat risers on my Outback which added about 2” to the height.
    Maybe it’s the GoPro wide angle lens but those casts seem pretty far for being so precise. 👍

      @@OffdayTherapy OK.. I was down at the Galveston Park the other day and a couple where putting in their kayaks and they were so proud of their Anchor sticks that they bought while down here and was telling me how nice to have those sticks in the marsh... as he was showing me his anchor stick he was placing it into the scupper hole ... which sounds like a good idea but actually that part of the kayak is the weakest point and a harder place to repair... I was wondering if one of them might have created a leak of their own kayaks.. best of luck...

      Dude, sorry for the leak, BUT, I am glad you figured out where it was coming from. Now, how are you going to deal with it? I have a 2021 Outback & I AM curious!
      I use the C-Tug cart system due to fear of scupper failure. I modified mine with padded PVC pipes for the channels. C-Tug now has a winged version that is made for channeled yaks like the Hobies.
      Good Luck my friend! @@OffdayTherapy

      @@nealhagood6792 you can unscrew the black sleeve in the scupper, so I did that and plastic welded. Then I used some sealant where scupper touches scupper insert. Then I used some marine epoxy over it and also inside around the scupper used marine epoxy. 3 trips so far no issues
