    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    Anchor wizard. I got say say the last few months I have lost my drive to kayaks fish. Some of it was the clique type mentality I’ve seen and others was the social media. I think my confidence has gone down so much. When you see all these videos of people fishing but only showing the catches it starts to make me think I’m a horrible fisherman when I go out a bunch and not catch a thing. I even started to fall in the trend of buying stuff based off recommendations of UA-camrs and some days still having no luck. I lost the the drive. But watching your videos now (and I will say I stopped for a while) I’m realizing that we all have our own issues and challenges to deal with. I will say many of your videos have been very helpful especially the tips ones. I know I just need to go back to enjoying kayaking and fishing and do it for fun again. I really appreciate all you do for the community and hope to see more video and maybe meet you one of these days.

It's all mine and I'm not gonna sacrifice any of it by putting a bunch of pressure and conditions on it. Kayak fishing is my place of Zen And I'm not going to let anything or anyone take anything away from that. Just reboot brother

    Anchor Wizard!!
    I bought mine a few months back and still working out a way to install it in place of a rear flush mount pole holder on my yak. Talked with the company multiple time through the order. Yeah there website may be a little sketchy looking and hard to find products but it is legitimate. If you order though them verses a store you will get 2 anchor wizard stickers. Support the company who created them over some big box store. Quick shipping and amazing product. The drag/clutch system that it uses to operate on is genius and simple. The core is made from aluminum helping fight premature death that you see in plastic products and will withstand the vigorous saltwater environment. Amazing product

    @ Chad Hoover total kayak newbie question for you .....why pick a anchor wizard over a traditional anchor trolley set up ? How do they differ ?

    • @ChadHooverFishing
      @ChadHooverFishing  Рік тому

      The Anchor Wizard makes anchoring easy, avoids having to deal with tangled line, touching the line (especially with cold water) and it allows you to make really small adjustments with the pressure clutch that Anchor Wizard uses.

    I installed a anchor trolley on my yak. I've always been very interested in the Anchor Wizard. Have thought about putting 1 on for the front and 1 for the rear. One thing that concerns me though, is what happens if you need to quickly release? Maybe a boat is coming right at you or made a big wake that you would need to release quickly and reposition so you dont get swamped, etc. I've went on line and can't find any articles on how to do an emergency release. Is there a way to do something like that while using the anchor Wizard?

    I do not have a FF.. Once a friend peddled up to me and asked me if I was catching fish. I told him NO. He asked why I would be anchored up casting to an area that probably did not have fish then and instead why not peddle around and find them. Since then I have never used any anchor system in a kayak and think I do rather well still..

    So how well does it work at holding you in place in current in something like a coosa x? I work with a crew that clears downed trees from area waterways. There are times there's a canopy in current that we have to cut through in order to access the safely. Ive often wondered about using an anchor to help hold us close.

    I’m stoked while watching each of your videos after coming across the channel a couple weeks ago. I’m preparing myself for the arrival of my first fishing kayak in a couple weeks. The recovery video after flipping over, paddle information, how-to paddle, your gear suggestions are my current go to’s. The info particularly make a lot of sense and resonates with me since, I TOO and a fairly big fella. So I must thank you for putting the basics to video and pretty much teaching us newbies to be safe on the water. I want to enjoy my time on the water safely and your videos are super helpful. So thank you. 👍🏼🍺

      The anchor wizard helps to quickly deploy and bring up an anchor. It's basically like a reel for the anchor. A trolley is used to move the positioning of the anchor on the kayak (bow to stern). You can use one in conjunction with an anchor trolley if you want.
