i am a noobie to bass fishing and baitcasters. dc reels are the main reason ive been able to enjoy fishing with a baitcaster. they have def helped me learn, and they are so much easier to use than a traditional.

@capitolbassfishing7 күн бұрын
its a very personal trait the way one casts. You may throw hard, I may throw soft, sometimes side arm, sometimes over head. All variations may require micro adjustments. The new DC reels from shimano are getting close to what you say. They come at a price.

Sounds to me that after you pay for the Kayak, shipping , and then the Taxes and any other Fees you could buy one here the US.
@capitolbassfishing7 күн бұрын
Yes on a one Kayak purchase I agree buy US but likely the one you will buy at a similar price will be...you guessed it - Made in China. I buy 3-4 at a time and sell the ones I dont want and the shipping/tax etc scales. So by the time I am done I paid nothing for two of my kayaks...just my time and energy to import them. Its not for everyone. If you have the money, buy US, US Made and get a good one!

Thanks Joe, very informative. I was just about to place an order with Vicking ( tandem modular kayak that comes in 3 modules ) however they suggested if I were to ship via door to door service I should pay for them to be boxed (wooden). But if I send to local port there is no need to box. From your experience do you need boxing if you are just buying one kayak? And are vicking kayak of similar quality to hobie?

Mine were on the floor in bubble wrap and paper. All fine. They are robust (plastic) so I dont think wood is needed for a port delivery. They will be ok.

Sometimes simple is best. This is one of the cheaper and easier mods I've seen. I've seen some dolly mods that still cause the back of the boat to crash into the pavement when unloading. This mod is easy to store inside the truck with the boat. It doesn't take up room. Great job.

Just found your channel via fishing... I've been wet shaving for almost 15 years now. It is the BEST way to shave. One piece of advice I'd suggest is to not buy every single soap, oil, aftershave, balm, etc at first. A little goes a long way, and eventually they'll get stale or turn rancid. I had to throw out a couple of really nice natural/organic balms back when I started because I couldn't use them up in time.

Hi Joe, I am buying a Kayak from China. They tell me it will ship straight to my house. The shipping cost is around 1000 dollars. Is this accurate? Where do I not have to deal with anything US shipping ports or customs?
@capitolbassfishingАй бұрын
You can get it shipped direct to your door, yes. My thoughts were... if the kayak is say $450 and shipping is $1000 then thats about $1500. If thats the case then why not just buy local...there are 3-5 suppliers that sell them for this much. In my case I bought 4 kayaks, Shipped for the same $1000 (for all 4) so each kayak shipping averaged out to about $250 making their individual cost about $700. Then I sold three for $1250 so My kayak costs were $3000 shipped and after selling three for 1250 each I had $700 bucks and a free kayak.
