How To Pick The Right Kayak For Waterfowl Hunting

[@OutdoorLimits]

Another tip.. You get what you pay for! Don't cheap out!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Absolutely, way too many ways for stuff to go wrong if your kayak fails on you

[@joegodina1738]

A stadium seat works also on the sit on top kayak, Can’t wait for this season!!!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Never thought of that but I'll have to check it out for my Angler 144

[@joegodina1738]

@@HokeOutdoors just watched your response video with Josh, all of y’all keep up the great work!!👍🏽

[@Endless_Outdoors]

I’m so ready for this winter!!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Starting to feel like fall up here!

[@Endless_Outdoors]

@@HokeOutdoors dang dude! Down here in Ky it feels like it’s over 100 degrees like everyday!!

[@tokeyboswell2286]

Good vid. Love my sit-in for hunting, it fits a ton of stuff and I like sitting low. Upgraded the backrest with more padding and a higher back, made a big difference. Wish I could lay out in it a little better, but I have it rigged pretty well for cover with sisal ropes that look good and hold extra veg.

[@tokeyboswell2286]

In your river footage, surprised you didn't have that gun in a floating case. I have dropped my gun overboard on a kayak hunt, and it was a very bad deal.

[@HokeOutdoors]

What size of kayak do you have? Sounds like a very solid setup. I typically do case my gun when on the water but in that case I was jump shooting so I had to have it out

[@robertwinner986]

You know the season is getting close when we start getting multiple videos a week!

[@HokeOutdoors]

That’s right! Just a few more weeks till it all kicks off

[@tazoutdoorsman]

Love the duck tape shoes lol

[@HokeOutdoors]

Haha thanks, not a big fan of buying new shoes so I just make due

[@MichaelPark-s7k]

I realize that this is an older video, but are you still intending to post the follow up video?

[@edsmercina7157]

Thanks for the info

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks for watching!

[@ventureofalifetime8282]

I have a Old Town Predator 13. I have a 400lb weight capacity. The seat is very comfortable and adding camo and concealment to it is a breeze. Ill be trying it out next season

[@nyoutdoors1101]

I just use my red white and blue kayak that I got before I started waterfowl hunting. Just your standard old conventional kayak from dicks and I put camo burlap over it. You don’t need anything too crazy 👍

[@HokeOutdoors]

That’s right, a dependable kayak and a little burlap or netting is how I started too. As long as you have confidence in your gear that’s what really matters

[@pineywoodsriders2184]

Use a sponge to get the water out of your old town.

[@shilohwallaby617]

My favorite thing about videos like this is there’s 60 white dudes dressed slightly differently, saying the same thing slightly differently

[@BeetleBuns]

LMAO it's so true, and only like 2 of them don't have giant bushy beards

[@the45er]

When you call a canoe a kayak you lose me!

[@DuckGunChronicles]

You da man Yung Thomas!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Too bad my kayak videos can't compare 🥲

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@HokeOutdoors Just add some more yo yo yo’s at the beginning and you’ll make it someday

[@keatontimmonsyt]

Yeeeesss! In a couple months I can get a job and after a car I plan to get a kayak next waterfowl season

[@Endless_Outdoors]

Noice

[@HokeOutdoors]

Love to hear it Keaton! That’s right when I got into it and haven’t looked back

[@patrickkinney4998]

Mmm I’m looking for something that keeps me a little farther away from the snakes and gators. Although with the right paddle, I’m sure I could do about Mach 2 when the moccasins try crawling on.

[@pepepepert]

I went from a sit inside old town to a Pelican catch 120. I can fit 4 dozen in the front and my half dozen goose decks in the "trunk". It has the stadium style seat and only weighs 50ish lbs.

[@HokeOutdoors]

That sounds like an awesome rig! I might need to get a new kayak for my dad soon so I'll have to look into those

[@pepepepert]

@@HokeOutdoors They are also relatively cheap.

[@chucksmith5002]

I have the Jackson Big Rig I believe length is 13.3 Width is 38 in. Weight 92 lb. Weight Cap. 450 or 500 lbs. It`s not a paddle drive I have hunted ducks out of it and it hunts pretty stable . Your not going to win any races but I didn`t buy it for that reason . I wanted something stable for hunting and Fishing it has a Stand up Bar and I`m 300lbs. myself . Enjoyed it Thomas

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks Chuck! I've heard good things about those Jackson kayaks in the past, glad to hear it's doing the job for you

[@jamesbrightsman6548]

I like canoes and they kayaks for the simple fact you can sneak right into your spot and come shooting light all your birds are still there vs a gas boat where your going to kick up all the birds

[@HokeOutdoors]

Absolutely agree with you on that one!

[@greatestoutdoorsman]

awesome video. what type of lay out blind do you have on the discovery?

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks brother! I’m using a Cabelas Northern Flight kayak blind on it

[@ELiTEgamer4434]

Great video, quite informative

[@HokeOutdoors]

I appreciate it brother!

[@hondo9558]

Good video

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@moustafakaid3904]

Good video, I wonder if you can cover the kayak blind topic as well

[@moustafakaid3904]

R u coming to Texas this year?

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks Moustafa! What would you like to know about kayak blinds? I won’t be working out in Texas this winter but I might make a trip out that way

[@moustafakaid3904]

I have red head kayak blind however a lot of people are asking about alternatives because it is unavailable since last year. Let me know when is your trip and if you are interested in crane hunting I might have good spots. Also I will be heading to Nebraska probably on season opener ..

[@HokeOutdoors]

@@moustafakaid3904 I think the yak gear 2.p blind that’s coming out this year will be another good option but those are the only two dedicated kayak blinds on the market that I know of. I will definitely let you know if/when I make it out there. Hope Nebraska treats you well!
