Jackson Kayak Knarr Fully rigged.

[@dixee6498]

Nice setup.

[@jklavarta53]

Very impressive setup you have a lot of gear yet organized!

[@ETuss713]

What I love is you openly and proudly admit to being a gear hog and lover. I inshore kayak fish a couple times weekly. Bass fish 1 times monthly. There is no way Id ever put this much on a kayak, but love the fact you recognize the amount of gear and make no questions you enjoy it all

[@silentjoutdoors]

Thats a serious setup man! What a machine

[@jeanwilson8211]

Super rigging and walkthrough, Matt!! Really like your creative bungee/ball rod securing idea!

[@johncarlisle4081]

I’ve got a 2019 big rig HDFD, Kaku Zulu, and a 2021 coosa HDFD. Selling the big rig and coosa and getting a knarr to rig out! Love several of your ideas and will be using them when I rig up the knarr! Thanks for the videos!

[@cillajohnsonfishing2967]

Fantastic walkthrough.

[@phonebooth7007]

Started following you just because your hat, plus I like fishing

[@TheMeticulousRepairTech]

Great walkthrough!!

[@gavinrainey5106]

Kinda looked like a crack on the bottom of your hull by your transducer ! About 6:10 into the video

[@jbsanger696]

Great set up! I want one!!

[@robertphillips1546]

Great video got one question approximately how much do you have invested in that total setup

[@sonofafisherman743]

Great job don’t get much better than that 🤩👍

[@thetinkerverse]

While there is lots of great rigging here and some cool ideas, I can't help wonder just how you'd re-enter in deep water if you ever needed to. There is so much gear on all sides that there is no easy entry from in the water.

[@KenWoodFishing]

Hey, Matt. What size T-Bolts did you use for the 90º mounts on those foot controls? And what 90º mount? YakAttack has a few variations. Finally getting ready to rig the Knarr and I really like this setup you have here. Thanks, man! =)

[@OldLineKayakFishing]

Awesome video, I'm really eyeing up moving to the knarr in 2023. Can you tell me about the housing covers on your go pros? Thanks!

[@mnbassintv2849]

Are the rods secure on the internal rods storage driving down the road?

[@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors]

Sir, I know you are busy, and probably dont have time to answer and I get it with as many subs as you have you can't answer them all, However I want to ask anyway. I have been looking at this kayak and another brand. I currently own a Jackson 14 Cuda, it is a 2011 model and I love it, however, I am looking for something a little more fishing friendly and peddle drive. I would also like to take my pup with me from time to time. If you by chance have owned a Cuda, I know it's older, how is this in comparison to the stability of it? I am originally from Oklahoma and now live in East Texas, so Caddo Lake and lake of the pines are both about 30 minutes from me, both lakes have challenges from lots of timber just under the water and the other lake is full of Sylvania and another aggressive aquatic plant Lilly pads. Im curious how it handles on the lakes and how hard it is to paddle if a guys need to paddle to get out of some of the trees or salvania, I dont plan to paddle all the time, however, I know it will probably need to happen from time to time. Thanks in advance sir and keep up the fun videos, this one was very informative. I did a couple of fishing tournaments back in Oklahom in 2011, 2012, I can see myself trying to do it again next year, hence the reasons I am looking at another kayak. Thanks again. dale

Hey Matt what’s your honest opinion on this boat I am liking the look and design of the boat very similar to the PA which I’m in now

[@jrosel1985]

What livescope mount is that? I have the summit one but like that all metal setup!

[@flyslinger2]

The mini-gear track on the pedal drive-is that an add-on or part of the unit?

[@muttsarebetter]

Enjoyed video. Total cost all accessories? Can you provide all web sites? I own the knerr. Starting to accessories. What would suggest me to start? Thank you

[@WaltFreedom]

Does the seat articulate backwards if the buckles on the strap break?

[@rickyjuelg414]

Awesome rig! How does the Knarr handle the weight of your tournament gear on the water with the lower weight capacity compared to the Big Rig HD FD? Would love to see some footage of you on the water with that rig, thanks for the great content!

[@jamesnguyen5248]

Good question. I sold my Hobie and was going to buy the Knarr. But now I have to wait to know more about this before buying it. Per the numbers on websites, the capacity of the Knarr is the same as the Hobie Outback = 425 lbs.

[@rickyjuelg414]

@@jamesnguyen5248 The Coosa FD has a higher weight capacity than the Knarr, at 450 lb, and of the JK fishing lineup with the Flex Drive, the Coosa is the leader in capacity? When they cut the width from 40" to 37", they cut the weight capacity from what the Big Rig was at 550lbs to 425lbs. Not sure if that was a great trade-off for a little more maneuverability, fixing the rudder would have been enough, IMHO.

[@PompdUpFishin]

How hard are the pedals to swap out? Will any bike pedals work?

[@ryanprellwitz8565]

Any 9/16" bike pedals should work.

[@doctorkayak]

Gear hog is an understatement! LOL. Manufacturers, in my opinion, need to work on swivel seats. All of the storage behind the seat is grossly unusable. As stable as these yacks are I am getting up in years and I have a couple of minor physical limitations and balance issues. It sure would be nice to have better access to my onboard gear.

[@mmancino1982]

The Blue Sky Angler 360 has a pedestal swiveling seat and is ridiculously stable. Definitely a trolling motor needed kinda boat though

[@TruckinRoundTv]

NuCanoe Unlimited has a swivel seat

[@claydankewich9582]

Hope that’s not damaged underside

[@mmancino1982]

6+ mph. Really wish my Auto Pilot got that kind of speed. Fully loaded in barely hitting 4

[@gavinrainey5106]

HEY MATT, check your hull by your transducer cover. Really looks like a crack buddy

[@PompdUpFishin]

I noticed that too.

[@glennchristie2316]

Great kayak - BUT - If I’m going to spend over 4 grand for a fishing vessel - I’ll get a 16’ boat and have a lot more room to move around. I own a 12’ Eddyline Caribbean so I know what I’m talking about.
