Lets Try This Again | Round 2 with the Old Town Sportsman Autopilot

[@evansobx]

Motor isn’t to loud, glad you got it fixed. Also I’ve heard good things about Old Town, and am interested in the Ipilot model..looking forward to more videos

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Kayak Catfish, My autopilot does that when the battery gets low. Stay safe from Pennsylvania. God bless

[@melvinmariott8609]

That's the first time I heard about that problem with the GPS on the motor. That is some good advice right there.

[@gaylonjohnson904]

Justin my guy.....I’m always happy when I get the notification of a new video. I got a lot of my family watching you down here in FL

[@jasondeansmith79]

Love that thumb still guiding that line on the old reel. That new habit that you’ll do the rest of your life now. Lol

[@dioad1739]

Justin glad to see you in the new yak no more anchor lines to get tangled in I’ve been with you two years thanks for all the fishing trips you took me on, tight lines brother.

[@steveg7724]

Good to see they took care of your trolling motor for you and seeing you in the new yak. Good fish. Tight lines.

[@vincemack3124]

I got the top water 120 old town after watching your videos for months so keep doing what your doing man it’s awesome to watch

[@johnlucas1466]

Congrats brother this new kayak is the game changer no more pesky lines in the water four anchors it has to save you time and give you more time.

[@tomw3380]

Glad to see the new kayak back on the water again and getting broken in right. Lookin good. Tight lines

[@stephenhair5501]

Glad things are working out on that new Old Town Kayak. Gotta love that Spot Lock feature!! Catch a Giant.

[@theangryamerican3506]

Glad to see it working out for you man. Better dinks than no fish at all. Gonna try again this Saturday night. Keep up the good work!!!

[@cherieyoungblood806]

Nice video and it's good to hear that they got you back on the water in a timely manner considering the things that are going on in the world right now. Don't worry about the motor it was not bothering me. I kind of like hearing it since their wasn't any background noise.

[@firewoodhawk3917]

Glad to see you back on the water, always love it when i see ya put out a new video, happy for you on the new kayake, good for you to be able to fish threw the week instead of 1 day on weekends, keep up the good show Justin!

[@TimCrutcher1]

Nice rig and good to see the Anchor making adjustments during a big take down. I can see where your drags are going to be more important when a big stripper tries to take you down stream in heavy current and the anchor takes off up stream. Should make for an exciting video.

[@youreverydayangler4392]

Finally got on a nice fish. Hard work pays off

I have to say, I tune in because I love watching those initial take-downs/strikes 👍🏻

I went fishing this weekend and the boaters are about the rudest people there is. They acted like I wasn't even there fishing in a kayak

[@ikestarr9420]

Happens to me all the time while I’m on the river, a damn airboat flies by me like I’m not floating the river.

I can hear your motor kicking in and out keeping you in place. I think that ksyak is the greatest thing

[@goyaklarh]

Looking forward to how this Kayak holds up ! Keep them coming Justin .

[@andrewmoe1192]

Gald they got you all sorted out without much delay. Great service is super important in such an expensive and advanced kayak. Iook forward to getting a oldtown kayak when i upgrade. I have only been at it 1 year so far tho. So ill put 1 more in on the yak i have 1st i think. (Not to mention giving time for the rona to kick rocks)

[@brockabeekb1894]

That's awesome! Glad it hasn't tried to shipwreck you again. Great attitude

[@bobbynewton9247]

That's the way to break it in glad you like your new kayak looks nice keep on catching them God Bless

[@tonyjessen8204]

Glad to see you out in the new kayak it looks great I thought you had a new life jacket with it I see that you are in your old one thanks for the great video I watch them all from end to end stay safe🐋👍👍

Doesn't sound like the motor and hook ups are together well, they need to keep out all the junk and straight wire it. I did hear their customer service is unbeatable. Oh, you got an admirer...

[@scottdavis7485]

You seemed to have stopped measuring the fish before you release them. I miss seeing that. Would encourage you to bring that practice back (even a 'dink' every now and then, since that's what most of us catch most of the time).

[@KayakCatfish]

I only did that for the catfish tournaments I was in. I am no longer affiliated with that organization so I have no reason to carry the board now.

[@danrash8535]

Can you tell me about the motor and steering gear

[@joehayek8933]

I liked the storage under your seat on the other kayak. Do you like the storage on this one?

[@KayakCatfish]

There isn’t as much storage in this kayak. My anchor took up most of the space under my seat in the old kayak. With this one, I don’t have to carry an anchor anymore so it works out the same.

[@billymitchem5256]

Looks like the seat is much more comfortable is that right

[@KayakCatfish]

It’s comfortable but not as adjustable as the Hobie seat

[@chrisreumont]

Glad to see you got your kayak running again . Another good video Justin. Do you bring a paddle with you when you go out just in case?

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes, I always bring a paddle just in case.

[@stanleyhoyle6462]

Can you make a video how are you fixed Your rod holders

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes. I will make a video covering my setup soon.

[@bobhuber6628]

Great fish to get the kayak started! Definitely put out that set up vid! Very much looking forward to it. How was the kayak stability when you brought the bigger blue aboard? Looked like you were standing.

[@KayakCatfish]

No issues with stability. It is extremely stable.

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

You may want to watch this vid because you can see the your moving at least fifteen feet side to side which can make all the difference. Plus you have the racket if the motor starting and stopping and the fish absolutely will shy away from it. Just saying. I've got auto pilot on my trolling motor and it's basically good for trolling a preset path or to follow a break line using depth.

[@KayakCatfish]

Sounds like you need to adjust your settings. I spent 5 hours with it yesterday and the gps held unbelievably tight. As for the noise, I have used my Torqeedo motor on my other kayak for two years. It is much louder than the minn Kota and I haven’t noticed an issue with catching less fish.

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

@@KayakCatfish watch your own video champ.

[@KayakCatfish]

I have watched my graph the last two days. Far more accurate than you watching trees that are a couple hundred yards away as my kayak swings around lol.

[@tobyanderson3640]

This is a proven motor system have it on my boat for many years it help you catch a lot more fish than it will scare away. It will hold you in 3 ft spot on very windy days, system actually works more effectively when the wind is blowing.

I’d say those rod holders passed the test!

I'm just getting into fishing out of a boat/kayak for big catfish. How and where can I catch skip jack? Any info is greatly appreciated!

Casting jigs and spoons below the dams in the spring and fall is when most people get them. You can catch them on the main lake year round if you put the time in to find them.

Good video Justin. I can hear the beeps and the motor back and forth adjusting but it'll be ok lol. I saw you stand up and lift that fish is this kayak more stable than you other one. How much does it weigh loaded Thanks for sharing

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes, this kayak is a little more stable than the Hobie although they are both extremely stable. This kayak is probably over 150lbs with all my gear in it.
