My thoughts on the 2006 Hobie Sport. Is buying an older model Hobie to fish worth it?

So I upgraded my kayak setup, as you guys know, my last setup was ALL OUT. I had so much on that kayak and while it was cool to take out, having so many things to bring was exhausting and the kayak didn't have much space.
So now (after having sold my last kayak and most of the gear I had on it) I am going for "simple is better". I have a smaller kayak that is easier to carry and transport. The Hobie Sport comes in at 9.7ft while my Ocean Scrambler XT was 12 ft long. Although it is a smaller kayak in terms of length, the Hobie Sport is significantly wider providing me more working room and room for various mounts. Hope you guys enjoy this video! More kayak fishing content coming out soon!

Love the vid man! What roof rack are you using for the prius?

[@HideshiIzu]

I was using the Thule Hullivator but I've made some HUGE upgrades to my kayak setup since this video and I needed cash so I sold it for $450 and bought Malone Seawing racks along with a suction mounted kayak roller!

Hey Hideshi. I sent you a message on the Dawson Hall video on spearfishing the American River. Not sure if you get a copy of my reply to your reply. But, if not, maybe take a look and message me next time you head to the coast for shore diving. Take care!

[@HideshiIzu]

Hmmm, I didn't see this message, maybe hit me up on Instagram?

[@danthecraftman]

wish you showed better views of the kayak and setup itself lol. I'm closing in on getting one of these for $700 but the seat it comes with is original and totally dogshit. You must have upgraded that seat yourself? or did the previous owner

Great steal on the yak, you taking it out to the ocean?

[@HideshiIzu]

Yeah I actually just took it out to go trolling for Halibut!

@@HideshiIzu catch anything?

[@HideshiIzu]

@@riverfishy No I did not, I should be posting the video soon. I've upgraded my kayak setup again to be a bit more efficient in targeting freshwater fish and more efficient energy wise.
