[@LowellFrancisco]

That's a cool kayak! I have a small sit in kayak.

[@GrilledCheese2121]

I'm now mentally creating a chain anchor setup! Also preparing to save for a new PA 360 lol. Also, it's called a carabiner... Just saying

[@paulmoloney5352]

I’m far more interested in drive reliability, I’ve seen several nightmare videos of constant drive failure on new kayaks including failure in 360 system

[@havoc_64]

I am shopping for my first Fishing Kayak, and considering the Hobie you have. What was your thought on Pedal vs Motor?

[@aaanglers]

@@havoc_64 The hobie pedal is the only all terrain option there is. The prop drives have instant reverse by somewhat less control, and you will run aground in shallow sections. The motor has the same issue, but obviously you don't have to do any work lol. My choice is Hobie because of the versatility.

[@karlchandler7246]

That Yak is a freaking mini boat WOOOW!!!!!

[@MrBassTV]

Hobie PA14. Best boat ever!

[@LowellFrancisco]

😀👍

[@jonathanellingwood8275]

Loving your content!! It’s amazing how the old town 136 and pa14 are both top of the line but honestly completely different. Both great but completely different.

[@bull-porky]

Thanks for the kayak run through! This is exactly what I was looking for as a new angler. Time to build a tool kit!

[@fourwinnsdummy]

I'm running an Old Town Autopilot 136. I am going to be rigging lights and a separate battery system so I can have a dedicated battery for the motor and one for everything else.

[@rogerhall5532]

This is my first year useing a kayak and i love it starting mods now im thinking of adding a trolling motor

[@christophertaylor606]

Still bank angling here but the ponds have thawed and two largemouth in the books using neds thanks to Paul. Coppertreuse for the one today.

[@paulglass7268]

Boom!

[@keithreding1828]

The lesson from this video is that every rig is different and needs to be setup for your fishing situation. I have a 2020 Hobie PA12 360 and mostly fish the small streams in Missouri. My wifes uses my Jacison Coosa HD. The streams (rivers) are rarely over 4 ft deep. If they are, it is due to flash flooding and you shouldn't be on the river. Therefore, I don't need a fish finder. I take an extra change of clothes in a dry bag stored in my front hatch, just in case I flip over. I take a small paddle to push off of the bank. I have a small trout net to land the big fish which may be up to 18 inches for the river monsters. I have a storage bin attached to the H-rail for lures and various things like a Walkie Talkie to keep track of others in my party. There is a cup holder for the beverage. I add a cooler behind the seat for additional food and beverages. I take a couple of plano boxes to hold my various lures to put in the compartment in front of the seat. Other than that, I use the basic setup that came stock on my Hobie. Easy peasy. If I fish bigger waters, I take the bass boat.

[@paiger.9750]

I love how there is a sign in the back behind Paul that says "I love gluten".

[@jameseason9949]

How have the yaks held up with the BooneDox? I'm older and couldn't consider the 14 without the Boonedox, and I realize it would still be heavy. I like the stability and the manuverability, though. Thanks

[@aaanglers]

They've held up really well!

[@em-ki-berg]

Have you ever used the pelicans version of the hobbie? They have a fin type structure too. But I can’t afford a hobbie

[@aaanglers]

I have not. I had an Old Town Predator before this kayak and enjoyed it, but upgraded when I realized what the Hobie could do in comparison. Definitely a big investment I didn't take lightly lol.

[@em-ki-berg]

@@aaanglers lol yea it is. They look awesome! Let me know know how well the fins hold up over time in your future video....The lakes I’d probably use it in has some rocky bottoms. They look like they’re not very durable if I were to have them flat and then paddle through the rocks🤷🏻‍♀️

[@aaanglers]

Ive had this for a year now, and a different Hobie a year befor that. I run aground all the time and clip rocks on our rivers. This thing is insanely durable, and I’m not nice to it 😂

[@hawjfamily321]

That yak is awesome. Kinda want one now.

[@Army_Outdoors_88N]

Those are some sweet Yaks dude. I like them. Super cool attachments and add ons!

[@aaanglers]

Thanks!

[@VwwVVampVwwV]

I just bought my first kayak last week. Got a Pelican Ultimate 100NXT sit on top.

[@aaanglers]

NICE! That looks solid!

[@adventureoutdoorkayakers4386]

Hi, great vid. Quick question, My 360 is on ordered and I was looking for tackle boxes I came across Buzbe like the one you have. Can you kindly tell me what size that you ordered in order to fit in the bin? Thanks

[@aaanglers]

Colony 28 fits in the side bin just fine. You can fit 2. Just don't get the DEEP version of that box

[@haciendadad]

Would love to see a video on how you do your lights when that happens!

[@lilhito9498]

Anyone know a good beginner kayak? I’ve been looking to possibly buy one to access the lake and you and Paul have inspired me to turn to yak fishing!

[@aaanglers]

Depends on your price point, but I’d look at old town or bonafide

[@lilhito9498]

@@aaanglers I’ve been looking at an Old Town Vapor because if I remember Paul said he regrets in one of your videos buying such an expensive kayak for his first one

[@aaanglers]

Yeah he has a vapor too and loves it, just a totally different set up

[@andiiramii2775]

Love the setup guys! I pretty much have the same setup as you guys but with the Shearwater

[@aaanglers]

NICE 🙌

[@garmin_fashing]

Can you move the proangler 360 handle to the right instead of the left?

[@aaanglers]

I believe so, but it’s a pretty big modification. Might be a custom order

[@ArbitraryLifestyle]

Do you fish any rivers? Do you fish going upstream in a river? What do you do for an anchor in that situation?

[@aaanglers]

We fish up and down stream rivers, and use a drag anchor system with an anchor wizard

[@TAStormChasing]

Use a Lifetime Yukon Pro Angler. Works great for me. Thanks for videos! Have a good one.

[@MrDoItAll91]

That’s a great boat! I own the Yukon 116

[@TAStormChasing]

@@MrDoItAll91 yeah it is. Believe 116 is the same as pro angler. Itleast, Google search has them coming up the same.. I have the one thats 11' 6".

[@yep.fishing]

Hi Aggressive ones, I just got my first yak yesterday...not a big boy but it will get the job done

[@dixondjallen6620]

I gotta check out that anchor! Too cool!

[@anthonyruffin3619]

I don’t have a Hobie but I do have a feelfree lure 13.5 pedal drive . And let me tell u this was a great video made me subscribe Lol tight lines

[@aaanglers]

🙌 Thanks!

[@bottomlinebassin2001]

Have you had any bearing issues with the 360 Drive™ ??? Killer set-up Burley!

[@aaanglers]

Nothing yet! Works like a dream

[@garrydye2394]

Was wondering the same thing since I have seen a few videos where the drive was going out.

[@richardluzaderjr4415]

Great video and ideas!

[@frankc2159]

How did you mount the anchor wizard to that plate?

[@aaanglers]

Anchor wizard has an adapter and hobie has an h rail plate. Just drill and bolt

@@aaanglers thanks man. Trying to get the wife to sign off in the 360.... Maybe one day! Happy fishing brother. What state are you guys in?

[@aaanglers]

Cool! We’re in Michigan

[@mattmercad0]

Been following the channel for a min. Y’all’s icast stuff is awesome! I’m considering my first kayak and contemplating an old town topwater (105 or 120) or a hobie. Thoughts suggestions advice?

[@aaanglers]

Depends on how much you want to spend! Personally id go 12 ft minimum. Old town is a great all around and Hobie is great if you want to invest

[@mcgahee35]

When I decided to get the hobbie pro angler would you go ahead and get the 14 over the 12 being there pretty close and price….

[@aaanglers]

14 all day. Way better for the investment

[@mcgahee35]

@@aaanglers thanks

[@everestl7935]

Hobies are great but they are way to expensive for me lol. Stay well catch fish 🛶🎣

[@nathandenardis3999]

Just curious where you got your emergency paddle from I’ve been looking for one like that for awhile? Great video as always🎣🎣

[@aaanglers]

It’s an assault paddle by back water assassin

[@nathandenardis3999]

Thanks so much appreciate it!!

[@GOD719]

Surprised you don't have a bimini. I have one on my outback. During mid summer it's good for not burning. And is good for rain. Doesn't like high winds though lol

[@aaanglers]

yeah, I just never had an interest in it. If I could demo a kayak with one, then maybe

[@steveparker7763]

Does the Boonedox landing gear void the Hobie warranty? Thx!

[@aaanglers]

It does unfortunately

[@aaanglers]

They are awesome!

[@paulglass7268]

Wizard is almost an understatement...so legit

[@repairdrive]

So how does one transport this?? Can one person lift it up on a car roof???

[@aaanglers]

you could, but a truck is definitely the way to go. Some even use small trailers, similar to a jet ski trailer

[@patrickbowlin2722]

Be careful with the boondocks landing gear. Mike over at texas fishing force used the boondocks landing gear and his Hobie kayak started cracking around when the landing gear is screwed in

[@aaanglers]

Yeah, they upgraded the hardware since then. I’ve never had an issue

[@patrickbowlin2722]

I really like that storage compartment in the back I've never seen one that zips up like that

[@dixondjallen6620]

My 2018 pro angler 12 was recently stolen! Looking at getting the 14. Was also looking at the BCS brand too. It's hard to beat that hobie drive though. I'm probably getting the hobie pro angler 14. But definitely looking at that 360 first. Local hobie dealer, Merritt Island, let's you test drive any brands and models they have in stock...

[@aaanglers]

Sorry to hear it was stolen! The 360 is definitely the jam!

[@liamgarvey33]

Great, informative video, many thanks. I notice the vast majority of our American brothers are taking their Kayaks out on rivers and lakes. I wonder how the PA 360 handles on coastal waters? In some ways it seems like a heavy Yak that probably handles badly in the wind, especially in a smallish chop, but I see relatively little feedback from seafaring PA14/360. I would say Hobie Kayaks are Indeed very expensive for what they are, but your also getting plenty of innovative tech, 360 Mirage drives, etc. The latest Hobie hull designs are looking more and more alien to what would have been considered a proper sea going "sit on" Kayak hull, a few years back, but maybe I am wrong about that, and they handle very well in ideal to passible sea conditions. Out of the box, they look perfect for rivers and lakes, and maybe that's the whole point! Greetings from Ireland.

[@aaanglers]

I have no sea going experience, but I agree. I don't think this is the ideal vessel for that. I know a lot of guys use the Outback on the salt though. Thanks for watching!

[@sonnyreeves8123]

@@aaanglers We are on the coast, with flats open water in sound. What would be the advantage of the outback over the 12 proangler? SW Florida Gulf Coast

[@SonnyReeves]

We have bought two based on this review and others. Both are 2021 12 360 drive pro anglers, we are so far disappointed with the quality control and some other issues that have come up. We are taking pictures and will file warranty claims. That is not why we bought the "Best" Thank you for the video, not blaming you for something they did or the dealer we used failed to "Inspect what you expect"

[@MrKlimbimm]

Why you put the rods inside? Iam careful, but I think maybe they well be broken;)

[@aaanglers]

That is just for transport, they come out when you fish

[@natesomers5387]

Why dont you use the micro power pole anymore?????

[@aaanglers]

All my lakes are too deep for it and they don't work in rivers... Really only good for fishing flats down south.

[@natesomers5387]

Would you sell me yours I live on the upper Chesapeake and I think it would be a game changer for me

[@aaanglers]

I would, but I sold it last fall, sorry!

[@theinterdimensionalchildmo9586]

I think you just sold me on a hobie

[@aaanglers]

🙌

[@rhodesianhunter9360]

Those are two nice kayaks!! If I only fished lakes that's what I'd roll in. But 100% of the time I'm smallie river fishing. So it's a nucanoe f12 for me...rigged up it's as heavy as I can get by with for a river. The 360 swivel seat and anchor wizard drag anchor are game changers for river fishing. My only gripe is the handles, thier shit...complete shit.

[@lt.pickles6383]

Yeah, I am going to do all that with my bass pro ascend kayak. Or not because it is cheap and not a hobie. #kayaksnobs

I questions everyone that says this. Can you get a boat for 5k, yes. But just like buying a cheap / used car, it comes with a lot of issues. I have no buyers remorse here. Even if it breaks, fixing it is easy and cheaper than a real boat. Maybe one day I'll add a boat to the fleet, but not a $5,000 one.
