Old Town 106 Sportsman Powered By Minn Kota, Full On The Water Review While Fishing In The Kayak

Fishing in the 106 Sportsman Powered By Minn Kota ( bit.ly/oldtown_sportsman_radre... ) and doing a full review on the water. In this video I answer the three of the most common questions people ask about my Old Town electric motor kayak. I also highlight many of the features that make this an excellent fishing vessel while catching a giant stingray and several Sheepshead.

This review includes the following:
-How long the battery lasts
-How fast the kayak is
-Pros and cons of the electric motor kayak compared to the pedal kayak
-Footage of throwing a cast net from the kayak
-A demonstration of how well the 106 Sportsman Powered By Minn Kota turns in forward and reverse
-A segment demonstrating the stability of the kayak
-A demonstration of what it's like fishing in the kayak when using a bait bucket
-Tips for navigating while fishing in the kayak
-A look inside of the front storage compartment
-Landing the kayak
-Getting in the vessel
-Launching from shore
-A look at the rudder controls and how well they work
-Footage of the boat being loaded with a lot of gear

I know Old Town Kayak definately hooked you up with the two sweet yaks but Im sure you have brought them plenty of business. Wise move Old Town Kayak. JC should be getting a sales comission! Love the video man

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for commenting. This is the third kayak within a year I've received from the company. I truly am grateful for the generosity Johnson Outdoors has extended in my direction They sought out me not vice versa. I wholeheartedly believe in going the extra mile and intend to continue doing so in my representation of Old Town kayaks. The crazy thing about me is I've been promoting Penn reels for over two years now with zero commission from their company. I contacted them through email informing them of my promotion of their products and never received a response back, not even a thank you...I do get a very small payout from Amazon if someone purchases a Penn reel through an affiliate link, enough to buy a few shrimp... When I find a good product I will freely share my findings on this channel. Old Town has helped me take my fishing experience and video adventures to a much higher level. I enjoy working with them and have never felt as though I am deserving of anything more than what I have been offered. On the subject of commissions...Old Town sells kayaks through Amazon. I do have Amazon affiliate links connected to Old Town kayaks. So, yes I am able to get a commission that way. Thanks for being a faithful subscriber.

Great video man. Maybe I missed it but where is the battery go? I didn’t see room behind the seat with 2 coolers. Also I was thinking if you need to give feedback to old town on it maybe suggest a left hand control option. Then you have right hand free for the pole. Just my 2 cents.

[@RadReelingFishing]

The battery is under the seat. Watch this video for everything you may have missed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4OVnKuvg7SJa80

[@BobBohner4851]

L love the review and the battery life info. . Sometimes i get out ona lake and the wind kicks up on the lake with 2’ waves. Would you be comfortable navigating it in those waves? Thanks

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching. No I would not. I always look to the weather reports, wind speed, check current radar conditions before I go kayak fishing. I've been kayak fishing for about a year now and due to my looking ahead at the day's weather I've avoided any type of conditions you are describing. With that said, rolling waves are different than white cap choppy waves. These yaks are very low to the water. Slow rolling waves can be handled, high wind white caps would produce a very wet and possibly cold unpleasant experience, at least in my opinion. Years ago I fished on a lake almost every weekend that was seven miles across. I had a 12' long boat with a 9.5 motor on it. That lake would produce the kind of waves you are talking about. I NEVER went fishing in bad conditions and if I saw a storm in the distance that posed danger, I'd head to the house immediately. I'd tell anyone to avoid finding themselves in bad weather conditions in a kayak. Be smart out there and use common sense always. I hope this helps...Thanks for commenting.

[@BobBohner4851]

I always wear rain gear or a dry suit when I paddle. Getting wet is not the problem for me. I am concerned about the stability of the craft to handle waves and not dump me in the water multiple times. Thanks for your response

Any helpful information thanks. appreciated appreciated

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching. This is a super stable kayak, but just know that stability is always relative to the user's ability to balance when standing up. Here are some vids related to your inquiries.

[@FrankCavallaro-kr5wf]

Question: How to you deal with the rudor when bringing in the kayak to shore? I know you have to raise the motor prior to the shore line but doesn't the rudor drag the bottom and if so... how to you rase the rudor to bring the kayak all the way on to the shore?

[@RadReelingFishing]

The rudder pivots up automatically when it hits bottom. There's a lever on the side that raises and lowers the rudder. I time-marked this unboxing video that I made so you can see the lever kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4OVnKuvg7SJa80si=-qG7G_9hOu3F4tZD&t=718

[@lanceoa]

First time seeing the sheepshead! Good eating I’m guessing?

[@garymcnabb7527]

I’ve been a Hobie kayak fisherman for many years but swapped out for a 17’ new motor boat. Guess what? Getting in and out of a motor boat without a dock is a pain. You also need two people to hit the water if there is no dock and up here in Mass the availability of docks and trailer parking is extremely limited. I returned the motor boat. Now I’m looking for an electric motor kayak. Maybe I’ve found it. One question. I fly fish and stability is extremely important. Is this yak stable enough to fly fish from? Thanks

[@RadReelingFishing]

The kayak is very stable, but I really think stability when standing is relative to how well a person can balance themselves too. The kayak is very hard to flip, but when standing and with body movements it has some wobble to it when weight is shifted left to right...

[@jayjohnson9668]

Sounds like someone is really really looking for a sponsorship deal😎

[@RadReelingFishing]

Thanks for watching. I'm still wonder if sponsorship means someone pays you to promote their products or just gives you their products to use. What do you think sponsorship means?

[@jayjohnson9668]

Both

[@AutoKorrect]

Does this Minn Kota have the spotlock feature? If not, is there a way to swap it out for one? This version seems like a better option than the 120 or the 136 because although it's a bit smaller, it's nearly $1500 cheaper which mean i can put that cost towards a Lithium battery, Hummingbird fish finder, bunch of GoPro stuff, gear, rods, etc.

[@RadReelingFishing]

The 106 Sportsman Powered By Minn Kota doesn't have spot lock technology. No, the motors are not interchangeable. The 106 Sportsman Powered By Minn Kota is an excellent fishing vessel. As you saw in the video, it's possible to use the electric motor in current and wind to somewhat lock into a general area to fish. Please don't hesitate to ask more questions. Thanks for watching.

[@RadReelingFishing]

The Topwater 120 PDL seat has bottom and back fabric adjustments for firmness. Yes, I thought the seat was comfortable. I used to fish out of mine for 8 to ten hours in a day and never thought I was uncomfortable due to the seat. Now granted, there isn't any cushy padding on it. Maybe it's not so comfy, but I was just so focused on reeling in fish that I didn't notice, ha ha...

Out of curiosity, how long does it take you to get everything in the kayak and into the water, from your vehicle? Do you drive a car, SUV, truck?

Did you get yours for cheaper?

It takes me about a half hour on average to get everything unloaded and set up to go fishing. I car-top mine on a 2000 Toyota Solara coupe. My kayak is brand new.

[@shark619ify]

Hey got a quick question about the throttle, I guess they are made super sensitive because I can just tap mine and it will speed up slow down etc. Is it supposed to click or anything to let you know its in neutral ? The only way I can tell is by sliding it in the middle and looking at my fish finder at my speed. In your video you are using the butt of the rod to move the throttle around and I thought I heard a click or that could just have been the rod hitting it. On another note the reverse on it works great compared to the mounted motor i used on old 106 Kayak. I drifted up into some grass and didnt want to get hung up in it so I popped it in reverse and it pulled me right out of muck without a problem.

[@RadReelingFishing]

When you put the throttle in neutral you should clearly be able to tell it's in that position. In the video it's very evident that there's a solid neutral position with a slight click sound and a minor locking in place of the handle.

You have to buy the drain plugs And if you read the warranty it suxs Im very unhappy with mine Been trying to sell it for 6 months! This Kayaks SUX Yes it will hold alot! But it will not hold up over time! The foot steering system points up! And when you're in the seat your feet point down! A change of 2 to 3 in a change in angle alone would make a huge improvement! And backing up Yes turning no! I added a gas eng and I can not go faster than 6 knots the Boat fills with water and the faster you go the worse it gets! to a point it will brake your LOCK holding the mount in place! I have approached Old town many times about this flaw. They totally ignore me! At least they send all the parts including a chair which is made in CHINA And now the warranty is up and the Power controller is out for the 3rd time! And its coming out of my pocket!
