Old Town BigWater 132 vs Hobie Pro Angler Fishing Kayaks

[@tylerramsey3607]

How does the big water compare to the pa in stability? Been trying to decide between the old town big water pdl and the sportsman 120 pdl. I mostly fish lakes big and small. I’m currently in an outback but hate how low it sits. So a comparison between the outback and big water would make more sense to me if you have any experience in one?

Bigwater is equal to PA in stability. The Bigwater actually feels more stable for me while standing because of the hull shape, it doesnt rock back and forth. The PA is of course very stable and almost impossible to tip over, but it likes to rock easier and can feel like your going to fall more. Unless you have storage or travel reasons id always go with bigwater 132 over 120. More stable, tracks better, and faster.

And the PA is not water tight like the BW 132

Which one is more stable for a big guy? Off topic, but what did you think of the 17t? I have kids, so it is interesting

[@DanielMerrittFishing]

17T is awesome, fished out of one a bunch and its a ton of fun for smaller bodies of water. They’re hard to find and i’d recommend a trailer so you can back it in(heavy). I’d say the pro angler is harder to tip over but the bigwater feels more stable because of the hull design.

Thank you for your review.

Good review,...man I want one of those hats...where can I order one? !!!

[@DanielMerrittFishing]

West Texas Kayak Fishing facebook site is your best chance. Usually one order a year for hats and they sell out quick.

Whats funny is how hard it is to find actual comparison thats not injected full of opinion and bias. An objective comparison is very scarce. This is not one. Ask a Hobie fisherman, they say the opposite.
