QUICKLY Get On & Off The Water Using A Kayak Trailer

[@j.lawsonoutdoors5659]

Nice. Only thing I might not do is hook that front rope to the quick release bar. I know my luck, somehow that would end up pulling it out lol

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Hahaha you are absolutely correct…I’ve done that and unfortunately did not capture it on video…ended up almost chest deep in the water, in February on Kentucky lake, for a moment getting my kayak before it drifted off…surprisingly only my feet were wet up to my ankles from the water…the kayaking suit otherwise kept me dry…I have since added a strap I use for the attachment point (it’s in one of my videos from two months or so ago)

[@jklavarta53]

Great video and I admire your kayak setup. I been using my Vevor dolly cart in the same way to launch tying it to my extender. I am having a hitch fabricated to the bed extender it should make my launch even easier

Where did u get the bungie rope chord?

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Amazon

[@gregmartinez4495]

Nice thank you for sharing,)were did you get your trailer for your kayak?

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

I got it from Music City Outdoors in Nashville, but the brand is Right On

[@TheOutdoorProfessor416]

What trailer is that? I'm actually in the process of selling my bass boat in favor of a kayak - looking at the Nucanoe Unlimited or Old Town Sportsman 120. I launch and retrieve my bass boat exactly the same way! Great video. Thanks

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Awesome!!! The brand is Right-On…I am a bit biased but I highly recommend the Unlimited…higher weight capacity (by 150 lbs I believe) and you can’t beat the stability of NuCanoe…and thank you!

[@TrackerbassSS]

And that’s the reason why I miss having my bass boat because a kayak is such a pain in the ass compared to the bass boat

[@zorminster]

If i had my kayak modified this much, i'd feel exactly the same. I launch my pedal drive from a small trailer as well due to the weight, but have zero of the headaches this fellow seems to be trying to solve. Can I go as far as if i had power? no. can I get shallower without worrying? almost certainly. Do i have to register my boat? also no. When your yak looks like this, I just can't see a reason you don't have a jon boat or full size bass boat unless you're fishing a kayak only tourney circuit.

What is that thing you’re using to hand pedal your rope ?

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Just a cheap extension cord hand reel from Walmart

[@Sunnycal77-sn5vw]

I need the winch stand for the trailer also. Thank you for replying. Most people don't.

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

No problem. I’m not sure about the winch stand. I pulled it off of an old jetski trailer I had been using previously.

[@michaelsanchez3659]

Now how do you do that in the winter when you don't want to get completely soaking wet...

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Exactly the same…I wear NRS Boundry Boots and KastKing Deflektor bibs and coat in the colder months

[@aidanheasley8651]

I've caught some big flatheads like a mile upriver from that ramp

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

That was my first time going up that way and all I kept thinking was this is flathead city!! Good to know, thanks!

[@johnguth5376]

My bass boat requires less time to launch and retrieve!

[@seanmyhre9426]

Lol! Omg! Talk about overcomplicating kayak fishing! Holy crap! That wouldn't even be fun. I wouldn't even go fishing if I had to de all that crap. I get to the lake. Move off to the side. Pull my kayak out of the truck and then go park. Then I push the kayak into the water and go fishing. Simple, easy and fun. A trolling motor on a kayak!! Lol! How lazy are you? That's so funny

[@The_Tennessee_Kayak_Angler]

Hey there! Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I appreciate the comment and support. Tight lines and happy fishing!
