The ULTIMATE Hobie Compass Kayak Rigged for Offshore Fishing 2024 Set Up

[@usstartarsauce]

Awesome and detailed review, amazing work.

Thank you sir!

Plastic rivets with a o ring will work a lot better than self tapping screws for the pad eyes. I have some if you'd like to use them.

[@naskofilms4077]

Thank you, Not sure what will do. Might just stay with the gorilla tape so I don't have to drill holes.

Loved “Had to discipline this thing” 😂😂😂💪💪 Awesome review mate and fantastic setup. Super helpful to get some tips on how to set my compass up and love what you have done 👏 Hey where did you get the shorter steel mirage drive pull cables from?

[@naskofilms4077]

Thank you for watching! Good luck with your set up. I have the 6 inch cables, got them from this site lacustomkayaks.com/products/180-mirage-drive-pull-cables?variant=37782350299295

@@naskofilms4077 Oh yeah the Berleyro handle and handles on the back are a definite on the list to do. So annoying when ya go to lift the yak from behind to put on the wheels and it tips sideways.

[@joet2171]

Hey Nasko! I was wondering how the adjustments were to the handle with the longer version of the screw and if so, what size screw did you use? Thank you!

[@naskofilms4077]

Its perfect now, hasn't gotten loose been out 4-5 times. Don't know the exact size I just went to the hardware with the screw and found one that's 2mm longer. You cant really fit a much longer as the brass insert is shallow. But the 2mm extra length must of did the trick for the blue Loctite to do its job.

Evala Nasko! Need your recommendation... I've been fishing from an inflatable Sea Eagle skiff, but after a recent encounter with a bull shark in the FL Keys decided to switch to a rigid kayak. Would you recommend an Outback or Compass if I am not going to do any mods? What do you miss the most since your switch? Is the Compass significantly faster than the Outback? How does it handle offshore swell? Thank you again for the awesome review!

[@naskofilms4077]

Merci! I sold my outback and never missed anything about it. The compass is easy to transport and rooftop on car, move around with the cart and drag on the beach sand. On the water it feels peppy and nimble, its a bit faster and gets up to speed faster and turns better. Its just as stable as the outback and handles big swells just as good. Also compass is better for surf launches. That being said if you are not gonna do any mods I suggest you get the outback. The compass stock is just not good enough for fishing. Thank you for watching!

@@naskofilms4077 Thank you Sir! I appreciate the feedback. Going to go with the Outback

Hey what brand shears are you using? And where did you get them from? I like how they have a tether point on them. Thanks 😊
