I think you brought up a point that I never really considered. Being tired from padding and fighting for boat positions. Being tired or drained will effect your fishing and decision making. Never really thought about it till you said it .

If you hook up on a fish and for some reason you need to change the position of the boat, using the rudder to alter your direction would be much easier than using the remote to do it all. If you can use your feet for direction instead of hand for power AND direction then you'll have more time with both hands on the rod(obviously 2 hands on the rod increases your likelihood of catching the fish).

Hey Alex great video!! I was wondering if you had any idea what the top speed (in ideal conditions) is on your new old town? I’m looking at getting a new kayak with either a bow mounted trolling motor with spot lock or now possibly the old town...

@campbell88694 жыл бұрын
That’s pretty good... I have a ss107 with Torqeedo 403 on it and I can get 4.7 mph on it... I’m looking into getting a longer kayak too for myself and then I would have a high quality “buddy boat” as well... currently torn between a pedal drive or one with a trolling motor with the “spot lock” function... I think the spot lock in a kayak is a true “game changer” for kayak tournaments so I’m leaning that way!! Thanks for the response it’s appreciated keep the great content coming!!
