I don’t know how much I’m gonna be using that option kicking back or taking a nap or something lol

😂🤣😂

[@YaknTackle]

Working on customizing my Recon 120...

[@jigginwithjake2796]

I’ve finally got almost everything I want on mine.

[@jerkbait6878]

Where do I get jiggin with jake gear??

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Catfish Life I’ll have my online store opened up on 10/7. There will be an announcement on the Facebook and Instagram pages. Thanks for your support!

[@robbiejohnson3698]

My first kayak was 135 ride love it you will how fast the kayak will move I like that color good fishing

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Oh yeah. I’ve had it out several times. Love it!

[@Kayak7seas]

Welcome to the kayak club, you have yourself a nice yak. Looking forward to following your kayak adventures...

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Thank you! Definitely looking forward to the adventure!

[@larrydog171]

I have the same kayak! You'll love it as soon as you get used to the weight of loading it up

[@jigginwithjake2796]

I have had it out a few times this past fall. I didn't think it was terrible to load and unload. But, I was using a cart as well.

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

I love my wilderness radar!! I went with the wilderness crate for storing drinks lures etc and it's a must have!!!

[@jigginwithjake2796]

That crate is crazy expensive! So is the pedal drive.

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

@@jigginwithjake2796 yes very true I got my kayak already with pedal drive! Crate was nearly $300 Australian! Kayak was $3500 before the mods and sounder! Expensive but I must say it's a great product that I'm using atleast 4 times a week and regularly catching fish!!!

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Mine was 1,400 US. Without the pedal drive. Another 1,200 to add it. I agree it’s a great product. Just wish that pedal drive was about half the price.

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

@@jigginwithjake2796 yeah it's an expensive piece!!!but in all honesty it's a great investment to have I love the freedom of pedals especially when the current and winds pickup a bit

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Oh I’ll eventually have one. Just gotta save up the scratch to make it happen, captain! Cause I agree! If you’ve watch the few kayak videos I’ve posted. Paddling is a pain!

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

These are super stable kayaks I do alot of lure casting from standing up and very little movement!!

[@jigginwithjake2796]

I do agree! It’s crazy stable! As a rookie kayaker, I feel 100% safe on this one! I’d love to add the pedal drive. But, like I said in the previous comment, they’re pricey! Kayak and pedal drive combined and I could’ve bought a Hobie.....

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

@@jigginwithjake2796 in my opinion the hobies are over priced and over rated imo! Yes they are good but basically a boat nearly 7k for kayak then add trailer and accessories its rediculous

[@jigginwithjake2796]

You ain’t kidding. Anything fishing related can get a little pricey. But, when you love it and you use it, it’s worth it,

[@chadsfishingadventures8600]

@@jigginwithjake2796 absolutely!!!!!!!

[@fishingwiththearmydogg1849]

So Stoked you got a kayak, looking forward to seeing some video. Wilderness makes an awesome product.

[@jigginwithjake2796]

You and me both, buddy! Had her out today and “played” a bit. This is gonna be fun! Couldn’t be happier with the Wilderness kayak! Fortunately, my wife encouraged it over an alternative option.

[@fishingwiththearmydogg1849]

@@jigginwithjake2796 well as you know I have used fishing as therapy for my PTSD, the kayak gave me more options to be on the water. If you get the pedal drive you find you have your hands free to tie hooks, take pictures and video, it just makes it a lot easier to get around. Enjoy it!!

[@jigginwithjake2796]

I definitely found that out today. Paddling back all I could say was... I need the peddle drive!

[@fishingwiththearmydogg1849]

@@jigginwithjake2796 tie down everything, I have lost a few items, including a $660 rod and reel. There are lots of DIY stuff for kayaks.

[@kastawayfishing8484]

Please tell me you gave a video of the pool test? Now I want to get one. I was debating because I didn’t want to be by myself

[@stevenbyerline]

Looks cool jake still worries me tho.

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Took it out today. Floats like a boss!

[@shatersphere11]

Well shoot. Thats like a teaser video for the first video of you catching some fish on it. I am curious as to what the plan is for fish retention. Get a basket and hang it off the side?

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Basket off the side is an option. I’m a,so considering using a pool noodle and a collapsible mesh laundry basket.

[@anglingwitharlieandfamily2036]

Congratulations on the new kyack, there definitely a sneaky way of getting on top of a school of fish

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Thanks, Arlie!

[@xxOTAKTAY84xx]

Good vid brother ..... Very nice Yak bro i been wanting to get one myself ... Looking forward to seeing some content shot from the seat of that SomBitch lol

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Ben Pagel it’s gonna be a ton of fun!

[@kendaniels2652]

You have a good PFD? Nice Kayak. 👍

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Ken Daniels I got the NRS Chinook. Very comfortable!

[@segsybennett]

Where did you buy it off?

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Got that at Scheels

[@tragikk03]

I have a radar 115 as well and I love it. The seat is one of the best in the game (for comfort), even after all these years I've had it out on the Potomac at Aquia Creek in 15mph wind with gust up to 30/35 (I got caught out there.. over a mile from the launch) I pedaled for 2 hours straight into a headwind and 3ft swells and not even once did I think I was going to end up in the water. I've taken it in the roughest conditions VA winter has to offer, including snow storms, and she has always kept me upright and fishing! Not sure if you have a fish finder by now but if you're going to mount a fish finder with side imaging on the flex pod, I recommend getting a 7" or larger screen. I went with a 5" hook2-5 TS and I regret not waiting until I could afford a much larger screen Have you been out on it yet??

[@jigginwithjake2796]

What’s up, Nick. Thanks for watching! I have been out several times this past fall. Looking forward to getting way more time in it this spring. I do have a fish finder but it’s pretty basic. I’ll be using the Garmin Striker 4 Plus.

[@ramlicerio4268]

How much was it

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Retailed here for $1200.

[@MidWestRiverRat]

Hahaha you did take my advice on trying to tip it! 😆 You totally should have filmed that!

[@jigginwithjake2796]

MidWest RiverRat I almost did. Pool issues.... water was green as the lake water.

[@naturalseven5841]

Jake it was nice to meet you at lake Sandchris today how did the madden voyage go.

[@jigginwithjake2796]

The pleasure was all mine! Maiden voyage was excellent. Got a feel for it, caught a few fish and made it home safe. Couldn’t ask for better! Thanks for asking about my channel! Glad to have you on board!

[@barddzen]

I just purchased this kayak used, so it had a lot of gear already and I've been on the water once (it's late fall where I'm at) and I really enjoyed this video on the overview. I just added (yesterday) an anchor trolley. Where I live we have some very slow moving rivers, but they do have current that can pull me off a spot, especially when fly fishing. We also fish with my grandkids and sometimes need to anchor with them (on their kayaks), not quite self-sufficient yet with the bait and unhooking of fish. I'd suggest a cart, this kayak is quite heavy to drag.

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Glad you enjoyed the video! Hope you consider subscribing. I’ve got several other videos out featuring this kayak and more will be coming in the future! It’s late fall here as well. Thought it was gonna be put up for the year. But, 75 degree temps had me out on it yesterday. May even be out again tomorrow!

[@craigkrage2689]

You need to load that dude up and take it down Sugar Creek for a proper review while you're pulling in some white bass.

[@jigginwithjake2796]

Craig Krage the options are endless!
