YakAttack Omega Rod Holder™ and LockNLoad™ Mounting System Overview - Luther Cifers

[@joseluiscuevas4699]

The best video I've ever seen! I just bought my new kayak and at the same time my omega fishing rod holder. Strong, versatile and easy to operate. All their products are top quality.

[@Manuel_Z_Kayaks]

DUDE! Take it easy with all the catch phrases. I just bought one of these still in the package for $7. Saved about $30!

[@waltn6318]

Notice on the track mount there are two tabs you can flip. Pull back the inner tab to release the track mount and the screw in post from the base of the rod holder. It took me a minute to figure that out without watching him do it on the video. Push in the outer tab to rotate the base on the track mount once it is installed. You’ll need to pull the inner tab back with a bit of force. I was being too gentle with it because I was afraid I was going to break it. Really nice and clever add on to your kayak. Makes handling your rods much easier.

I bought one. It’s the best rod holder I’ve ever had. It’s worth every penny.

[@antoniagarciapinero9135]

*Used this rod recently on a river hike in NH. It performed beautifully **enjoyable.fishing** recommend as I had hoped it would, on a whole heap of river smallies using tiny torpedoes and tubes.*

[@simonknox5580]

Awesome innovative bit of kit. I’ll certainly be buying to use on my yak here in the 🇬🇧🎣👍

[@stephenscott4687]

I love all these and the bonafide videos! Thanks for all the versatility you bring to the market.

[@JTkayakanglersweden]

I picked up two from a retailer here in Sweden, I fish from a Native Watercraft Slayer 14.5. This is the best rod holder I have ever tried up to date. Started with Scotty and then I have tried 2-3 different models from RAM. Hands down the Omega from YakAttack is IMO much better. Solid build and good quality for a fair price. Thank you guys.

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

Thanks Johnny!

[@Viper-eq7by]

took me like 45 minutes to figure out there is two triggers to the lock and load system, wish i had watched your video 1st and saved time.

[@kayakfish1411]

Love the versatility here. Looking forward to getting our hands on one!

[@robbie22570]

Amazing! Yakattack does it again! Can't wait to get one!

[@mrtilley66]

I just got 2 of the pro holders yesterday to put on my new twin troller x10 they are nice.

[@blinderb1032]

Seems pretty close to perfect 👌🏼

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

The Omega/Omega Pro our the most popular rod holders we offer and more closely resemble what people are familiar with as a classic rod holder. It is also our only rod holder that is compatible with fly rods.

[@teedub127]

Finally, a rod holder that holds an assortment of rod types. Will be at Cabela's on Dec. 1st to purchase one.

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

Unfortunately, Cabela's won't have the new rod holder till early next year.

[@teedub127]

That's OK I have plenty of other things, from the catalog, I need for my new yak, thanks

[@brianlane9534]

I just ordered these today. I should've watched the video first.

[@KeithFaber]

Very cool. I appreciate this video - there's a lot to this simple device!

[@JTkayakanglersweden]

I am really thinking about swapping out my RAM rod holders after looking at this.

[@briansisco6642]

I put one on my passport 12 and had a 25” Snook rip it clean out of the gear track. Luckily the rod leash was attached to the yak and I didn't lose anything. Is there an option for a wider T bolt? I don't think this is a YakAttack failure as it was a replacement for the Scotty that was also ripped out of the other side 2 weeks before. That one cost me some hardware thus the leashes.

[@ronkilpatrick5106]

nice, gonna have to get a couple of these.

[@InlandYaker]

Outstanding Luther!

[@wagontrack]

Good review will be ordering one or two soon.

[@seancurley7954]

Looks like you guys did it again. What's next to use this sytem?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

The LockNLoad base will be used across the line including camera mounts and fish finder mounts.

[@Madbusop718]

Great video but 1 quick question, my son has the emotions recruite youth kayak 6.5 and wants me to install a rod holder, will this setup work?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

It would need some type of track for the LockNLoad base to attach to. Here is a link to the different types of track we make: www.yakattack.us/by-product-name/geartrac/. Here is a link to find a dealer near you: www.yakattack.us/dealer-locator-1/

[@jasonmaez7434]

The bolt doesn’t fit on all tracks, just purchased an Old Town Sportsman 106 Kayak try to set the bolt in track it is to wide for the track. So please let me know what I need to do.

[@nathan6199999]

Where is that 90 degree connector sold? I can't find one and it really needs one.

[@W4HDM]

Good Stuff!

[@WillYllera]

For the pro can I take out the extra 90 degreee piece and put on 8 inch extension for when I’m down rigging on kayak?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

The only difference from the Pro and the standard Omega is the 4" extension arm. For a longer option I would go with the standard Omega and add the 8" extension arm. What 90 degree component are you referring to?

[@scubaman2003]

I can't get the mount to remove from the rod holder. Another item I bought from my local retailer was an older version and I had to get mounting hardware. Is it possible the version I have is old and doesnt remove? Only way i can mount this is ti turn the entire rod holder 20-30x to screw it in, and same to remove it. I can't get it to release when opening the clasp.

[@scubaman2003]

Ok, more determination. There is a 2nd little clasp you have to pinch to get it to fully open and allow for removal. Glad I didn't force it and break it.

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

@@scubaman2003 The inner trigger is a safety mechanism build into the LockNLoad base. You must open using the smaller trigger and the outer/larger lever will easily open with it. Here is a video that shows a how-to LocknLoad that might help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZmQdHpumdaqrrc

[@eliasdiaz8021]

Will the track adapter fit the versa track system on a tracker boat ?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

We make a specific adapter for the Versa Track for which our track mounted accessories like the Omega Rod Holder are compatible with. It is called the TurnKey adapter. Here is a link to check it out. www.yakattack.us/turnkey-track-adapter-90-mount-mta-1002/

[@NoPro1962]

Is this same size track that takes scotty prod.anotherwords can you use these with existing scotty track say on the catch 100

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

Any of our track mounted products will work with Scotty track.

[@JoseRivera-ko5uo]

Hi, The rod holder fit on a pro angle Hobie 360 rail ?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

Hey Jose, the Omega and Omega Pro Rod Holders are compatible with the stock track on the Hobie PA 360.

[@thatsmydawg]

Will this fit the rail on a johnny boat 100?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

For the Jonny Boat, Feel Free, 3 Waters, and SeaStream the factory track system is much wider than anything else in the industry. You will need our Feel Free Track Adapters to make it work and they are much cheaper than the factory adapter option. Here is a link to a 6 pack: www.yakattack.us/yakattack-feelfree-unitrack-adapter-6-pack-adapter-plate-only-aap-1012-6/

[@thatsmydawg]

I called you guys and they said they would fit. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@thatsmydawg]

I went to a place that sold them and said they stock them and they werent in stock. Came home and tried them out and they fit with no problems. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@MakzFishin]

do yall have an idea of price point?

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

$30 for the Omega and $40 for the Omega Pro. That includes everything seen in the video. All you need is to add track and you are good to go.

[@billmueller3251]

How wide is the track

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

The orange track seen in the video is the YakAttack GTSL90 GearTrac and is featured on a Live Watersports L2Fish SUP. The track is 0.9" wide.

[@travisbritt5041]

I threw mine in the trash after I almost lost a spinfisher. These are not rated for salt if anyone is considering.

[@jaredtomanek2384]

Looks like a rod leash would not be needed with these.

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

It is very secure but there is also a lashing point on the underside of the rod holder to easily attach a leash if you wanted the extra peace of mind.
