What are you fishing out of?, Show us your rig

Mine is Wavewalk S4 model with a Tohatsu 3.5Hp or Yamaha 6HP.

This dingy has a solid transom were I mount depending on needs:

80Lb Minkota or
101 Lb Minkota or
3.5 Hp Tohatsu or
6 HP Yamaha.

The old Yamaha 2.5Hp is too weak, I sold it already.
Max sped with 6HP is 20km/h in calm water.

Here is my new kayak and set up.
Wilderness systems A.T.A.K. 120 with a helix 7 setup

Nevermind my phone cant post pictures for some reason.

Hey Steve.
Thats a sweet Yak. I have a Hobie Pro Angler 12.

Can you take a photo of the transducer mount. I am interested to see if it is hull protected like the Hobie.

If you google it there are lots of videos on installing a transducer and cable routing options. It is protected and has a hole for the transducer cable so no drilling.

Greetings,
I have been lurking for a while and just signed up for the sight. I thought I better make a post.
I have a Wilderness Systems Radar 135, with peddle drive, Helix 5. I love this thing! Very comfortable. I'm a bit of a handy guy and enjoy doing my own modifications....I think the kids call them "hacks".
I'm looking to get out on the Lake Erie/Huron this season and try some deeper water trolling for steelhead/salmon/walleye...never done that.
I will be watching this board.
Thanks

Good looking yak. Nice and low to the water, easy access to the helix. What's your average speed you. Maintain while peddling?

^^^Thanks. That seat has a "high" and "low" position. High position is better for peddles. I don't have the peddles installed in this photo. If I remember correctly, an easy peddle to keep about 2 to 2.5 miles and hour.

That's about what I have found as well. I have a old town bigwater / predator peddle yak and I can cruise at about the same. Really given er I can hit 6 mph but it is unsustainable at that speed.

I like that you have two seat positions, keep it low during rough water or high up when you want a better vantage point.

How is it for standing up and fishing?

Welllll...the kayak is great for stand up fishing...but I'm not so great at it.

I like the simple things in life

This is probably the biggest fish I've caught out of it

Holly crap man! Nice fish

For years I've just used the crappy, 15+ year old sit ons that my wife and I picked up at some cottage show. Recently bought a 10 foot Sun Dolphin fishing kayak that was on sale at Can Tire. It's not got great reviews, but I like it, and it works fine for me.

Anything is an upgrade on our super heavy, 9 foot, recreational sit ons, but I had fun with those too, and even completed the "Float your fanny, down the Ganny" event in Port Hope, including the rapids into town, and 10 foot waves when we lived on Lake Ontario, in Oshawa.

Most of my fishing is done from my 23' Bayliner cuddy, but I really love the simplicity of paddling a canoe or kayak into water I can't get to with a big boat.

Joined this site for ice fishing reports. Just might have found my new favorite space on the internet. Here's my nucanoe frontier 12.
