Thinkin about PVC and a heavy pool noodle

Ahead of what l circled seems to be plenty of room to move around. Will the seat flip back to have the extra space behind where l circled? Is the area l circled, raised ? It appears to be. where the arrows point aren’t they raised off the main deck? And the ruler sit down some? This is more like it. Seat flipped back. Looks like a rubber mat.

with the seat flipped up, forward of the area where you stand, the orange area, there's a partition then another are to stand ? Seems it's broken up and not level, and cause you to trip?

here what Pelican said from Canada.....It's pretty rigid and not flimsy and doesn't push in but yeah the width is only 30 inches. Good day, Thank you for contacting us!

I learned to do homework way ahead of time.... especially after I made a MISTAKE ! Out of these yaks which one would you pick for under $1K ? I know it's been 4 years and they are on thier web site for $849 still under $1K And out of the ones reviewed that you would pick, and if you picked the one I did, what does it lack of importance ? I like the Bigfish 105. It has a well for battery and transducers, the rest don't. Stand up area with the most room, multistage adjustable flip back seat, the rest don't. Side pockets for gear...

I weigh 200 and am 6 foot tall.

really? I have foam practice golf balls.... that really makes a difference ? done other than some pvc and noodles for a stabilizer good to know thanks mine didn't. The keel to the top of the deck isn't that high to drain. Unless vegetation a few inches below the surface caused the water be level at the top of the holes. Looks like wilderness recon radar and atak are the widest ones. Thinking back to the Navy days.... ballast was a more stable ship. After refueling it didn't rock as much. Depending on sea conditions on a cruise ship I remember a crew member telling me that they deballast and ballast for maintain stability and handling. My yak capacity is 275.

the width even for the widest yak has to be minimum 42 between my wheel wells.

yeah I saw the trail hitch extension earlier, yeah. Good thing ! Nice truck ! Same as mine !

I like how wide it is stability is 5 star and the fact of standing up with ease, but now I would need a trailer. My Tacoma won't hold it. Money Money Money ! LOL I like the Wilderness Radar 115's and Recon 120's deep hull as well as how wide it is. Should of did my homework and not jumped on this one I have. My wife was cringing on $475 for The Blitz fishing yak. I really thought I was set with it. Anyone reading this who hasn't bought one yet...DO NOT jump on one or for that matter if someone says they have a couple of yaks and the cheaper one they like better than the more expensive one. Having no clue would be talking to people who have experience first. The person I talked to at first really wasn't interested in giving details. This place is best as far as I'm concerned. Thanks guys !

Wilderness Tarpon 120 seems nice

I have a Pelican blitz 100 and took it out today for the first time AFTER l modified it. After awhile l started to think about if l didn’t like it? Seeing it in the rack standing up stern to bow it looked big. Sat in it on the floor, it was appealing. It was in my price range and l couldn’t justify over $1K. It was a little windy today on a small lake and was loaded with vegetation being gathered on my paddles. I had to barely put them in the water to go forward. Surprisingly it didn’t take much effort at all to move through the water. If too much effort was used it turned. The water was at the top of the drain holes with out a load save me, need to insert foam practice golf balls. It was sensitive rocking side to side tipping if l paddled to hard leaning forward. Just firm strokes had to be use, just my arms. Guess l’ll have to get used to it considering it’s my first one.

Bungee line would prevent keeping paracord line less taut to easily securing a zig zag cleat.

I like that the cleat has a locking lever

Loosely from a pic l saw and a light small one. Thanks for the help, l’ll see how it goes this weekend.

Found a way to make a slip knot at any section of standing end. Make a slip knot with a loop on standing and another loop on standing end and feed it through the first loop. Then slip loop through theslot of the cleat and hook one side of the loop on one side of the bar. A quick disconnect from cleat. If you fellas have a better way please let me know.

I hope my title is clear. Is there a slip knot without taking the rest of the line off the cord caddy l bought ?

I’m wondering if the discs on the tornado anchor will hang up on wood.

If the guy had trouble tying the line to the spool, which yes, they can be a pain, but to loose your spool? Nah. I did it myself, for the first time recently, so why have someone else do it ? There's no special way to spool it other than start with mono first if using braid. Don't know if it's necessary but I'm sure someone here will say why. So the braid won't slip, I'm gathering, due to the wax coating on the braid, which is odd considering I don't think one would use most of the line to get that close to the end before replacing the line form age. Maybe so depending on how much you fish.

Think 5 pounds will do it ? I was thinking 10.

Ok, flipping the bail over with the finger on the same hand is possible ? Never did it…

Think l can stand in mine ? I'm thinking not. Haven’t had in the water yet.

Sorry l meant over head not knowing what pitching is. Underhand, got it.

In your experience… what reel pitches the most accurately ? Spin or caster ? Or is it preference or skill ? Just futsin in a feild with my bait caster, l see its easier to control by stopping the line with my thumb. Overhead casting l slightly have backlash.

Watched a vid about a guy said the same thing about getting hung up and being slim to none retrieving it..the first anchor l pic’d. He likes the chain better and mentioned about adding or taking away to control drift.
