Using the Intex Excursion Pro on a mildly windy day on the lake. Definitely recommend this kayak! Sorry for all the bugs the black flies were horrible when this was filmed.

I respect you puttin the fish back in right away. leaving them out for a long time taking pics and measuring and stuff causes them to lose a lot of oxygen and get sick. Not a way that a true sportsman would be proud of. Good job out there and that kayak is looking strong!!

Always, and anytime you hook one in the gills its a mandatory keep in my books. Never let a good fish go to waste.
Thanks for this upload. By the way, landing nets are handy :)
My Excursion Pro is on the way!!! Kayak fishing without having to own a truck!!! :D Loved the sail and anchor you had as well!!! Great vid!!

Thanks for the feedback! Its a nice little get-up for sure. I actually ran the kayak as a tandem one trip and we use the sail to get back to the boat launch. It was a really windy day and it was still chugging along faster than the hard shells nearby were paddling. :)

@@inflatablemooseadventures got lucky and found one on sale, body glove 4 buckle, lots of room for the arms. The worse part about having the kayak is being at work on a beautiful day, I love it. After my first paddle I knew right away a better paddle was necessary, the stock paddles are 5 pieces which creates a lot of play that's very noticable, the shaft was to short for the width of my kayak as well as my hight and the blades were to flimsy to really dig in for stronger paddling, so I bought the Pelican Angler and man oh man the difference in my paddling was greatly improved.

Mines the original 2 seater aswell! Its super functional because you can set it up for either 1 or 2 people. I'd recommend you pick yourself up a longer paddle - the ones that come with it are fine but you will find a longer paddle will help tremendously getting around.

Must be new! this is the first iteration of the excursion pro. I saw they also released a K1 single seater. Personally I like the size of this one and it gives you the flexibility or having someone else tag along if needed.
How long did it take you to inflate the kayak? Thinking of getting this for my son and I to enjoy fishing on quiet ponds together.

You just have to be careful. When you reel in and cast its not really a concern so long as you are always aware of where your lure is in relation to the kayak. The only slightly worrisome situation is having to unhook a large fish inside the kayak. In these instances I would opt to have a towel or pad inside to rest the fish and avoid the hook accidentally puncturing anything. Though keep in mind there are 3 compartments for air in this kayak and the material is pretty tough, even if you were to puncture one of the pontoons you would still stay afloat and it would take a while for it to fully deflate. Always bring a patch kit and the pump along for the ride to be on the safe side :)
