Hey bro, beautiful vessel. I love my 120 pdl. Was going to get the sportsman, but I love having the PDL Drive. Knowing I could have that amazing kayak after a year of research, and saving, and it'll be my 1st and last kayak. I see no reason to upgrade. With the 120, you have storage, a well designed deck and hull. I added my Bixby j2 to my rudder, and purchased a 2nd bixpy battery. So now I have 3 ways to get home, paddle, pdl, and motor. I run all my electric off of my DIY 30 Cal ammo box from harbor freight, with a Cabela's 12V battery, USB/VM/And 12V plug for additional charg and run options. The spare bixpy battery is buckled behind my seat, another DIY Mod i found on you- tube. I fish large lakes and resevoirs, miles long and wide. Also tournaments. I can cover a whole lake, and cruise back to the ramp at approx 5 mph. Odd town I think is just in a different league, because it feels more like a one man boat. And me at 5ft 7 149 lbs, I can walk bow to stern and cast, site fish, get into any of my storage, or change my wires to a spare battery. And I have had the wind kick up in the middle of a lake with 2 ti 3ft rollers, and have always felt safe. And I'm fresh off the bank. This summer was my 1st season. Good luck bro.👍 🙏 🎣

Thanks for doing this review. I have the Predator 13 paddle kayak and was thinking of upgrading to the Predaror PDL, but it seems like the Topwater 120 is more stable, and cheaper. I fish up north of bodega a lot and was worried the 120 might not be able to handle ocean fishing but it looks like it can do that just fine.

Hopefully you get this comment. I noticed you have, what it looks like is a Garmin Striker 4, on your 120 PDL. If so where did you place the transducer? I know there is a mounting plate on the bottom. I've seen a couple videos where they had to modify either the mounting plate or the transducer bracket. To get it to fit. Thanks for your time.

@MooMooOutdoors

4 жыл бұрын

120 pdl mounting plate really only works with humminbirds since they are same company and with some transducers with modification. Striker 4 transducer is too thick to fit. I put my transducer inside the rectangular hatch behind the seat using duct seal.

Great review. Those were some big swells, which makes for a good test for it. Did the drive feel more smooth after using it more? The one I demoed did not feel that smooth. I can definitely feel the difference with my Pro Angler 360 versus my Outback. It requires way more effort to pedal, but you get used to it after a while. The mirage drive 360 is amazing. You should make him take a big whiff of Durian and then eat it. I can only eat Balut after a couple of beers. I tried sober, but couldn't do it 😆

That topwater is pretty buoyant and I know it's top heavy but it sure seemed to be much flatter riding those waves. Never know, the more you fish with the topwater, you may prefer it over your usual kayak rig. BTW, I would not have eaten any of that cooked baby bird in a shell, haha. Enjoyed a full-watch, Moo.

Hey PK! Have you ever been in the predator PDL? If so how does it compare to the top water 120? I'm about a week away from buying a kayak and I really have my heart set on the predator PDL but I've heard the top water is more stable...

Thanks for the support. No I have not been on the Predator PDL. Just by looking at the hull of Predator, it seems like it's more fit for rough water even though it's does not have the primary stability that Topwater offers. I think they both are good seaworthy kayaks.

LMAO!!! Too funny!!! It's 2022 and I'm seriously considering buying a Salty for northwest coastal fishing and crabbing. They're going for $2200 new but I also have the opportunity to buy a very lightly used and fully rigged Hobie Outback that has a sweet big wheel cart and gps/fish finder for the same price. I know you're familiar with both. I love the reverse drive of the salty for staying alongside the local jetty against the wind but the Hobie comes with a bunch of goodies. What do you think? Lol!
