Nice .. i have one blue color
What was your cost for modifying your hobie for the ABAs and AKAs?
Im going to buy this reel not for what it was built for but for rockfishing 1000-2000ft of water 😂
Where can I buy a kit for Hobie proangler?
Next time use a meal prep container and you can use the clear plastic lid to cover for when it rains or just to stow
Is there a gasket I'll need to replace if I remove the power head I wanna grease the spline for preventative maintenance but don't wanna have to order and replace the gasket it's way to new
So my buddies fishfinder is mounted flat on his console so I came up with the idea of using an actual black 9 x 7“ bowl used for meal prepping and we cut the back of it off and since his fishfinder mounted with double tape on the back it Stuck right back to the panel and we also use the lid to cover the entire thing. He could still sort of see through it if it was raining a bit but yeah, great idea.
I have the same problem with my engine. But I can't get that little piece in my country. Where could I buy one online in your country?
Where might be problem. No neutral shift ? Starting in gear.
That was short and sweet and AWESOME! TY!
Thanks for watching. 🤜🤛
engine killer :(
Nice catch!! 👍🎣
Hy! I have a suzuki 5 hp year 2010,and when i real IT at max. IT start hering a harrrrrr,and IT never stop even if i put IT în gear. If i stop The motor and start IT Again ,The hrrrr stop,but when i rev IT again max,The same problem. I have a video. Please help me. Where can i send you The video? Thanks!
Really, really nice. Has anybody any experience or thoughts on making this same mod to a Hobie PA 14? I have the boonedox groovy landing gear in the back and think I could mount the back bar to the grooves in the cross bar. Still have to figure out the front. Anyone tried this?
Thanks. Yes PA14, PA12, outback, oasis, compass ive done it it all. Alot of us here in south florida have done this mod. You will need to cut the hobie AI crossbar and extend it or you can make your own crossbar and aka if your handy with a weld.
@@YakNinja Thank you. Unfortunately, I'm not handy with the weld! But if I'm not mistaken, it looks like both you and the Florida Fish Hunter use 2015 aka REAR cross bars on both the Front and Rear. Is it easier that way to mount on a PA 14? I also have seen the 2015 (V2) Akas go on the 2014 (V1) amas, I think because the 2014 amas are smaller and easier to manage. But then the 2015 V2 Akas are not a perfect fit for the 2014 V1 amas - have you had to make any adjustments for this and do you have any videos demosntrating the mod? I know FFH had one option, but I'm slow and would love a step by step demo, or an easier alterternative. Thank you.
👏👏👏
U think any muttons over there?
I believe....bought 1 recently. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I love the water gun wash down idea. I've been obsessing over whether I should put in a wash down pump. I'll be getting one of those!
Nice build! Awesome job
Epic!
Full speed? Thanks!
Would one use assist hooks on the diamond jiggs and leave the Siwash hook on the bottom Benny?
I know this is an old video but just writing you to see how this reel is holding up if you still have it
This is awesome. Do you think it would work on sand with an incline with your kayak loaded with gear. I have a Hobie Pro Angler and it's really heavy with all of my gear.
Come on, man. Keep owing so many jigs and you'll be broke. Use some stronger lines, man.
One of the most thorough explanations! Thank you
Hey, did you use a gasket (or similar) where the aka brackets mount to the Hobie gunwale? I'm attempting this same mod and the brackets don't seat perfectly (close but not perfect) flush and I'm afraid of a leak. Thank you
On my revo11 it fit perfectly flush. I did use marine goop to help seal it. On some other mods ive done like a compass i use "polly mold plastic" as a gasket like shim to make it level. Just push on it to make it level. Anothing one i use is a yellow "plastic putty spreader" from home depot. Hope that helps you.
You should have a bypass on the volt regulator , so that way you can have full power to fill the livewell.
What type of reel should I put on that rod to fish for bass and Walley
I have been wanting to do that for YEARS! Way to getterdun! How's it holding up? Still rolling in deep sand? Thanks for the tut!! BTW I hated the way the Ctug mounted. I came up with this strapless bridle thats easy to use and works great. Hope that helps and Thanks again! kzread.info/dash/bejne/jJVm0LSOktLcm7A.html
Awesome video 📸
Thank you! 🤜🤛
What is the inside diameter of this bin?
About 15.5" in diameter. www.homedepot.com/p/Rubbermaid-Commercial-Products-Brute-10-Gal-Round-Trash-Can-with-Lid-2025245/301900107
Hi - thank you very much for the video! It WILL help me with my conversion. Question - did you have a problem with the front AKA fitting fully into the AMA? The guy in this video did the same thing with the same parts and had a problem with his front AKA. kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZ9hsNGxl5CYcqQ.html So I'm confused! lol
Thanks safety is a must and this conversion will help alot! I had no problems as i already had a 2014 Adventure island. I just bought 2 rear crossbars and installed it on my revo11. In 2015 Hobie re-designed their Adventure Island making it bigger and more of a sail kayak. its best to go all parts from 2014 and older. you shouldnt run into any problems. I hope this helps with your conversion.
Fantastic video! So helpful to carry out the full spline replacement. I have to do this soon. Would it be possible to just remove the power head, turn it upside down and remove the crankshaft oil seal to get at the spline this way if it isn't seized onto the shaft? It would save having to do a full strip-down.
Its on pretty tight. I had to bang/tap the spline back in.
Dude just found your site. Watched several of your vids, you are a great inspiration for kayak anglers. Thanks for the OceanCatFishing tip, they are economically correct!!
Thanks for the kind words brother!🤜🤛
Nice Yak! I've been wanting to do the same on my Revolution 13, so I can bring my dog along. I can't seem to find who sells that outrigger kit since the Adventure Island is no longer available (as new). Any idea who'd have this kit? guessing Hobie. I haven't tried calling them yet not being sure what all I'd need if they could help. Thanks!!
Thanks man.🤜🤛 You can order them thru your local hobie dealer or westcoastsailing.net/. You can also buy a use Ai and strip off the parts and sell the rest. Check out part 2 on the parts list.
man... you need to learn how to hold that camera steady, bro. I'm already sea sick. Great rig though.
Great Video...
Thank you brotha! 🤜🤛
WOOOOOAH a brilliant video thank you.
Thanks!
I see you have been running Suzuki and Honda outboards. Which one would you recommend? Thank you
They both have their pros and cons. Personally i like the Suzuki better.
I'm wondering if a cover plate would provide better protection against impacts if it had some standoff distance from the transducer itself?
I actually made an update video where i tried to smash it to pieces. You'll love it stay tune!
what gram jigs were you using for this depth?
250g 300ft
Why do you reel right hand with conventional and left spinning?
Its more personal preference. For me Vertical jigging Left hand its easier with a spinner considering im right handed/stronger holding/controling the rod pumping/ripping the jig thru water column. Slow pitch jigging im holding the rod with my left as 1unit slowly loading/pitching the jig as my right hand is stronger/cranking.
@@YakNinja I just experienced with both and I'm right hand. Found that jigging I like left hand with my strong arm on the weight of the fish helps and I'm less tired jigging. Lexa 400 reel and that motion is perfect. Thx from Oahu
That was awesome
Thank you brotha! 🤜🤛
Great video thank you. I just got my Revo 16 and I would love to add the AMA & AKA plus the trampoline of one side. Where did you get the parts and what I need to buy? Thank you again!
Thanks man!🤜🤛 all the parts can be purchase at your local hobie dealer. Ive added the part numbers at the of the video. I recommend you purchase the hardware/screws/etc at you local hardware store.
I was thinking of using JB weld for creating a transducer cover, but I think the moldable plastic is a better option. My Hobie gets dragged across rocks and this material sounds robust. I have a side imaging transducer so I might be able to answer Johan's question after I get my project completed.
I just took mine off after 2 years and its in great beat up shape. I think glides well over gravel like pvc unlike abs where it digs into it creating a hole. I think ill make a follow up video showing how it looks.
What rod and reel were you using there bro?
Goofish black PE 2-4 paired with ocean master omn10 jigging reel
just needs front & rear fold-out stabilizing arms
Next video ill make it fly.😁
Beautiful catch! Great job 👏
Thank you brother!🤜🤛
I thought the fishing rod was going to snap in half any minute
Goofish rods dont break!😁💪
