i realize I am kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to stream newly released series online ?
Was waiting for you to review this one, great vid bro!
Thanks bro, did you check the entire playlist, lots of great videos there
I love watching your reviews!
Thank you Matt 😀😀 how is your Sunday going?
Pretty good. Relaxing.
Great review. How do you think this kayak would do off shore? I'm guessing it's too short, but i the hull design seems to do well for a 10 ft.
I'm watching all of these. This thing looks like a tank! While it looks like it will be comfortable and stable for me, it looks hard to move and slow. For as massive it is, I wish it had more storage. Thanks for the great video!
For the size it moves well and it has plenty of storage 😀 maybe I should do a video comparison with other kayaks to see how much it can take
That is a cool little boat. Visiting from the 30 days group. This is the video that caught my eye enough to watch.
Ohh wow, thank you, this boat is pretty awesome, it is so stable and still moves. 😀
Very entertaining and informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I know this is an older video, but which kayak between this and the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 do you recommend? I'm leaning heavily towards the Old Town. Thank you.
Between the 3 Waters Big Fish 108 and Native Titan Propel 13.5, which craft do we feel offers greater overall stability? And which one has more depth in the cockpit area?
If you had to choose between the big fish 108 or the vibe yellowfin 120 for off shore which one would you recommend?
Love the intro. And still like the lookof that big fish108
Thanks bro, it looks impressive
That’s a nice boat
Hi Aliex i enjoy all the reviews you do about kayaks . I want one, but i have never been on one! I am terrified of the thought of flipping one where i fish in a big lake. I have a bass hunter 2 men boat that is powered by a 45 lb trolling motor I feel very safe with it. it stays afloat even when it gets feel with water. Is a hustle getting it all together...So i would love to have a stable easy carry kayak in the back of my truck. I just dont know which one i want.I enjoy fishing when i get off work. I dont carry my small boat with me. What do you recomend?
Lindo caiaque. Lindo local e belo equipamentos. Abraço
Alex, did you adjust the peddle be on the original “glued” nut?
What kind of stick mount do u have for the kayak?
I'm debating the Big fish 108 and the Pelican 130 hydrive, thoughts?
That drive did not like the grass. Are you gonna test one of the NuCanoe pivot drives? I don’t think it will handle any grass, but would love to see
what do you think of the transducer arm thingy?
This or hobie pro angler pro 12 which one is more stable?? Which one is more easier to paddle and pedal?? I really love your vids. Keep up the great work.
This will be more stable than hobie pa 12 but not as fast, nor will it be able to go as shallow. Hobie PA is also $2000 more
@@AliexFolgueira Thank you brother. Tight lines.
Good video. How do u think the boat would handle in inshore waters?
I love mine! Have the same color and so far really love this Big Fish 108. It has a lot better steering than my Titan. I buy those $6 cushions from the kitchen department at Walmart and put three of them on the seat of my Yaks. Then you can kick back like a Sultan and stay out there for hours. More comfortable than my living room recliner.
I have purchased a BigFish 108.How have you rig your bigfish? Do you have a video? Thank you
How did you mount your paddle?
That kayak sits high above the water, must be super stable. More stable than pdl 120?
Alex can you please tell me where I can buy this kayak now ? I am really interested
Prop won't fall back down if you lock it, like it should be. Thanks for the video
Is that rudder control in the way at all? Looks like it’s always hitting the leg.
Does that seat go any further back? Seems like your knees almost in your chest, I’ve been looking at this one. Thanks for video
It can move forward and back
Was wondering if something would have to be fabricated to cover the hole if you just go somewhere to paddle
I just picked up the slayer max but this is good option for the price!
Check my offshore test video of the big fish, epic stuff
When you got on it peddling & was only doing 3 - 4 hp , man that thing was loud. I think the noise just ruined it for me & how slow it actually is.
I still got Old Towns Topwater PDL 106 at the top of list for best stealthy tournament kayak for quality, layout, & pdl system, then price.
Great review though Aliex, Awesome job bro.
Don't know if the noise will get better over time, new drive, I'm gonna compare it to the 106 soon
@@AliexFolgueira In taking into consideration for a "tournament kayak" though, it was way too loud. If it was just for personnal use i wouldnt mind it. Thanks bro.
Noise is the reason I went with a mirage system. I was really unimpressed with how loud pdl systems are.
Huge and 👍
HEY I just ordered one of these, what is your thought on mounting a short yak attack rail to the grey area right next to the seat?
As long as you don't break the sterring on the left
I wish it was compared to a Hobie next to it since a Hobie is the standard.
My back hurts just thinking of loading and unloading that kayak. It's a nice boat boat but something I would not want to move around very much.
Hola Alex,una pregunta ya que tu conoces todos los fishing kayaks en el Mercado.
Si tienes que elegir uno,así sea caro te quedas con el Hobie Outback 2020?
estoy en la compra de uno y me gustaría saber tu opinión.
Muchas gracias,tight lines.
compra el outback 2020/21 la otra opción seria el Shearwater com bixpy y el hobie m 180 drive pero suerte con poder encontrar el drive
I'm going back and forth between this kayak and the hoodoo impulse 120. I would normally be in creeks and rivers occasionally lakes
I’m torn between this and old town topwater 120. Gonna use my old kayak as my river beater.
@@SumOneSomewhere same here. The Old Town's are next to impossible to find right now, but the Big Fish are both in stock near me.
Rough water this or hobie pro angler 12.
Hey man thanks for the 108 videos I just got mine based on how well they work for you. Question though they didn't have a 108 drive and so they gave me a 103 drive and said it was the same but mine moves around a lot. I don't think your does how wide are the gray locking bars thanks again
i think it is the same drive, all these drives move bro, all brands
@@AliexFolgueira first thanks for the comment and for getting back to me! I believe you when you say they all move but mine has more than a 1/2in gap and make a clicking sound under alot of torque. Love the boat and how stable it is. thanks for your videos with the 108!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Take that baby offshore dude🤘🏻👽🤘🏻
windowclean100 no way not with out some huge legs or a motor
Michael Schaller 🤣
What up brotha
Hey would you take it off shore?
Thinking about this or the predator mk
Jim from 3 Waters kayak has taken it offshore
How heavy it is? Can carry on roof of Sadan (mini Clubman) or family van.(Grand caravan)
115# I think most roof racks support 115# but you gotta check the manufacturers thing
Wow
Epic intro ah?
Would love to see that yak with Bixby power
What would you choose between a vanhunk angler or big fish 108?
two very different boats
Aliex, or you say okay time to turn on the Bixpy, enough exercise today. Speed 6 to 8 and cruise to your spot. Taking in nature, enjoying a morning coffee, on the water. 😎 🎣
Great video bro by the way what kind of warranty comes with the 108
Hull is 3 years, drive at least one 1 not sure
@@AliexFolgueira thanks bro I'm sold dont wanna bother u but how bout the seat is it comfortable to sit in all day
@@johnandersen4036 it is, also seating so high is nice too, you can always add some cushion if you like
@@AliexFolgueira hey thanks for taking time out for this your the only one really got knowledge bout 108 only seen 2 other vids and your only one with most feedback been following this yak since icast
hello, i’m new to your channel, have you tested it in the ocean? thank you
Welcome, I put it thru the surf ruclips.net/video/5so3LdXHH7U/видео.html
Which one is more stable for a 6ft 260 guy this one or the BonafideSS127
This one no doubt
Have you had any issues with this boat yet? I have a buddy who got the 1st one in NC and he has had issues with it EVERY TIME he has taken it out. Including the Pro Drive system breaking, the rudder cables breaking, the pedals coming off.
🤔🤔 Did he tighten the pedals right? You have to make sure they are, also the chain may skip but you can adjust it easy.
@@AliexFolgueira the pedals were not tightened properly from the distributer, also they dont use any thread lock on the products. On a side note, how did you get to the point where you are sponsored or are representing these companies? I want to do that too.
Would like to see a depth comparison of each drive. Like how deep does the bottom of each drive go.
Working on that video
@@AliexFolgueira good, I'm anxious to see that. Thx
I am 6'9 and have been eyeing this kayak for a min but am afraid to pull the trigger on buying one. Need a review with a taller person like myself.
best thing would be to go to a dealer and sit on one, any 10 ft pedal propel drive kayak then measure teh disnace of teh seat to the drive and compare
I dont know bro. I GUESS id prefer to get my workouts on the water, instead of the gym? You should've came back with that sweet new Moken 10 instead of this. Cool new intro with the drone footage & music though :)
This is a workout, try it
Nice video! What’s the fastest peddle drive kayak you’ve tested?
Big one that you can actually use? The predator pdl was the fastest
Aliex Folgueira ok cool👍
Have you peddled a native manta Ray?
@@bobseaver7807 I have had a manta ray pedal drive and its definitely a nice yak good for everything from rivers to offshore and its a super quiet kayak the two biggest downsides for me.
1. Even when packing really light their is no room for anything at all especially when you have the drive stored into the up position.
2.the rudder and rudder controls now mine may have been a defect but the rudder cables kept falling off and most people upgarde to a aftermarket system to replace the stock rudder cables anyways and the stock rudder that comes with the boat is to small so you may want to upgrade to a boondox rudder and it helps so much it will turn on a dime with the boondox upgrade.Last thing I will say is traded mine back for a jackson crusie fd and I love the manta ray but this jackson kayak is really amazing , its just my opinion but it could be worth it to look up the jackson kayak cruise fd if you like the manta ray but it also depends and what waters you're yaking in to find the right kayak to fit.Good luck
Also the Jackson cruise fd has about same speed has a hobie compass headwaters did a race and it was very entertaining.
i am it thanks for the info. Much appreciated👍
I would like to see a bay test though in about 12 to 15 mph wind. Great video
I've been out in a 16' Carolina Skiff on Tampa bay in 20 mph sustained and I will never do that again. Running with the wind wasn't that big of a deal but, running against was pretty dumb. I wouldn't attempt experimenting with a kayak in that type of weather. Better to find some creeks and mangrove canals for fishing those conditions.
@@aos7194 I've been paddling my kayak in 15 mph winds, and hear the pedal drive is much easier in wind. I usually fish protected areas But still have to pass in the open rough channels to get there
@@justincoghlan5335 oh ok. I understand. I'm going to be looking at 1 this Wednesday. My biggest concern is the noise of the drive itself
@@aos7194 if your concerned with scaring the fish. You could use the drive to get to the area you want to fish, then paddle quietly. I like a stealthy approach myself. I'm probably going with the 12 foot riot mako. But I don't think any of the drives are noisy enough to spook fish unless your right on top of them. Could pedal easy once in your fishing area too
@@justincoghlan5335 lol. You're thinking the exact way I am 1200 vs 1800. The company i plan on purchasing from in Saint Petersburg is also a Riot dealer and is picking up a Mako 12 to allow me a comparison
They still sell these?
Les escribo desde la República Dominicana estoy interesado en adquirir uno de sus kayak cual sería el procedimiento para compralo
Hola, no puedo mandar los Kayaks fuera del paiz
What paddle are you using
This one, Amazon sells it (affiliate link) amzn.to/48aAaiT
Do you suggest this or nucanoe flint for my first kayak?
Where do you fish? This is a great boat to start with
@@AliexFolgueira mainly will be lakes in Oklahoma occasionally some rivers
If i can afford the 12ft would you suggest that over the 10.5. Weight sounds kinda high is only downside i see
See the first few minutes out on the water 👀 that look like the Hummer of Kayaks 😂😂 holysh*t
Impressive stuff haha, did you enjoy the intro?
@@AliexFolgueira the intro with the drone view give the best look at the size of the yak for sure 👍👍Aliex🤝
What’s size of paddle do you use for the 108.
Wouldn't go less than 250, I say shoot for 260
Muchas Gracias.
Do you know any single kayak trailers that are good
malone trailers are epic, check them out
Here it is! Somehow my notifications got turned off. I’ve been waiting for this video
Ohh man RUclips treats this channel very, very badly I should have 20x the views and subs, still the channel got to 8 million views today!
Would you prefer this over the Lightning Strike?
Depends if I'm fishing inshore or small lakes or ponds yess, offshore or covering long distance no
@@AliexFolgueira I plan on fishing Chesapeake Bay which can have pretty strong current. Would the Lightning Strike be a comfortable kayak for offshore?
That is a THICK kayak!
Did you like the intro?
@@AliexFolgueira I definitely did! Very well done.
Looking to buy this but the only thing that’s puts me off is the weight.
Basically 4.5 mph... Top speed for a peddle kayak, is a pig... Most any peddle kayak can reach 5 mph. Most can do 3 mph very easily, where you were doing 2.4... It better be stable as hell for the tradeoff...
Is it a stiff pedal or easy to turn?
Turns well not super stiff
@@AliexFolgueira would you recommend this one or the old town
@@FATALUTY10 old Town has a better drive
@@AliexFolgueira what's better about it?
@@FATALUTY10 ot smoother, 5 years warranty
It's great to have a pole for filming you boat like on water BUT for reviews do close ups minus you
Here like 8 videos on this boat I bet you will find plenty if angles to your liking Big Fish 108 Pedal Drive Kayak: ruclips.net/p/PLfXm-PtTlrvzP9ZYvqTBGjFPEFxnsCtF1
5:52 you said it not me
Hahaha "crazy"
Peddling that thing look so awkward. The motion doesn’t look natural like riding a bike at all.
I just make it look weird lol, feels natural to me, try it
Chick fil to the mofo-A
The pedaling looks awkward. The positioning of the seat to pedals doesn’t look efficient when you’re pedaling
I’m awkward
@@AliexFolgueira then you’re made for each other bud 👍🏼
Looks like a great fishing kayak, but definitely won't win any races.
u were draggin ur rudder
Thanks didn't notice
I'm no expert, but those cranks look way too long.
Panotaker they do look a little long. I noticed that too
This kayak looks heavy..
115 # but it is easy to manage
Hold the phone! I was wrong. I bought this Big Fish because my Native rudder system was SO bad on both of my Natives. The Big Fish lasted a few trips and the eightball steering self destructed, cable broke inside the handle just like the Natives did. Garbage made to sell, not last. So sick of this from modern manufacturing.
Rudders break all the time don't matter who the manufacturer is, it is cables and things it will break, heck even your break on your car Breaks break
@@AliexFolgueira After 4 trips on the water? That is unacceptable to me.
@@johnstrand2247 so you had issues with native and now 3 Waters 🤔🤔 is the rudder properly installed? Did you hit rocks and stuff?
@@AliexFolgueira No rocks. Didn't hit anything. I live on a lake. One minute it was turning fine, then kind of a grinding feeling and SNAP! Not fun having to use a paddle to try to steer in a heavy crosswind. Thought I could just lift the rudder out of the water but then it acted like a sail in the wind and kept spinning me so I had to drop it back down.
Do you know of a video that shows how to fix this? Been bad weather here right now but looked like the plastic piece didn't want to come apart.
Fly a drone much. No sale
What?
Faster than a titan ..,more stable than a slayer....it’s the bigfish 108..lol....seriously is it???🤷🏾♂️
Def more stable than the slayer, slower, faster than titan 10? Should be
