    Dude that is some serious upgrade. I am so jealous. Keep trying, this time of year fishing is slow in the shallow. Good luck.

    Trust your kayak, it's built to be stable. A few pounds on one side, especially with outriggers, isn't going to do any harm.

    how are you transporting the kayak, like the setup for your car

      I have my setup shown in my previous videos! Just a $35 kayak rack and some ratchet straps from Home Depot

    your right side outrigger dives way to deep and creating a lot of drag hence you aren't going as fast as you like.

    • @HideshiIzu
      @HideshiIzu  3 года назад

      Yeah it does go slightly deep but the thing is if it is not in the water (or barely in it) then it doesn't provide very good stabilization.

    I've never seen the small outriggers before, are they just as good as the longer ones in terms of adding stability?

    • @HideshiIzu
      @HideshiIzu  4 года назад +2

      Which longer ones? I can't testify how good those other ones work but with these you are NOT flipping over.

    I've been wanting to do the same , what size motor did you get?

    • @HideshiIzu
      @HideshiIzu  4 года назад +1

      I got a 35lb thrust trolling motor, if you do some research you'll see that more thrust will not make you go faster and its just more expensive.

      @@califishing5026 i got the new Yamaha 2.5 super strong and reliable. Suzuki is the best lightest motor. Fuel they are almost all the same. I would recommend the Suzuki 2.5. I have a TI hobie so I took the extra weight and its super reliable. Either way those three choices of motors you can't go wrong

      Oh I saw it’s Capitola. We fished around Santa Cruz on the same day and it was really slow until about 1pm, and the fish started biting. We ended up with 8 rockfish each, not bad for a winter day.
