- In this video, I want to explore the must-have kayak bass fishing tournament accessories and some that will make life a lot easier. I think it's almost impossible to include every bass fishing accessory for kayaks but this one will give you a solid foundation and list some items not found in other videos.

Thank you for this video! First year out on a kayak for me so good to know everything I'm gonna need!
Thank you and I'm glad the video could help.
I have a sit on top kayak. I purchased pool noodles and stuffed(crammed) as many as possible inside my kayak. Having a half water filled kayak is extremely hard to control. I also modified and installed a rear trolling motor. I’ve done everything and more stated in this video. Great advice.
Thanks for watching. I never thought of that. The main thing is to stay safe.
Thanks for this video Chris. I’m fairly new to kayak fishing, well fishing in general, and while I’m not into tournaments yet, I certainly am planning for it. This is a great help sir, thank you!
Thank you and I wish you luck and tight lines on your fishing journey.
Chris great startup video on the must have’s I would recommend this in a kayak being the smallest object on the water, so I recommend you have plenty of illumination in the water green and red navigational lights as well light up the inside of your kayak great diy videos without punching any holes into your kayak? I even saw someone light up a pole with Christmas lights look! Safety first!!!!
Thank you so much. I definitely believe in safety first. My tournament partner made an LED pole that you can see a mile away. I agree with you 100% that we should do everything we can to be visible on the water including additional lights, flags and headlamps. Not only are we one of the smallest vessels but we are also one of the lowest vessels in the water.
Another great video full of great information! Loving your videos!
Thank you so much. I'm going to keep grinding.
OK You forgot one. I took my titanx out for the first time. A dadgum must have is someone to pedal for you. Massive learning experience for me. My legs are so sore they go in different directions one doesnt bend. The other just drags behind me. Lord have mercy. My butt muscles are so tight I could crack walnuts. I loved every minute of it. I will be buying a motor to help out asap though. No motor I highly suggest peadalling upstream so the wind/current can help bring you back. Not saying I did that but 4 miles down stream was a terrible lack of judgement in 15 mph winds.
You got me in tears. You just gotta get used to pedaling. It takes a little time. The first time I went out with someone in my original Titan 12 I tried to keep up with them and that was a mistake. When your not used to going at a pace like that it will cramp you up. lol I'm probably going to get a motor next year. What kind do you think you will get?
@@ReelTalkwithChris I have a 12v 45lb thrust minnkota I got today. Hand cntrol model. I am gonna mount to rear of boat so it doesnt interfere with garmin. My son in law is machinist He is already making lift and folding mount so I can use from seat for lifting and steering.
@@darrylcoats1676 That sounds like a winning combination. Email me a picture once you get everything set up. If I hadn't said it before, thank you for all the interaction you do with me on here.
@@ReelTalkwithChris Hard to find folks you know would do the right thing even if no one is watching. I feel your one of those Men. We share some of the same similar life experiences and the results that come with them. Thru my experieces I have become an excellent judge of character. You would have my 6 so I got yours.
@@darrylcoats1676 Well said brother well said. I'm glad I got people like you in the fight with me.
Great video sir super informational. Yes the power pole is a must have for me and I would highly recommend it for anyone serious in kayak bass fishing!
Thank you Cameron. I'm going to look into it.
A wide mouth bottle is my MVP.
Most people are going to be lost on that one but your so right. lol
Another great video Chris. I loved how you gave an alternate lower cost option for some of the higher priced items.
Thank you. After investing in a kayak you probably wanna cut costs any way possible. lol
Thanks brother!
Thank you for your support.
Great info Chris thanks for sharing! I fish as a co angler as well looking to get into kayak tournys next year.
Thanks Rob. I will tell you this, fishing out of a kayak will make you a better co-angler.
@@ReelTalkwithChris outstanding I need to get better lol
@@CajunRobFishing My motto is to be a better angler today than I was yesterday!
Great content...
Thank you so much. I subscribed to your channel as well.
@@ReelTalkwithChris Anytime....
This is a great video! I haver been focus so much on the kayak and upgrades. Im looking for an upgradeable Kayak, so over time I can customize to my needs . . . do you have a few recommendation not looking for cheapest or the most expensive. Thank you
Thank you again. When picking out a kayak I always recommend getting to demo the kayak first. Don't just demo the kayak you want but demo kayaks in different price ranges. There are so many other factors to consider like what type of waters you will be fishing, the weight capacity, are you planning on putting a motor on it, your budget, will you be tournament fishing and how will you be transporting your kayak. Think about these questions and shoot me an email to reeltalkwc@gmail.com and I will help you out. If you don't want to send an email I can help you right here but there will be a lot of questions I have to ask and I don't want all your info out here. Either way I will help.
Great video! Where did you get your tow rope? I can’t find one like that with a nice handle.
Thank you so much. I got the tow rope from Rock Outdoors. Go to rockoutdoors.com and you should be able to get it.
Hmm, I looked there first. Maybe it looks different on their website vs. your video.
Look up these two items on Amazon - Obcursco PWC Dock Lines Boat Dock Lines 1/2” x (7ft & 14ft) or Heavy Duty Float Rope for Kayak Tow Line, Anchor Marker Buoy. I bought these ropes over 3 years ago so they might not sell them anymore. For a tow rope I really like the second option because it has a float on it. Hope I was able to help.
Thanks Chris! I want to use it for dragging my kayak so I like the first one with the spongy neoprene.
No problem. Anytime I can help out or answer a question just let me know.
Of all the items mentioned what's going to help me catch more fish?
That's a tough question, but off the top of my head I'm going to say the net.
So, I have the onyx auto and manual inflatable PFD, and it has misfired 2 times now, so I'm switching back to standard PFDs
I'm not saying that the auto inflatables are not good, I'm just taking any chance of it malfunctioning out of the equation by not using them. lol
@@ReelTalkwithChris oh, I'm not saying they aren't good either, just that I've had too many malfunctions with this specific one to continue using it lol
@@untracedr3c0n74 Yeah get rid of that one. I was in a tournament, and it was a heavy downpour for at least 6 hours and the boater's PFD inflated. lol
Do you have any videos on recommended weight capacity for kayaks? I just picked up a kayak to fish in and the capacity is right above my total weight and the weight of my gear and I end up with water coming in the scupper holes.
Hey I would recommend Bearded dad fishing videos he has a couple of videos on weight capacity for big guys great information!
Weight capacity plays a major part in deciding on what kayak you purchase. What kayak do you have?
@@ReelTalkwithChris Chris in do new to this kayak bass fishing all I have been able to do is watch RUclips videos and learn in July I’m getting my eye cataract surgery done for better vision once that is done the first kayak I’m very interested in is the Nucanoe unlimited. Than the rest of the year game on in out on the lake and fishing like crazy LOL.
@@granvillej3316 July is right around the corner. Are you going to put a motor on your kayak?
@@ReelTalkwithChris Yes sir I am either the motor guide or that new Newport 300! And plenty of power to keep me on the lake for hours lol!
