Imagine the possibilities if I had that on my revo 11. Love all the honest reviews you've been putting out put there . Very informative indeed, keep up the great work.
This will be huge for anyone with a kayak being able to cover more area with the fatigue, looking at a new outback soon i think this will be a great addition to it. Awesome review to, keep it up
This review helped me decide on the Bix J2 for my 2021 Compass. That piece of mind will be worth it when fishing large lakes and the inshore areas around Galveston.
This system is incredible, I work with the manufacture of some propulsion systems here in Brazil, you are an inspiration, congratulations for the content and editing too, big hug
Great review! I appreciate your honesty and fresh approach… I’d be very happy to add this to my Hobie TI. Looking to have just a bit of added security to get me back to shore when the winds quit and I’ve been out all day. Thanks for the chance 👍🏼
Awesome mate, great info here and an unreal comp (along with your others) to kick off 2022.
I'd put this on my compass to assist with the bigger areas (such as blue rock lake). Rear mounted seems to be the go to still allow for mirage drive usage as you approach a fishing spot. Tight lines chieftain.
Really great review and insight on this motor! Thank you!
No problem 👍
Seems like it would be pretty damn handy for long trips and exploring new places. Nice review once again. Thanks mate
Great informative review as always Byron. I’d love to put one of these on a Native Watercraft Slayer 10. Thanks again for all your content.
Thanks for the quality review. This would make a great addition to my '21 Outback. I spend a lot of times peddling to offshore reefs and this would make life 100 times easier!
AWesome Spicewok!
Earned a like for honesty and not working for free!! I'm hear for it
Great video!! Just broke down and got one for my FeelFree Lure 13.5 and can't wait to test it out. I sadly do not like the overdrive system what so ever so this is a great substitute and the Bixpy batteries seem amazing.
Well done! I up graded my paddle kayak not long ago to a Hobie Outback which was an upgrade, but to put one of these on the back would be a game changer 🤙🏻
Awesome vid as always, thank you for your efforts putting video together it covered every question that I want to ask if I need to get one. I have the same outback and would love to have that unit on.
This is the answer to my prayers! This pocket rocket would help me with my lower back pain and overall fatigue when fishing on my hobie compass
Awesome review!! Definitely love the pedal + power option!!! Keep up the great content… Cheers!
Thanks! Will do!
I received my new 2023 PP-768 this week. I also ordered it with the Bixpy gravity rudder. Can't wait to finally install it. The PP 768 battery has a warp 13 speed, will run wide open for 2 or more hrs. But speeds 7 to 8 will last more than 24 hrs. Awesome little motor. 🌊 🎣
Great review and ripper setup, I would love to put that on my PA14 for cod fishing at lake Mulwala. Thanks Byron & Scott
Another great vid Byron. I would love this, being in my fifties its getting harder to stay out on the water for those long fishing days something like this would be a game changer for me i would put it on my compass to help me get to my favourite spots and even explore more spots without exhausting myself.
Entered Hope!
Thanks for the great content! Always a pleasure watching you. This motor would work great on my johnny bass 100. It would be a great addition to get me to the fishing holes quickly!!
A great review, I did stumble across the Bixby a while back when looking into an electric motor for a kayak and thought it was quite expensive but I guess it all makes sense when it includes the battery as well - that's usually the expensive part of a trolling motor setup.
I'd throw one of these bad boys on my newly acquired 2nd hand 2019 Compass. It'd definitely help with feeling knackered at the end of a session as you mentioned. I, too, am guilty of smashing some energy drinks on the drive home on the regular 😂
This is a huge plus to the outback setup I have. Having the ability to cover so much more area and not strain my legs would be a huge benefit
I love my 120 pdl. Now saving for my J2 Bixby. I have ❤ condition. I do like to paddle and pedal when I get to my spots. But this year I want to tournament fish. That motor perfect for kayaks. At 9lbs it just amazing and can't wait. Especially having a 2nd bixpy battery. Awsome!! 🙏 😎
That could be the game changer that gets me back on the water. This would go great on my K2F Triton. Thanks for the review.
I plan to install this on a BKC FK184 9-foot Solo Sit on Top Angler Fishing Kayak. Great video!
Cool bit of kit mate. Fair point about having a second mobility option. I do carry a spare GT drive in my Outback for longer sessions but he Bixby would help to get from spot to spot more efficiently. Cheers Byron.
Was super excited to watch the review, did not disappoint. Would love to mount on my L4 Expedition SUP, for fishing 🎣.
Brandon! Thank you for reviewing. I have been looking at these but no one has a good review like what you just did. I would be putting this on my 2020 Hobie outback. If I won, I would even pay shipping. 😂🤣😂
What an awesome set up! Need it on my PA14
Loved the review!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mate, your vids are to the point and always spot on. Would put this on a PA12 , but keen to see how it would go with my 1 up Old Town canoe 😉 Giddy up.
Great vid. Would mount it on my PA14 for sure.
Great video mate
Always look forward to your video my 2monks yak is screaming for some power to get me to where the fish are .as I am ageing it's not very quick .keep up your good work
My partner would love this! He keeps talking about needed something just like this!!
AWesome!!!!
Got my J2 last year and all your points are right on. One additional point…..when I load my PA12, I remove the motor, but the mounting piece that remains on the back handle sticks out and into your gut when you picking up. No way around it. Still love the unit. I use it just like you said……point A to point B…..then pedal around. Great video. Thanks.
Nice Roger!
Great review. I've been planning on putting one on my Perception Outlaw, but thinking about waiting till I upgrade my kayak
Good choice!
What a great thing, it would go well on my 2019 outback. Since having cancer I find it a bit hard to peddle as far.
Great channel Byron
Love this channel. It would go on my Outback. Thanks for the opportunity.
You're in!
Awesome content as per normal. I'd put it on an outback for sure. Long distance run with a little help sounds great 👍
Top review! Would love to use this on my Viking Profish GT. Really handy for those longer trips offshore.
My pleasure David
I'll use it on my SUP board, so I am really looking forward to your SUP video in few weeks.
Cheers Eric
Cool review could use a little extra help on my 2017 outback I am a bit of a lazy fisho on the yak keep up the good work awesome channel 👍
SLH are the 💣. Get most of not all my accessories from them. I’d be slapping this bad boy to my 2019 Hobie outback. Using the same mount you have still allowing use of my mirage drive once I get to me spot. That setup looks like the way to go 🎉🎉🎉 great vid vid once again 👌👏
Good review as usual. Nice to see they have a range of mounts for various craft :-)
Thanks! 👍
Quality as always. I would certainly put one on my Hobie compass to help get out past the heads.
I have one on my 2019 Outback and have done 8 miles at 40-50% speed and still had more than 30% battery life. Just built an adapter to use on my new 2022 Compass and waiting for weather to break so I can test it.
Love the light weight and easy use of the Bixpy. I would really love one for my Nucanoe Flint.
Good luck!
Another great review video 👍. Currently deciding on a colour for a 2022 Outback.. ivory dune like yours or seagrass. The motor went well! Thanks again :)
Good luck!
Thanks for the review I wonder if this motor was any good, make me want to get a kayak and get this motor.
Would love this on my pa14 . With a knee missing an acl this would help a lot giving my knee a rest when needed 👌 appreciate you putting this up
Happy to help!
Great looking unit, and a fantastic alternative to the cheap electrics and batteries currently on offer from other companies. Would be fantastic on my K2F nextgen 3.
Thanks for the great review mate. No idea if this can be fitted to my small fishing yak but would be awesome to be able to get to more spots in one session
Awesome Mick, entered
Very thorough review on a great unit. If I was able to win this gem I would mount it on my Tarpon 120 to give my arms a break!
This would be the best thing to receive as i am a young Keen Fisho I paddle around all day and end up pretty tired, it would be a great little mod to my dragon 2.7m kayak to get around the creeks and flats, and also I love your videos 😉
Entered mate
Awesome unit - peace of mind and some power to cruise for a bit longer than the legs alone. No kayak right now myself, so don't need to enter, but enjoyed the video and will look at one of these once I get my next yak set up.
Thanks legend!!!!
Hey Byron once again another great video love this motor I reckon it'd be very fun racing around my local estuary getting to my fishing spots on that. If I won I would put it on my fishyak viper which I got at slh last year. At the moment I have a watersnake which I find great but I wouldn't mind a faster motor.
Great review. I would love to put that on my Compass duo to help reach more ground within the Hawkesbury river
Entered!!!!
I'd love to have this thing on my Hobie PA14. Help get off the water quicker when the back pain kicks in
Great little unit.i would dare say i would mount it in a pushing position as well just for that breakaway folding action if i acciddntly ran over something.Great choice Byron.
Ive been looking at powered options for my hobie outback.
Unfortunately dont have facebook either
your reviews helped us make a decision to buy a new Outback and also a Passport Hobie Kayaks, spoken to SLH in Mornington who also recommends your site.
Awesome to hear Peter, makes me happy mate
Nice indeed. Would be very handy to use when chasing snapper around Cockburn Sound in Perth WA. I love my hobie 2021 outback
Would love to throw one on my PA14 to help me cover more ground and explore new areas... great video and review as always!!!
Awesome video and review mate. Looks like a great product. Liked and subscribed 🤞, otherwise I know what I'm spending my tax money on 😉
I'll be putting the motor on my Hobie PA12 🤙
Good choice!
Hey Byron,
I fkn love your videos, keep them up man I was thinking about buying a small water snake for my “Kayak 2 fish next gen 11 although pumping through the wind paddling and trying to get into spots Quiet is fun but i really want to change things up and go for a more professional approach to fishing, trying to get into some torments and this would REALLY help
Thanks keep the great vids up 👍 😃
Wow this would be a game changer, be perfect for getting around lake mac in my pa12.
That would be an awesome addition to my ProAngler 12 360.
It's good on the PA
Another great review 👍 PA14 install
Follow up on my 2022 Compass install. The unit works great, slightly faster speed since the Compass weighs less. Unfortunately the Hobie power pole mount adapter is back ordered with no ETA so you will have to fabricate a mounting system. I used aluminum bar stock utilizing the Hobie inserts and the Bixpy mount that I had for my 2019 Outback.
Great video. I am considering a Bixpy on a Old Town Topwater PDL mounted on the stern.
That's a great idea!
Great review Byron. It was interesting to look at others who have reviewed the Bixby J2 and compare the differences. The common benefit however seems to be the significant reduction in fatigue at the end of long fishing sessions (like I get at my local freshwater dam or down the south coast). I love the fitness aspect of using my Hobie Outback but what I will say that as I approach 50 my knees feel the fatigue of a long session.
I would love to win the Bixby J2 to have on my 2015 Hobie Outback. It would be super valuable in getting me to and from my favourite locations whilst still allowing me to utilise the mirage drive for approaching my spots and doing my drifts. It would require a different installation to accommodate the twist and stow rudder, however I know Bixby have numerous kits to allow for many different applications. By the way, I wish Canberra had a Hobie specialist like the guys at SLH. The local retail experts are unfortunately far less experienced than the guys at SLH.
Yeah Dave, the guys at SLH know there stuff when it comes to Bixby. I'm glad you enjoyed the review dude and thanks for commenting and sharing buddy.
Would be a perfect fit on my Viking profish reload ❤️
A Bixpy installed on My Compass would have made battling into both wind and current for two hours this afternoon a little more pleasurable that’s for sure!
Would love to give that bixpy a shot at offshore fishing, I'd be putting it on my Hobie outback 2021 aswell that I also bought from SLH haha
Ive been trying to find a good kayak motor so super helpful vid, Would love to put it on a Hobie PA 14 360
I would deffs love this on my pa14, id rig it like your outback too! SLH are awesome too, very great customer service.
You're in!
Loving the reviews mate. Would definitely help push the pa14 along 😁
Good choice!
Awesome stuff kit looks cracka, plans on getting a hobie pa14 this would be cool to try offshore
Entered
Hey Byron , terrific review on the Bixby . I would loved to installed this unit on my 2021 Hobie Lynx which will make this boat more nibble and lots of fun . I totally agree on your comment that it a great asset to those longer days fishing and the ease of returning to your launch site . It would great if Bixby could connect to a GPS unit allowing spot fishing or return to the launch area .
I think it would be good also, its only a go forward or reverse though, so would struggle turning itself
One of the bigger things ive been thinking about investing in for my PA14 360. It would be nice for the price that you would get a spot lock function, thats my only critique. I'd definitly like one regardless, it would make those long trips between spots a breeze.
Great review 👌. Would put one of these on my Jackson kraken due to it being more of an offshore yak, the peace of mind not having to burn myself out getting back in 😁. Would be interesting to see how it goes on a yak being more sleek and less surface area on water 👌
Other good point is the motor is 32 lb so it's still under the power limit for Victoria with regard to recreational watercraft licence exemption 👍🏻👍🏻👌
This motor looks epic! Would love to put one on my PA14 for longer sessions and going that extra Mile to fish untouched areas
Agree!!!
What an awesome little motor, would be putting on my 2019 outback, would be awesome as I am often fishing solo on the bay and having the price of mind I have an extra bit of power would be awesome 🤩
You're in!
I was really contemplating buying a bixpy or torqeedo for my 2016 PA14 but I couldn’t see myself wanting to invest more in it, over the years I’ve been leaning towards making the switch to an outback. And finally in about two weeks I’ll have my 2022 Outback and I would love to start my new adventure with an awesome unit like the Bixpy. It’s time to say goodbye to my PA
I bought my 2022 Hobie Outback In Camo last friday, I have taken it out everyday this past weekend and i'm sooo glad, the load and launch time difference from this to my PA is fantastic I couldn't be happier or more excited for this upcoming year for fishing!
Awesome video as usual. Has anyone figured out a mounting strategy that allows the use of both a power pole and the bixpy simultaneously? I fish shallow water almost exclusively and use my power pole all day.
Hey mate another great video... can I ask what costa sunglasses you had on in this video?
I have no idea. Green mirror???
Would love to see how well this would propel my hobi lynx around. Great vids.
I think it would be fast!
This bad boy on my PA 14 is exactly what I need. GL all.
BTH, having never fished out of a kayak the Bixpy will make me consider a kayak or maybe a SUP(looking forward to the review with the SUP). do u still need to have a paddle or the direct drive even with the Bixpy, is that right. mate can the Bixpy steer the craft using only the unit or u have to have the rudder. wat option in ur opinion wud be more efficient. BTH i know u have done reviews on kayaks in the past but for me wat wud u suggest using the Bixpy. my only target for the kayak will be chasing big flathead across the flats using soft swimbaits n glidebaits.
I love the idea of the bixpy for safety and extended range. I would put this on my Viking Reload. :)
Nice AL
Changed my mind, I’d put this awesome unit on my Hobie Adventure Island
hahahaha
Nice video. Good luck to all.
Great vid Byron. This would be a game changer for time poor people. I find I never quite get to where I want to fish on the Parra due to poor access options for kayaks. You spend most of your time fighting current and wind. Not sure you can improve the Compas but this would be a great addition to get you from A to B.
would it get in the way of the compass loader? or i must consider other mount options
Great review, currently I would throw it on my next gen 11, but hopefully later in the year that will be an Outback. I was curious about how noisy it would be, good that it isn't noisy enough to be uncomfortable on the water all day.
Right on!
I’d love to put it on an outback if I can ever afford one. Fatigue after a long day fishing is where you make mistakes, if it’s reducing that then it’s really a safety device.
Nice! entered
I need one of these on my pa14 360. It's going to get a bit heavy with a solix 15, mega 360, livescope on a garmin 8416 and powerpole all bolted on
Would love to give this a go on my 2monks 1.5p kayak 🎣🎣
Would absolutely love to put this on the back of my PA 14 to allow access to those reefs of coffs that take that bit to long to peddle to!
I’d be putting this on my nifty kayak. Cheers
Nice
