  • Today I would like to show you my new fishing Kayak, the Native Watercraft Titan 10.5 Propel. This is a great kayak for fishing and a very comfortable kayak for a long day on the water. This video is a comprehensive walk through and on the water review.
    I got this kayak from Stan’s Bait Shop in Milford, IA. Here is a link to their Facebook page / stansbaitandtackle . They have great customer service and can help assist you in picking the right kayak.

    Very functional, beamy, stable design. I’d love to fish from a kayak. It provides you a very stable fishing platform and a hands free propulsion drive. I imagine you can get into some areas that even an aluminum bass boat would fear to tread. And your maintenance issues are virtually nonexistent as compared with a boat.
    The weight of the kayak can be a good thing (it is built sturdy) or an issue but not as bad as Lewis and Clark who would portage, the carrying of boats or goods overland from one body of water to another or around an obstacle (such as a rapids). I have seen wheels on the aft end to limit your portage woes.
    I was thinking, as a kayaker who uses a cellphone to take pictures onboard you might want to incorporate in a regular video a brief description of the cellphone harness you use to prevent you from losing it overboard. Very good walk through - Ron

    Cool video man, I really enjoyed it! I recently bought (2022 model) a Slayer MAX 10 in gray and LOVE IT! I was really torn between the MAX 10 and the TITAN but went for maximum portability.
    Keep up the great work!

    Love mine but hated the rudder system at first. Finally realized that the steering handle assembly is coming from the factory wrong. Both my Titan and my Slayer came with this assembly in the wrong position and I was changing cables every week on my busy lake.
    If your handle is in line with the frame of the Yak when your rudder is centered, you will break a lot of cables on windy days with plenty of chop.
    If you separate the two pieces at the steering handle and turn the set screw so that it is positioned on the left bottom side of the pulley, The set screw won't saw through your cable near as quickly because now most of the stress is on the top of the pulley instead of the set screw.

    • @MidwestBassHunter

      I have never had this problem. I guess I will have to take it apart and figure it out...

    • @HomesteadOnThePreserve
      @HomesteadOnThePreserve 2 года назад +1

      Yeah your right and cool fix you thought of! Native realized the flaws and redesigned the system and the cable in 2021. Since the new system is stronger they were also able to extend the rudder for better tracking and turning radius. No need to upgrade to the Boondox now.

      It paddles ok. I’ve used it without the peddle drive many times. It is a little more work than most kayaks for sure though.

      Yes, my wife and I both have the same model and I fish out of it a bunch. I did buy a bass boat last fall though so it probably will get less playing time.

    How does the kayak paddle? If youre fishing some skinny water gets shallow to often, is the boat a solid paddler also?

    • @MidwestBassHunter
      @MidwestBassHunter  6 лет назад +2

      It's not bad, my 1st yak was a 10 foot pelican, so this is a lot more work to paddle. Sometimes I hook the paddle on the rudder handle which is slightly annoying.

    I'm in a Hobie Outback right now.. a 2014 model..I am thinking about purchasing one of these 10.5 and selling the Hobie. This looks like a great angler kayak. What is your thoughts versus the Hobie Outback?

    • @MidwestBassHunter
      @MidwestBassHunter  4 года назад +3

      Compared to an outback I prefer this for the stability, standability. However this is heavy and not near as good a paddler if you get in heavy vegetation or shallow water where you can’t use your pedal drive. The outback is a good paddler and a lot lighter to tote around but I like to stand a lot when fishing. The storage on this thing is tremendous also, lots of room.

      I have never tried Bo. I think it would be hard to make the corner to get them in there. I would go try to put one in there but I have them put away for the winter in storage. I don't think I would want to put rods in there.
