For whatever reason I didn't have it this day, sorry for not being the best video I can make. Thank you
Aliex Folgueira still awesome though🤘🏻👽🤘🏻
Aliex Folgueira how tall is the kayak? I can’t find anywhere that says it. The reason I’m asking is I have a cover on my truck and just wondering if the kayak fit with the cover on. I figured you be the guy to tell me. Thanks! Just subscribed.
Bloody great video, mate. Showed how stable this beast is. Thanks for filming.
I love your point at the end about spending your money on things that keep you alive. That relates to my main reason for getting a pedal drive kayak to fish in. It's good exersise! Thanks for the video.
Thanks always for everything that you do. Some of us kayak anglers are in limbo about what kayak to choose. Your content is a big help in showing us what would otherwise be unknown. After watching your experience with the 108 I’m feeling a lot more confident about pursuing this kayak. Look forward to watching you test more kayak innovations as they come along.
My pleasure, I love doing this, I wish more companies would jump on board 😊😀 I really like this big fish 😀😀
Aliex Folgueira my only con about the 108 would have to be the tension knob that locks the drive in place. I noticed at ICAST the knob was labeled prototype but I guess they decided to go with it. Would’ve been nice to have a quick release latch. Suppose you can’t have it all in that price range. 😂
Thanks for the inspiration Aliex! I agree, a real kayak guy needs different ones for different waters.....and thanks for adding.... Stop spending money on stuff that kills you and spend it on stuff that keeps you alive! Another great flipping video!
Wow Nick, thank you for the excellent comment 😀 it is really nice to see comments like yours
Always entertaining video when you are testing the yaks. I loved the outro, great suggestions you made there for sure. Keep them coming.
Great video Alex,I think your test want very well,You always give and show the information we need to make decisions about the kayaks and equipment we may be interested in,Keep up the good work.
Thank you brother, I appreciate all your awesome comments
@@AliexFolgueira it v by
Love your honest comments and videos!
Fantastic content as usual it definitely does not get any better than what you do for all of us
My pleasure 😀
Again that video was better than you think . I REALLY like that yak. !!!
Great video! As usual. I just bought a 2018 Hobie Compass but it didnt have a seat. Was wondering if you knew of another seat nore comfortable than the hobie passport seat that would fit in the compass. That might be cheaper too. Thanks man. Keep up the good work
Great video Aliex !
Great boat too!
Definitely one I’m going to consider when I pull the trigger to buy one . I like the part where you say a guy could have multiple boats. Thanks !
Thanks bro it is a nice boat
I just took mine out for the first time this morning. I'm really happy with the stability of it, so nice.
@@desert8285 happy to hear that
Great video, you have done a great service again!
Tony!! Love to reas your comments bro, thanks
So I currently have a catch 120 and really want a pedal drive with reverse. I fish rivers and small lakes so tracking the bank is important. In your opinion what is a solid choice?
Sold sold sold thank you for that one 👍
Great buy 😀
Love this review.
Some Day Travel thank you 😀
I would like to see it take on a wave when the boat is in an angle coming into shore like you did with the new Hobie Outback test. That video really was enlightening and informative.
Thanks buddy check it out here, it took tons of waves sideways.. ruclips.net/video/5so3LdXHH7U/видео.html
Please would you do the same test with the Bigfish 103 kayak. Thank you
I don't think of anybody else to top and prove the stability of this yak when you took this beast on the surf...
I think I want a big fish 108.
I was into Titans and the feel free kayak. But now I like the muscle kayak 108.
Aliex thanks for introducing 108 to me I am buying my 1st kayak pretty soon and I happy to know all the options I have from your videos.
What did you get?
Big fish 108 or Nucanoe Unlimited , which is more stable? Thanks.
Great vid brother. That kayak looks un flippable and indestructible.
It is a tank! In a good way, how is the bite bro? I wanna hit chicken key tomorrow not sure if it is worth it, gotta check the weather
@@AliexFolgueira Havnt gone out on the kayak in a week and a half...headed to the bridge in long key instead. Snappers and Nurse sharks like crazy. Saw your stories clip with Ricky , that guys a Dania legend and bridge permit beast. Wish i could head out there with you man , but work is in the way. Lol. Goodluck out there bro.
How easy does it paddle I want the most stable kayak but I love to paddle also more exercise .
How far dose the pedal pertrude under the Yack and what’s the height of the yack
Just bought this kayak.... unfortunately fedex destroyed it in shipping and now I prolly wont get to get on the water for another 3 weeks I went with the big fish 108 becuase of your content. Thank you!!!
This is so sad ☹️😥😥 I hope you get the replacement soon
Where did you order from?
@@AliexFolgueira Eco Fishing Shop. It shipped via fed ex frieght. Have you heard of big fish tweeking the pedal drive to resolve some minor issues? Eco Fishing shop told me this and the newer ones dont show up till mid March
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Might want to look out at Aliex kayaks are fighting back there getting harder to flip over LOL
Hahahaha
Alright you convinced me to get this kayak lol.
Awesome!
Crazy stable!
Corryyyyy!!! You have 1000 more videos to go 😁
How would you compare that kayak to the 12.5 dorado? Drive, stability and comfort? I know they are the same company but looking for a comparison.
Well, the Dorado is bigger and a bit faster, way more comfortable seat, not much more weight, 10# more and $700 more, also love the wheel, my take is that if you don't care for the motorized option I'll save the money and buy the big fish 108. I should compare them
Thanks for the reply.
Great demo Aliex, I really hope they are planning on making the big fish 120 pedal drive.
That would be a great addition
Me too!
Loved the video Aliex! Wondering what your thoughts are between this one vs the Jackson Big Rig as far as stability. Not too concerned with speed, just want to ride comfortable and safe. Big guy (6’3” 310lbs) so I think I’m between these two.
Ummmm the big rig fb will have more space for sure but I don’t think it will be as stable the big fish channels makes super ultra stable also a lot less money
@@AliexFolgueira thank you.
When that rudder cable snaps, immediately grab those two little black spagetti tubings that the cables feed through. If it slips through the hole, you have a real mess and have to take the side panel off. You will need a stiff piece of wire to fish it through. Took me some time and when I got done, left and right were reversed.
I heard some boats had issues, there is no hatch so replacing those cables will be a hard job for sure, thanks for the tip
Hey Aliex ! I’m between the Native Slayer 12.5 max and the big fish 108.
Would you say there is a quality difference or any limiting factors that would make choose the Slayer over big fish!?
Thanks man, great videos all the time.
I'm in the same boat. Throw the dorado on sale at $2250 and we've got some tough decisions. Any thoughts Alex? Thanks for the great videos!
What did yall get? I'm looking at the 108
In the video you said it was more stable than the Titan. Which Titan were you referring to or all of them? Meaning the 10.5, 12, or 13.5? Was thinking about the Titan but if this one is more stable then I don’t know. I currently have the old Town Sportsman 106 powered by minn Kota and I love it, but I do want one a little more stable that has a peddle drive and that I can motorize later.
jpoutdoors23 all of them I should motorized this one it would be easy using the drive well
How do thing it will hold up on a river with waves form boats passing by?
Will take it as a champ, check this out ruclips.net/video/5so3LdXHH7U/видео.html
"Mom, there's a drunk man trying to flip his kayak on the water..."
"Oh that's just Mr Folgueira doing his RUclips videos again..."
😂😆👍👍👍
Lol hahaha this is so funny, thanks for the comment. I think I was half asleep... Don't drink much 🤔🤔 what happens if you have a few drinks and then flip a kayak???? That video would go viral hahaha probably won't ever happen... Safety first
@@AliexFolgueira
😁👍👍👍👍
I want to buy it . Get Starboard at the bow have a need for an anchor wizard. What is your aera?
Miami
So I'm looking at 3 different kayaks. The big fish 120, the frontier 12 and the pelican catch 120. I do alot of catfishing so my main concern is stability. Which do you recommend? Because when and if I bring in a big ol catfish I don't want it taking me in the water.
If you want stability, big fish is far more stable than the frontier or the catch
@@AliexFolgueira what's the most stable kayak you ever been in?
I have never been in a kayak until a few days ago and I was in a vibe yellow fin 120 and it felt tippy but I'm 51 year old angler and I'm in the process of getting the big fish 108 basically because of your videos buts what's the stability compared to the vibe 120
thanks big fish is super stable way more than most
@@AliexFolgueira Thank you 👍
Hey listen I do a lot of backpack Hammock camping 🏕, and most times I have to take a canoe down river to my campsite will this boat 🚣 be good for the river????
if the river is too small and shallow, Nop it is not super maneuverable
Does the big fish come in a 12 foot model as well and do you know the price?
A non pedal 120 big fish
If it had a Hobie/flipper style drive if would be near perfect for me. Great vid! 👍
Or some kind of system where it allows the prop to go up a bit and still work
Aliex Folgueira once a company can figure out how to make a bicycle style prop drive work fully tucked up under the boat, THAT will be a game changer. I don’t think it’s too far away either.
@@dp4auburn If there were a drive shaft to an "outboard" prop you could raise up. Then, there could be a tiller and you'd have steering! Hmmm
@@dp4auburn Jackson seems to be the closest
How is the slayer max stability compare to this. I noe the big fish is probably better but if the big fish is a 10. What would the slayer max be to it?
not better but both are super stable
Dang thing looks like a tank on the water. How well does it track?
check the water demo, it does well ruclips.net/video/0HfSP4IPsDw/видео.html
Can you add one more person on the big fish 108
Is there a paddle holder on this kayak?
There is sort of one, not really
Say bro what is the best paddle you would recommend for this boat. I like to drive system but is seems to stick down too far in the water.
Anything over 250cm amzn.to/2wjqRBa
@@AliexFolgueira How deep can you run the drive before it starts swallowing out and hitting the bottom. I a used to big fishing boats lol. I am trying to find a Kayak to get in the water quicker.
@@johnnybobby862 12 in
@@AliexFolgueira Thanks bro. My Mako 19 CPX bay boat drafts 8 to12 inches lol.
@@johnnybobby862 ohh yeah, and you can push pole too
How does it compare stability against the feelfree Dorado?
ummmmm hard to say really, both as super stable, kinda the same hull style etc
In your opinion, which is more stable, the big fish 108 or Jonny bass 100?
Big fish 108 for sure
Aliex Folgueira - is the big fish 120 as stable as the 108?
Please make a video for keel protection, diy!
Hopefully soon
Aliex- haven’t put it in the water yet- but I just got my BF108!
Did you rig it up already?? Look impressive ahh?? Hope you have a great time with it
Aliex Folgueira I put a pad in the floor to soften the noise... that’s all I’m going to do for now..
Aliex Folgueira and it is HEAVY! My wheels you had suggested to me are on the way- hopefully soon be here
Aliex always funny " you pretty much have to fall out of the kayak!"
these things are so stable...most likely you will fall off instead of lipping
What is the shortest fishing kayak with the most stability and capacity weight?
That I could think of? This one
Aliex Folgueira im looking for one with no foot paddle I prefer hand paddle. Please and thank you. Also keep in mind the height i wana put it the back of my suv with the seats folded down. I subscribed to you nice channel sir i have a fishing one myself. I’ll shot you out if i buy your recommendation. Thank you. I was looking at the 120 an 105 ?
Stable kayak but not an offshore kayak. Front hatch collects water from splash and the hole for the transducer mount. Very difficult to paddle if your drive goes out and it's extremely heavy. I owned it and went back to Hobie.
It is a bass boat
What rod and reel combo was that ?
I think it is the spin fisher vi (affiliate) amzn.to/3tHZfxg with a penn battalion I’ll get you a link for that
2021 version of the rod (affiliate) amzn.to/2RcVsLo
Super stabe. How many inches wide??

Looking to purchase another kayak. Would you say it's more stable then a Hobie PA?
Definitely more stable than the pa12 or 14

All I need is a rubber ducky and shampoo cus that thing looks like a tub 🤣
Lollll
That thing is a tank. But how fast is it? I bet you could do a dance in that thing.
check out the water demo video...I’ll link it here but also check out the epic surf video ruclips.net/video/0HfSP4IPsDw/видео.html
Can you give me the highest height measurement of the 108?
I messaged a company that sells them and they told me it was 21” throughout most of it.
Compare 108 vs 120 PDL
Comparing this to 120? Which is stable in the ocean?
if ocean fishing i would get the 120 sportsman pdl, see the topwater version fight a big tuna offshore ruclips.net/video/09CBGB0_WbA/видео.html
@@AliexFolgueira Thanks Aliex!
Thanks for posting Alex. I'm between this and the Slayer...
The slayer offers more, a more expensive boat, a better comparison would be slayer vs dorado
How tall are you and weight?
5.11 200#
If you were going to buy either the Big Fish 108, Catch Pwr 100, or Johnny Bass 100. Which boat would you buy?
🤔 Depends, probably the 108 because it is a pedal yak that I can motorized if I want.
I’m
Your 9th like
Amazing! Thank you I love likes
I wouldn't want to flip that kayak looks very difficult to get back onto,it sits up very high
There is always an easy way
Given how high that sticks out of the water, I'm not sure it would be good in a wind
You got the drive brother that changes everything
Pretty sure I'd still have to fight the wind to keep from getting blown across a lake... the drive just makes it easier.
Wish I had a local dealer to take one for a test ride. I need a shorter yak for convenience, but still able to handle a big guy standing up.
Wide beam.
38
In curious what the weight of the boat is without the drive and seat just bare boat, trying see if roof mounting is an option, with the thule hullavator pro
Just the bare boat is 115# add the drive 128ish
@@AliexFolgueira oh waw thats heavy for such a small boat!
@@7chrisma it is huge bro! But surprisingly easy to manage with the right cart. Also having a truck helps
@@AliexFolgueira can't believe its almost as heavy as the much bigger dorado
Texas coast. You would not get pass the 3rd sandbar before getting flipped .
so no one passes the 3rd sandbar in tx?
@@AliexFolgueira not in a yak that slow and heavy bro. I am sure on low 1ft to 1.5ft waves, but its design would work against you in 3ft waves which is the normal size. As you go down the backside of a wave the nose will push into the next wave and flip.
@@brentnanita3939 watch ruclips.net/video/5so3LdXHH7U/видео.html
Geez, you'll fall out of it before you flip it
That thing doesn’t look maneuverable at all lol.
Wrong, it turns pretty well
First ☺
Jayyyyyy you are still here wow, thank you
@@AliexFolgueira a fan for life my friend
Dramatic.
Ami en lo personal no me gusto nada yo la conpre es demaciado pesada y no a bansa con los pedales no es como la asen ver en este video no se las recomindo para nada
Por que dices mentiras ? Es muy pesado?? No Viste lo que pesa antes comprarlo??? Que quieres decir con "no es como lo hacen ver en este video" ah? Yo no digo mentiras como tu! Yo enseño en mis videos lo que es!
Fish don’t care about noise lol palm to face, no wonder no one watch your fishing video.
I bet I catch way way more fish than you in way less time, if fish care about noise so much why are people on boats always catching fish???? If you are targeting a school of Reds in very shallow waters that is something else. Funny thing is fish actually follow the sound of motors..... Man all of you expert comenntators thinking you are better than the people making the videos sooo stupid for real...ohh look at me I'm so much better that you.. Bla bla bla effing prove it!
