New Kayak Review! Old Town Sportsman AutoPilot 136!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 июл 2024
- This kayak just won "Best Of Show" At ICAST 2020, let's look at why! When we heard the Sportsman Autopilot 136 had an Ultrex trolling motor and could "spot lock" to hold position so we didn't have to paddle the kayak constantly, we knew we had to have it! Come along as Tim takes it for a spin on the water, looks at the features, and shows how to operate the motor.
This is a top of the line kayak! Its incredibly stable, has room to stand, walk, and enough stability to fish from virtually any position. We've had it out in big waves, heavy winds, and have had the opportunity to catch some great big bass from these boats. If you're upgrading to a larger kayak or considering adding a trolling motor to an existing kayak, you should give this a look.
The 13'6" version (136) retails for $3999 while the smaller 12' version (120) retails for $3799. This is a serious investment for an entry level kayaker but is a no brainer for a bass angler coming down from a bass boat. As bass boat angler's we've already fallen in love with the spot lock feature of the Ultrex trolling motor and know there is no going back. Having this same feature in a kayak gives us the ability to go farther, stay more stable in rough water, and most importantly, focus on the fishing instead of the positioning.
Below you'll find links to the kayak as well as some of our favorite kayak accessories. The kayak link will take you directly to the manufacturer's website (Old Town), while the accessory links will go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of the items.

$4k is a lot... but that motor... WITH SPOT LOCK!!!! That’s technology! It ain’t cheap baby!!! Gotta pay to play! Good video!
I love OldTown and I’ve had an OldTown canoe since 2001 and now I’m 70 years old and this looks like such an extraordinary setup. I’m definitely going to figure how to make this work in my fishing life here in Raleigh North Carolina. There’s so many wonderful lakes,and I am 2 hours from the inner coastal and so glad it works in saltwater 😜🎣👍🎣 thanks Tim as always you help eliminate any confusion in the market place and I’ve trusted Tactical Bassin for over 4 years and I am so happy for your success 🙌💯🎣🍀🎣
Great idea!! Love the Ultrex paired with a kayak! Like you said Tim, game changer is the best way to describe it... and I'm surprised that it's not more expensive than what you said
B.A.S.S. Times just had an article about yak fishing in the OLD TOWN so I checked out their web site and saw this mentioned. I flipped to your video and got a great review from you. Thanks for that and the many more vids you provide for us.
This gives YAK'rs another choice. Good for Kayak fishing in general and the sport overall. Good job Old Town!
Just bought mine!!! Picking it up this weekend. In the orange color scheme as well 🤘🤘🤘
I opted for Nucanoe personally, they were in the bow mounted game before anyone else. All their kayaks also have a flat transom too so you can put a power pole or even an outboard motor on the back. Their open deck design is what sold me though.
Looking foreword to up coming videos with these kayaks!
Love the kayak videos! Bring back more kayak footage!
I strongly agree, more kayak fishing videos would definitely be nice.
I have been really looking into this boat an all the reviews on it.
An this is my next upgrade boat right here.
I'm really happy this technology is working its way into the kayak fisherman market. This is a huge leap forward for being efficient on the water. I've gotten pretty good at anchors and drift socks with a trolley system, but I would prefer to leave that behind. Hobie's fins are pretty good at locking onto a spot manually, but then you cannot stand up and fish, so you are less efficient. This market is progressing nicely and the competition will step up and innovate to be competitive.
Loving the beard brother!!! Thanks for the review!!!
running 2 50ah fpv lithiums is a must. love the yak. love your vids
First time commenting, but you guys rule. Made me fall in love with bass fishing again after many years away. I’ve been stuck bank fishing and just bummed out about it, but I just ordered the autopilot 120 and am SUPER excited to actually be able to go out on the water again. Keep killing it guys!
How is it? I assume you have it now
@@collinstuart3622 had it for a year now and it’s awesome. Totally worth it.
I just ordered the Old Town Autopilot 136 and I think it will be a game changer for me! I do a lot of fishing out of my current kayak and I love it. I really hope to see you guys make some more kayak videos with these kayaks. Maybe you can cover some techniques that you like to try while on kayaks. Maybe you could cover techniques you would use for sit down only kayaks for people that don't have a kayak they can stand on. That was one of the biggest learning curves for me in my kayak. It's not stable enough to stand in and the seat it real close to water level so there are definitely techniques I can't use on it like flipping. Anyway I love seeing the videos where you guys go on and on about every detail in your gear and techniques with links to everything. It would be awesome to see more yak vids though.
Just won one of these today! Can't wait to get it and try it out.
been using mine for a month. You will absolutely love it.
I got the PDL120 version I caught multiple stripe bass trolling with it. Get the pedal version if you’re younger plus it works out 💪 your leg s.
Come launch with me outta the Oaks tomorrow. Would be cool to kayak fish wirh you guys on the home water. That’s awesome. Tight lines. 🇺🇸🎣🤙🏽
These are almost impossible to get so I just made my own. For people complaining about price....this is a boat for people who don't want the expenses of owning a real boat. 10000% worth it.
How do you build this?
@@OkiVibes bonafide ss127 with a motorguide Xi3 Trolling motor
Or even better a native slayer max with a motor guide 👌
I have a minn kotta on my titan kayak. Runs really well. Only down side is if you want to be out longer and solely rely on it you’ll need a big battery. Top speed for me is 3.6. Great alternative for a bass boat.
Thank you sir, I’m sold on the Old Town now.
My old town yak is coming in a couple weeks and it’s a big step up for me. Trying to understand the best ways to utilize everything is a bit daunting. Could you do a video for electronics and gear on the new kayak? Things like: gear mounting and storage, battery size/amp hours, tackle and rod setup, transportation methods, etc. once you have the yaks fully rigged up.
Yep game changer !!! For everything, you get a lot of people who could afford this and have a real fishing rig.
This is a game changer especially for the older folks who do not want to exercise every time they go fishing or for a ride....the answer is buy the 120 PDL AND this one.
Hey @Matt Allen and @Tim Little we've seen vids about fishing structures, lay downs, cover etc. For large mouths but not sure of any vids about fishing rock walls, cliffs bottoms etc. for spots. You guys can come up to Shasta Lake and do a vid about that. Would be very helpful. Thank you
Superb video!!!!!!!!! So, here we are at the start of 2023. In comparison, sir, what kayak would you purchase now based on your extensive experience with the Sportsman Autopilot 136. Things are changing fast. So, presently, what is #1 gamechanger kayak that is surpassing the Old Town accolades 2 years ago?
You’re like a fishing torpedo with that thar machine. In New Jersey ours are coal fired.
I met one of your fans on a small pond in Jersey. Nice Guy, Small world.
King Plumbing 👍🏻🎣🇺🇸. He had some smoking tackle.
Very cool!
I’d love to see you and Alex Rudd fish together on the kayaks!
Took mine out for the 2nd time, yesterday. I love this kayak.
That’s awesome Bob!
Hey Bob, what’s the battery life like for you? I’m always a little weary about the concept of covering water and fighting wind, current and waves all day with spot lock. I guess if it does die at least you can just paddle back lol
I was on the water at 5:45am and pulled up to the ramp at a local lake near Fort Worth at 3:30 that afternoon. Motor was engaged the entire time. I ran at full speed some, regular trolling speed some (working in and out of docks, cover, shoreline, etc), and used spot lock quite a bit to cover Lilly Pad fields and other areas. The wind was out of the south at 6 to 8 mph and the lake runs primarily north to south, so I figure half the time I was going against the wind. I used a 100ah lead acid battery and usually when they start to weaken they do so slowly, so you'll see a drop in performance. I never got to that point. I came back to the ramp on an east to west trajectory, with a lot of boat chop, and I was still hitting 4 mph. I really want to get the lithium battery, because that lead acid battery is heavy and I'm an old guy.
Bob Deeds thanks for the response! Very informative.
Too bad there's so much negativity in these comments. I'm betting that those did say why not just buy a real boat or words to that effect have never tried a kayak. I gave up all my powered boats once I had a kayak for a short period of time. I have an Old Town Predator PDL which is the pedal version of The Predator 13. It is an excellent rough water Open Water boat. I've had it in the ocean with four and five foot swells and I've had it on places like Lake George with the wind ripping from the south stirring Up 3 and 4 ft waves with an occasional one over the bow. Very stable boat very comfortable for this 71 year old fishing fool!
I'd like to see him actually put that thing into the water. How do you transport it: trailer, bed of your pickup? How do you launch it when there is no sweet grassy knoll to launch from? Can you lift it? 'm 71 also and I will not be lifting 158 lbs. of kayak.
@@daveyJ213 David I slide the boat in and out of the back of my truck on a Bed Extender without much trouble and now I'm 72. The biggest thing is getting the bow up on the bar of the Bed Extender or getting it off the bar when unloading. When I move the boat either in or out of the truck it's empty. No drive no rods reels and Tackle. It's just the boat and the seat and a couple items in the bow hatch all told probably 95 lbs. I try to launch right at the water and once it's in the water I move it off to the side of the ramp get all my gear out of the truck park the truck and then load the gear into the kayak. All told my truck is on the boat landing about three or four minutes. I have yet to lose any gear after leaving kayak and gear at the launch parking the truck and walking back. I think most fishermen are honest whether they be kayakers or boaters. You can do it!
I just got one, and it's GREAT, Please come and fish Lake Texoma
Very thankful to have a job that pays me well. So, this is absolutely doable for me now. I’m just stuck between getting a bass boat (I have a wife and 2 kids. They could comfortably join me then) or going with this awesome set up. The other thing, I bought a $399 lifetime yak a year ago during quarantine. That kept my mind sane. That will become the wife’s. She’s going to be so jealous of this bad boy I’ll feel inclined to get two hahahaha As I’m just autopilot back to the dock drinking a cold one and she’s full sweat paddling back
Definitely gonna get this kayak. Have had two boats with Ultrex’s and know how this is going to change the kayak bass fishing world. Been wanting to get into kayak fishing for a while now the time to jump. I think I’ll get the 12 footer though.
You are going to love it
I've been kayak fishing in a $200 10 ft general use kayak on inland lakes for the last few summers and am having a blast with it. I don't see myself spending the money on this but it sure would spoil the shit out of me edit a sit in kayak
Just got a Hobie passport and it is awesome easy to carry and has mirage drive. I am getting on everywhere even places my Jon wouldn't go
How is the mirage drive on those things? I hear they are fast. They look like awesome kayaks as well! I hope you enjoy your and good luck out there!
@@fourwinnsdummy I will actually have a video coming out on my RUclips sometime soon I got a couple more I have to put out that I've done before I put it out but it will be a review and kind of going through it. My regular mirage on my old one was pretty daggone fast but this 180 drive with the turbo fence haul up like crazy
@@BrandonBReelKillerFishn I just subscribed to your channel.
@@fourwinnsdummy bro I really appreciate that . Thank you . I need all the subscribers I can get lol .
@@BrandonBReelKillerFishn you're welcome bud I can never be subscribed to enough fishing and kayaking channels.
Finally!...You notice kayaks? Hooray for Yaks, but it's about time.
We've been kayaking for a few years now 👍 If you search "Tacticalbassin Kayak" you'll find quite a bit of content you might have missed.
@@tacticalbassin been a while.
I don't know if I would ever be home if I got one of these. Ever since learning about them like 3 weeks ago, its practically all I can think of buying...
Same here, I’ve been selling other kayaks and stuff I really don’t need to pay for it.
Amazing, but I love the simplicity of fishing out of a pack canoe with a paddle and no electronics. To each his own.
Awesome video
You guys are awesome! I’ve learned so much from you that I had never thought about in my almost 46 years! But I may be in the minority here when I say fishing has gotten way too high tech.
Thank you Neal! Technology is advancing very quickly.
Fun video excellent review! What’s the thrust on that trolling motor? Thx mate
So the foot control rear rudder just compliments the remote controlled trolling motor ? Pretty cool.
With the Kayak crave these will defiantly sell but as a owner of a bass boat and 4 fishing Kayaks a Jon Boat is so much better especially on a bigger body water where you can use a gas motor. I’ve only found myself using my Kayak once this year.
I got into kayak fishing and got myself a Hobie Pro Angler 14. My regular ride is a Nitro ZV18. At some point, these big kayaks start blurring the lines between a kayak and an actual boat, except the kayak has you tippy toeing around the deck. If you’re going to kayak fish, go with a real kayak. My Hobie handles like a freaking barge, it’s a pain in the ass to load and unload -even with a trailer. I also have a 10 foot Ascent and have way more fun in that and can get to some pretty skinny water. If you’re dropping 4-5 grand, set up a John boat.
Too funny, was just talking to someone about this at the lake last week! What are your thoughts on storage with the kayak and ease of incorporating things like a fish finder? Love the video, keep up the good work!
Game over for other yak companies. Next year Old Town coming out with Yakformers it’s a kayak that turns into a full size boat lol
Damn, this would be sweet on some of our local lakes that are electric only.
Ive been looking for good yak this one is a bit expensive but definitely worth it
Looks promising. Can you pair the Minn Kota trolling motor with a Himminbird Helix 8 SI+ G3?
What will they think of next? Pretty cool where tech is taking us. Thanks guys. Be safe.
Everything is advancing very quickly!
please review the lews hank parker casting rod and abu garcia black max baitcasting reel.
My dad has an older kayak from Old Town. I was wanting to get one the same as his but now I think I want something else.
That is nice but I think I will stick with my Hobie. I like being able to flatten the fins against the hull in shallow water or when fighting a big fish. Also, part of the fun of being out in a kayak is not having to depend on a power source for propulsion. That being said, there have been many times I have craved spot lock while out in my kayak :)
Okay but you can pull the rudder and motor up if need be, it functions as a standard kayak any time you need it. I'm still on the fence between this and a Hobie myself.
@@MegaBEEF89 yes you can do that with all the fishing hobie’s
Really cool, but I'll skip having to deal with a big battery and registration and stick with my pedal drive. That said, one of the women in our kayak fishing club bought one of the first ones. She has some physical disabilities that make paddling and pedaling difficult and this has been great for her.
If U don't have to have "spot lock" the make a 106 model with minkota under $2500. 🤔
@@johnbaker4847 price isn't the issue at all.I don't want to have to register the thing and deal with that hassle, required whether it has spot lock or not. The need for either a heavy lead acid or expensive lithium battery is also a turn-off for me.Finally, there are some places around me where motors, all motors, are prohibited and one of them in particular has fantastic fishing.
@@helotaxi not trying to be a major smart ass but don't put the motor in the water and paddle
001nuttz that kinda totally defeats spending a bunch of money on this kayak, doncha think? Especially when I can use my pedal drive without restriction.
@@helotaxi Sorry, I've got to comment on this - you mention price not being an issue but then you mention "expensive" lithium batteries and "spending a bunch of money" as talking points to your justification for not getting on board with the Autopilot. You mean to tell me, were the Autopilot and your pedal drive the same price, regardless of having to register it and deal with a battery, you'd still just take the pedal drive? I call BS. Just admit the Autopilot is awesome and gives you more options than any other kayak currently on the market. The Autopilot is, as Tim mentioned, a game changer - no denying it. I rock a Jackson Mayfly, paddle only, so no bias here.
Informative video. Maybe in a sequel video, you can make an assessment on the effectiveness on paddling the kayak with the motor out of the water (just in case there is a malfunction to the motor or battery)
You can use the word revolutionary or transformative in place of game changer.
Thanks! Yes that’s a great idea 👍
Two questions, 1) Can you fish a full day on one battery? (I know that's a tough question) 2) Where and what brand of trailer are you using to transport that kayak? Thank You!
@taticalbassin, could you guys do a video based on how to catch bass in abnormally warm and low water. I am unsure how your lakes and stuff are but up here in the New England the water is anywhere between 83 to 86 where I fish. Which is VERY warm for this time of year in some places 10 degrees warmer than normal. And on top of that alot of the water in places I fish is between 6-10 feet lower than normal and that's not including some of the reservoirs I fish. I thought the fish would be ultra aggressive but I have been proven wrong as of late and would like some tips on baits and stuff to use during this time. I've done both power and finesse, cranked deep mussel beds and flipped the heaviest of cover but usually get one or two fish on 8 hours fishing.
Thanks!
Awesome...
Alright so I’m gonna ask for any bodies advice. I go dock light fishing at night during the summer. We can find decent lights where you can see the bass swimming around. I have caught one striper on a crankbait and have had bad luck ever since. Any advice?
He forgot to mention the fact that you can record your tracks.... Push a button and the kayak will take you back to your launch point or marked waypoints.... Sit back and drink a cold one on the way back like it's on autopilot 😉
Tactical Yaking
i know it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to stream newly released movies online?
@Jordan Ahmed i would suggest flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this yak. I'm in the market for a big, stable, engine powered yak to fish in a variety of waters from ponds, to larger lakes in inshore salt water. I noticed that this video is a couple of years old, and I wanted to ask if you have any other yaks that you would consider along side this one? I'm appreciative of any tips. THank you!
What happens if you hit the bottom/log etc .. will the motor break out or just bend the shaft
I am very curious about battery life and what kind of range you can fish. Until you experience what a Solix can do with this trolling motor you just don’t know its capabilities . It takes a very technical fisherman to understand how to fish a fish finder/trolling motor and gps spotlock all your fishing holes. To experience this fully you will have to spend about 7,000.00 by the time you buy fish finder, lithium battery and connect everything. It is definitely limited by cost, but if you don’t have room for a boat, want to avoid boat maintenance, and have the money, this is not a bad idea. You must take into consideration range of battery and whether or not the wiring and trolling motor are water proof enough to avoid rough water. You may have to wait until batteries are good enough to run all day and the saltwater version comes out.
Any info on the trolling motor when hitting a log etc. does it pop up and you have to set it back down with the rope you pull?? Or U just take the hit and move on? That’s my biggest concern
Badass
Add camo to it and make it a dual sport by duck hunting from it.
Can we get a kayak buyers guide this year since some of us will be buying kayaks and others already own them?
So if you’re pointing a certain direction, say towards a bank that you wanna fish, and you hit spot lock, what happens when there’s a side wind etc.? Would you spin in a circle like you would with just 1 power pole?
“Look at this bitc....thing” lmaoooo. Thing is gnarly AF
Great video Tim! Does spot lock require a fish finder to be wired to it?
No sir. The motor has internal gps 👍
Thing is nice .
Wow, Wow, Ow,
I was pretty stoked at first, but wait, there’s no I-Pilot Link available.
So… you can’t use Humminbird network sonar. Price/Point thing?
To me anyway, if I was going to go this way with a yak, I’d want it
with I-Pilot Link and its much better features set.
After all, the list price is about $800. bucks cheaper than a Hobie Mirage Pro Angler 14 360.
Maybe Johnson Outdoors (Old Town, Minn Kota, Humminbird, etc.) will wince when they
start seeing
Lowrance or Garmin heads installed, and offer I-Pilot Link next year.
But I wouldn’t bet on an Upgrade Path being offered.
Just a side note, I’ve been getting about 20-30 percent more run time on my Minn Kota
motors after changing to three blade props. (Top speed is only about .2-.3 mph faster than 2 blade).
Love to see an In-Depth Kayak comparison test someday.. (going after Stripers maybe?)
Glad to see you back on Clear Lake, you guys are the best on RUclips.
Awesome... I want one... lol Any equipment you guys done using and willing to donate?
Stoney Lonsome LOL
Will the 100AH battery keep you going all day?
Still saving for one. Lol 😂
This thing should definitely have a rear seat so I can drag the wife along to help justify the purchase. And when she choses not to go, great!
I just picked up a OT 136 AutoPilot. What length Paddle do you have. I need to order one.
If you're fishing a small creek can you use it without the motor installed.... nevermind you just answered that
Noiceee👌
Does the spot lock keep you facing the same direction, even with a current or blowing wind, or is it allowed to rotate? Thanks!
I really wish they would come out with a 2 seater
Any chance that the PDL drive from other Old Town kayaks would fit in the drive well...interchangeable between the trolling motor and the PDL system?
Not interchangeable
Hey guys I’m looking for a first fishing kayak that will mostly be used for river smallies and muskies with some some lake fishing. I was hoping for some suggestions around $1k thanks.
How shallow can you go in this thing? Rocks?
I'll take your old kayaks lol
Would you feel comfortable in one on the Great Lakes? I mostly want to fish smallmouth close to shore but can still be pretty choppy
I went off shore on Lake Michigan with the bigger one (136) and it did great, the inky problem is that it lets a lot of waves in but the scupper holes work great either way. Also wasn’t a very rough day and I wasn’t that far off shore
Is it possible for that kayak to convert to a pedal drive system
I'd like to see you actually put that thing into the water. How do you transport it: trailer, bed of your pickup? How do you launch it when there is no sweet grassy knoll to launch from? Can you lift it?
Yes to all the above. We've launched them from grassy Knolls, steep drops, docks, boat ramps, and muddy creek banks. They're heavy but not unmanageable.
I need this
Why did they(CA) shut down the lake because of Covid?! Here in NC all lakes/rivers never went on shutdown.
Was I the only one waiting for Tim to dump this thing? Bahahaha! Kidding Tim!
🤣 That day sucked. Totally my fault. I wasn’t paying attention the the wind waves while changing GoPro batteries. The boat wake was the final straw. Over I went....🤦♂️
TacticalBassin we need to go drag that area for your rod/reels!
Sweet Jesus, i might be getting rid of my PA 12, LOL
What’s the runtime on the battery before it’s dead ?
How long does the motor battery last??
Kinda new to this: if I want to test my trolling motor to test the wiring connection does the motor have to be submerged to run properly
No it does not - you can run your trolling motor outside of the water. It's not like an outboard that needs a water intake.
Im trying to buy one!!!
Tim I hope you can answer this question… Do you think a single 12 V deep cycle lithium 100 amp hour LIFEPO4 battery will power this well? Thank you. I am ordering the 136 version this week and want to get my power straightened out before hand
100% it will. That's what we've both powered with the last couple years.
@@tacticalbassin outstanding, thank you. So for the rest of the power needs (93SV and YakPower) I’m thinking a 23AH should do the trick. Say, I hope you guys get to put southern Maine on your east coast trip plan. Fat brown fish up here!
Can this kayak handle strong wind
Does a open faced real or a baitcaster work better for bass fishing. I have a real nice baitcaster but I just dont know how to use it is there any good videos on how to use a baitcaster
Oh yeah plenty of videos out there .
Also can you fit a pedal drive if you wanted to switch up for the day?
I don’t believe the pedal drive is interchangeable. That would be really cool if they make one to fit 👍
