I like that rod holder
The Quick Fists are a great idea. Just ordered some. Thanks for the idea!
Let's meet up for muskie fishing sometimes! We would like to see how it's supposed to be done
Installed a Garmin Striker 4 transducer inside the Hobie Passport transducer hull cavity. Fits great, and completely protects the transducer with a plate that allows water to surround the transducer. The plate (held on with a couple of SST screws) sits flush with the hull bottom. The sonar outgoing signal and return travels through the plate like it isn't there. Furthermore, the transducer (which can now 'live' in the transducer cavity) is able to use its scupper hole (which is below the boat's elevated seat) as an optimal route topside to the Garmin monitor. A transducer outboard arm, which creates quite a bit of drag on a kayak, is no longer required with this new setup.
Tried out this new setup yesterday at a local lake (along with a new Hobie Mirage drive that allows extremely easy shifting from forward to reverse (Mirage 180 drive). Worked great, and the Mirage 180 drive (with easy rudder control) is a total game-changer for kayak flyfishing.

The plate comes with the Hobie kayak. The plate has a couple of extensions designed to accomodate Lowrance fish finder transducers, but it's very easy to adapt it to a Garmin Striker 4 transducer.
Haha. Not sure if I'm the one that does it right, but yes. I'll be in touch! I'll be chasing the other unicorns this weekend and then my musky season will begin.Let's meet up for muskie fishing sometimes! We would like to see how it's supposed to be done

Wishing I was fishing the Sauk
Most raft owners use these!
NRS Spare Oar Keeper
The NRS Spare Oar Keeper is a classic solution for securing an extra oar and giving the rower quick access when it's needed. Using the same iconic, high-strength webbing as the NRS Cam Strap, this Oar Keeper is built to withstand the worst carnage.

I'm looking for something for the Hewescraft. It's a lot easier to climb out if the oars are out of the way.Most raft owners use these!

Don’t need the fancy rings. I also use loop straps for my oar keepers on the oars in my hands. Easiest method to keep them attached when you want them attached and unattended when you don’t.

Floated it.
Tomorrow we make paddles, but today we played.

Thanks! We did two laps of the lake, and picked up trash on the last half of the last lap.
1 pool noodle, 2 tackle boxes (one fully stocked), miscellaneous trash, crawdad trap, and one kayak paddle.
I didn’t have the mental capacity to take photos while wrangling Gilligan and the Skipper.

Thanks.
She looks great! How does she handle? Well done on the trash (and not so trash) collection!
Thanks!
She seemed very quick, but the munchkins kept leaning over the edge and tipping us and were
