On The Drop Fishing

A great day on the water catching cod and wrasse on the lures and light gear - Plus initial review of the Galaxy Wildcat and Galaxy Kayaks discount code!
I headed up to Beadnell to test out the new kayak and hopefully pull a few fish over the side. I wasn't disappointed with the kayak or the fishing! Drifting the rough ground just off the point and into the bay saw loads of chunky cod and wrasse to the kayak with weedless shads doing the damage as usual.
Setup-
Penn Spinfisher VI HS 2500 Fixed Spool Reel
Spiderwire Stealth Smooth x 8 Braid 0.13mm/28lb MAX BREAK (about 18lb test)

I noticed a couple of newbies posting, and a couple thinking about a yak, I don't know what you do for a living, I only get weekends off, I'm sure you will agree, the day you're off the weather isn't right, or the weather is fine but the sea state stops you launching, I love getting out on the yak, but if you're time is limited your kayak fishing will be even more limited due to weather.

Thanks mate I’m glad you enjoyed it. I have all three, I think they’re all great but for me it would be a toss up between the Sturgeon and the Wildcat…maybe just maybe the wildcat edges it? If you do decide to pull the trigger the channel discount will save you a few quid. OTD5 - Tight lines 👍🎣

Hi mate, I haven’t actually done a beginners guide maybe I should! I suppose budget plays a big role in kayak choice, I have a Galaxy Sturgeon FX and I have a lend of a Galaxy wildcat at the moment. If you’re thinking of buying new the channel discount code OTD5 would save you a few quid if you went down the Galaxy route. There are often full set ups used on marketplace as an alternative where you will sometimes get everything you need in one go. Whatever you get should be more than 12 foot long and don’t forget to budget for your safety equipment. Hope that helps 👍🎣

Hi Alan mate, it’s actually pretty easy as it’s the lightest kayak I’ve got here. I just slide it up two drainpipes onto the roof or I just put the bow on slide it up and turn over once it’s up there. It’s in a vid somewhere but I can’t remember which of the 60 or so it is 🤣.

hello, just a few questions if you don't mind answering, what is that took box you have on the rails? and was you ever able to stop that squeaking on the wildcat? also trying to decide on either wildcat or the explora i'm just planning on doing coastal fishing, the explora is compact and has a hatch in front of the seat which i like the idea of, but the wildcat seems better in all other aspects , the sturgeon and the supernova are just to big for me.
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing 11 месяцев назад
Hey mate, it’s just a cheap toolbox from BnM attached to the rail via a railblaza star mount. The squeak took care of itself, it was gone after the second trip. Just needed wearing in as it were. I would personally chose the wildcat over the explorer for the sea but don’t write off the sturgeon either, it’s only about 6 inches longer and 2 kilo heavier (rough estimate). Hope that helps 👍🎣

@@onthedropfishing oh that's cool that your able to just make it attach like that, i would love the sturgeon but the extra length( about 2 foot longer then the wildcat) according to the specs means i'm going to struggle to find somewhere to store it. glad the squeaking stopped that was going to be a huge negative for me if it didn't. thank you for answering my questions and it has been very helpful.

Hi great video as usual. I see in most of your videos you sit sideways to fish. Is it that stable or is it your sense of balance. I bought a Cambridge Marlin which is supposed to be a fishing kayak. I went for a practice on a lake and all seemed good. The next week i went on my local river which was very calm no ripple or wind. I went a couple of miles and took my pike rod a small box of lures and a back pack with my drink and phone in a waterproof pouch. I just slightly turned to put the backpack behind me and it just went straight over dumping me and everything in the water. I grabbed everything and swam to the opposite bank. Flipped it back over and put everything back in. After I composed myself. I stepped in and sat down from the bank and it went straight over again. I lost my rod and reel this time. I don't think it is as stable as they made out . I think if i hooked a decent pike it may tip me over leaning anyway to a side to get it out. I am sending it back. It is not stable at all they said you could stand in it I think not. So what i am asking is, The wildcat is it very stable you make it look very stable with your legs over the side so I am looking to get the wildcat but lost a bit of confidence with my first choice of kayak. I look forward to your opinion on the stability of the wildcat cheers Tim
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing Год назад
Hi mate, yeah the wildcat is a very stable kayak indeed but as with anything you do play a part in that also. Your head should never go outside of the kayak, try and keep it central and move at the hips when riding waves etc, as I say though though I find it great out on the water. Hope you get sorted soon mate and can get out there and enjoy your fishing 👍🎣

I try to avoid that full stop to be fair! 🤣. I’m slightly obsessive with the weather so I try to make sure I’ve got a good long window before any big changes in the conditions. If there’s a chance of the sea coming away at 3:00pm say I’ll try to be off the water a few hours before. I have been tipped in the surf, it happens. As long as everything is strapped down and what needs to be waterproofed is waterproof it’s fine. Only happened to me once in four years mind touch wood 🤞 🎣

Hi there can you tell me wot drysuit you are using please and this kayak is the one for me
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing Месяц назад
Hi Robert, the Drysuit is the Typhoon PS330 Extreme and as you probably know this is the wildcat kayak. I really like this, I still have one here. The only reason I’m not using it at the moment is because I’ve done my hamstring in so am on the Sturgeon with the motor! 👍🎣

I would say it’s a dead heat, which I know doesn’t help you! Gun at my head I’d keep my Sturgeon if I had to choose one 👍🎣

Hey Bud, Wildcat vs Supernova? Do you have a preference?
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing 4 месяца назад
Hi mate, if weight is an issue for you I’d say the wildcat but if not I like them both. The supernova is a bit bigger than the wildcat but as I say the wildcat is a lot easier to transport so it’s six and two threes really. Hope that helps! 👍🎣

`Hi mate whats the fishfinder mount you use and the camera mount
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing Год назад
They’re both Railblaza mate, the “swing arm” mount goes into a star port on the rail and the “camera boom” goes into a star port near the bow 👍🎣

Looks good but too wide for anyone using a Hullavator I think.

From the Camera angle, the Wildcat seems a bit more "tippy" than your other Yaks, Chris. When you do your usual 'legs over the side' it seems to go a lot lower on the side you're using. Like I say, it might be the Camera angle, but something perhaps worth looking at, mate.
@onthedropfishing
@onthedropfishing Год назад
Must be the camera angle as it’s a lot more stable than the Sturgeon, it’s about 15cm wider as well. The camera is also further away so it’ll exaggerate the movement 👍🎣
