Hobie Pro Angler 14 Modifications: Part 2 

methodman247 Thanks methodman

Congrads on your purchase warthog! Glad I could make it a little easier on ya! Hope you used that coupon when you ordered the trailer. Thanks for watching my vids! C'mon!

VentureTube Yes used coupon.Finished trailer build. Ready to go fishing. How often do you check/repack wheel bearings? Interested in what effect water is having on grease. Cleaned hubs and bearings and repacked with marine grade grease as suggested during assembly. Thinking about installing bearing buddy kit.

warthog6660 Bearing buddy would be a great addition. I always add a little grease to the bearings before a long trip, however, I only take the bearings out and clean the races about twice a year. Guess it really depends on how much you haul it. Just go by what it looks like when you disassemble it. Good luck fishing and thanks for watching!

Hey Marty! I have enjoyed your vids and the way edit them. Good stuff! Congrats on your new Hobie . Hope some of my ideas can help you out with yours. We have to do everything poor man style ha! Take care.

+Jordan Voglsinger Thanks for the sub my man!

Kenny DeMent Thank you sir!

Chris Fagin Thanks Chris!

Thanks! 😁

Daniel Cavalier Hi Daniel Thanks for watching my vids! PA's are expensive but you get what you pay for. Great customer service and a stable fishing platform second to none! Plus, they hold their value so when it's time to sell, you'll get a lot of return on your investment. Believe me, you won't regret it! My advice is to look on local kayaking forums and find one used with a lot of accessories. OR, you can always get on craigslist and look through the major cities close to you so you'll have more options. Hope this helps you out. Goodluck!

Ok thx for the response. im eager to get out a on the water.

Vandy Bros. They are available at www.venturetube.net

troutbum61 Thanks trout! You're right, I still have this yak and I've fished in this yak 22 hrs straight before. Bum never hurt at all. It's a great seat.

Well I didn't I have to "relearn" sidearm casting but to answer your question, yes if you were to use a back cast it would most likely get caught on your other rods in the holders. I prefer side arm casting over back casting anyway, just my preference. I can make a quieter presentation when using that cast. You may could try paddle clips to hold your rods on the side of your yak. Make sure to put rod floats on your rods if you're going to do this! I have a vid on that as well. The floats will probably help the rod have a tighter fit in the paddle clips if you go that route. Anyway, hope this helps. Tight lines!

516Spark 2015 Pro Angler 14 is $3,200 I'd look on craigslist for a used 2013 or '14

It is a sun shade for a car windshield that I trimmed and glued inside the hatch. Thanks for watching!

Dave P Hi Dave! I am selling the VenturePoles now and they are available on my website. www.venturetube.net I finally got around to making a short video of them. Link below. Thanks for watching! The VenturePole Stick N Fish! The best priced stake out pole available!

***** Those side boards were on that kayak when I purchased it. I'm honestly not sure where they came from.. Sorry, I'm no help there..

***** It's a harbor freight trailer and I do not trailer it fully loaded. Thanks for watching!

Adam Calnan The batter I use for all of that is the big battery in the storage bin in front of the kayak seat. Its a Stowaway 12V 27 amp/hr mini portable trolling battery purchased from Academy.

Thank you

I build them for my customers. Check them out on my website at www.venturetube.net

Haha! That's why I got the trailer.

VentureTube I'm slowly adding more and more. I bet the trailer is a life saver. Probably wouldn't work with a mom car, but I don't have nearlllly as much stuff as you do on my boat yet. Lookin good!

+Jonathan Trowbridge Slightly but not enough to make me not bring my gear. Obviously, the weight will make it harder to move, but it also makes it move less in the wind...C'mon!

Serves as a reference point when fishing offshore.

VentureTube you can see that little thing floating from a distance??

yes. you're not really that far from it. 30 yards at most usually.

Hi Linda. Unfortunately, I no longer stock it.

516Spark IMO, YES!! Kayaks will get you on the water quicker, more often and much cheaper than a boat. Thats why I sold my bass boat.. I fish almost daily..This kayak has paid for itself just in gas savings. No carpet replacing, no gas, no oil, no storage fees, no break downs.. It's just simple and it works. Their are many kayak manufactures out their that are top notch. I chose Hobie for it's stability and for the pedal drive. You can't beat the power of the mirage drive. Plus fishing competivetly, I wanted a yak I could stand up in. Yes their are other kayaks that can do the things a Hobie can do for cheaper, but I wanted a Hobie ;D Hope this helps!

bbcasting working on it...

Sorry I no longer make them.

I have one on the flag. Here ya go. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VZ8bfvNQgYc.html
