If you’re a seasoned kayaker might want to skip this one as it’s a super basic run down as I have had a few requests from people to go over my kayak fishing set up, especially my uncle Tom, so this one’s for you Tom!!
In this video, I will go over all the gadgets on my kayak which is a Viking Profish 400. How I use it and set the whole thing up ready to fish.
The list of my gear:
Kayak: Viking profish 400
Sounder: Garmin Striker 5
Starport accessories: all railblaza (mobile holder, GoPro boom, rod holder)
Catch bag: wave passion large kayak cooler bag
Wheels: C-Tugz sandtrakz wheels

what a set up pal 👌 given me a load of things to think about lol

@henrycatchesfish 8 месяцев назад

Thanks mate! Appreciate the comment! Yes definitely loads of improvements can always be made😆 I’ve seen some seriously tricked out kayaks at the competitions here

@Metalsignman 3 месяца назад

The one thing I would suggest you might like to add would be a stringer, clips into the backer of your insulated bag easy to slide the fish into and handy just to string the fish throw it back into the water while you sort out the gear get a line back in then sort the fish out

@henrycatchesfish 3 месяца назад

Hey mate thanks for the comment, that’s a good idea have thought about that but I religiously bleed my fish and leave them in in the footwell to bleed out so can get another line out while they’re bleeding so haven’t found the need for a stringer yet! But I may consider it in future

Very functional set up without mess . Lots of leashing points . A very neat package. 👌 look forward to your next video , cheers 😊

@henrycatchesfish 11 месяцев назад

Thanks Alan! Yes lots of leash points although I don’t know if I could even have too many🤣 run out of room pretty quick with 4 rods 2 cameras and a paddle!

Great video Henry. I have the 400. Can you tell me how the garmin gt20 transducer fitted? Isn't it a bit long for the slot?

@henrycatchesfish 11 месяцев назад

Hi Martin, yes a little bit! I used the Viking transducer fitting kit but it is kinda at full stretch on the threaded bolt because it’s outside of the slot! I’m just carful to not scrape the transducer and always use the wheels then lift the front of the kayak at the beach until it floats! Seems to work well enough for me!

Do you find that fishfinder is close enough to see ok mounted on the tackle pod.. I've got a 400 and I'm debating whether to put a fishfinder there or on a scotty type arm a bit closer to me?

@henrycatchesfish 2 месяца назад

Hey mate, yep i find this set up works pretty well! The thing I like is that it’s low down so doesn’t get in the way of my fishing but just have to find what works for you! Can always position it and sit in your kayak on the grass at home or something and see where you feel like it’ll be comfortable for you!

@henrycatchesfish 5 месяцев назад

Ah man that’s a long time! I know Viking had a fire and had to move premises and also has changed ownership I believe! Hopefully shows up for you soon they’re such wicked machines!

You heading to the rob fort kayak event this weekend?

@henrycatchesfish 8 месяцев назад

Sadly not bro, my mate Shaun should be there 👍🏼

@fishinbite 11 месяцев назад

Nice vid! Did you make the suncover for the Garmin? if so, what materials did you use.

@henrycatchesfish 11 месяцев назад

Thanks! It’s actually a Rob fort cover from marine deals

@clevertrevor1549 5 месяцев назад

Rob Fort makes some great kit. Recommend you get some Velcro straps or some kind of lanyard on that cover to keep it attached for when youTurtle, then you won’t lose it.
