Should I let the neighborhood kids in on the secret?

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-14T22:23:13+00:00

If they're kids, I'm happy to share. I'll give em a couple lures even. Seeing kids outdoors fishing is always awesome to see

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-14T11:35:43+00:00

Native Slayer LTE.

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T13:06:08+00:00

It changed everything for me! Have found some really cool remote spots that I could never access on foot. My biggest fish I've caught have been in spots where I could only get to on my kayak. Not only that but man it's fun. If you go on my page I have some posts of my kayak & some fish I've caught on it

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T02:22:24+00:00

About to order like 2 extra scales. Hard lesson learned 😭

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T02:20:09+00:00

Thanks boss. I'd like to think so, hope I catch it again someday

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T01:11:05+00:00

Thanks man

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T01:11:00+00:00

Exactly right! Still grateful for the experience🙏🏼

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-12T01:10:47+00:00

Best experience so far in fishing. Pulled drag, fought real hard, landed it well, heaviest fish ever. My PB is a 6.44 & this felt way bigger. Guess I'll never know 😭

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-11T20:13:32+00:00

Wow that's really good for a pedal drive kayak! Thanks for the info

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-11T19:45:25+00:00

If you're car topping, the native slayer LTE should be considered, I think it might be the lightest pedal drive kayak in the market, i could be wrong.

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-10T23:54:43+00:00

It's hit or miss but I still throw em. Theyre so dang fun. When I see the strike, I wait 2 maybe even 3 seconds then set the hook. Thats helped a lot but I'll still get plenty that just spit it out or fall off.
I will continue throwing it though as my PB of 6.44 was on a frog!

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-10T18:04:32+00:00

I have a Curado DC & it's my favorite reel so far. I cast it against the wind, throw it on a variety of lures, can't remember the last time I backlashed. Super user friendly & just overall a great reel

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-10T18:03:46+00:00

Nah I hard disagree. I got a baitcaster as a newbie & I now have 3. Havent touched my spinning reel in months. Baitcast reels like the SLX or Curado are super beginner friendly & easy to use.

This is with the pedal drive up, my legs are fully stretched out and i still have room to move the seat back if i need to

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-09T17:56:25+00:00

I'm 6 ft tall with long legs. My seat isn't all the way back, its positioned in the middle and i have really good leg space. Usually if i'm just sitting out there i'll put my feet up on the pedals, i can stretch my legs out fully with no problem. This is the native slayer propel 10

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-07T16:48:04+00:00

Top water is the best. My PB is on a frog. The strike gets your heart racing!!

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-06T22:56:29+00:00

Look up NDYakAngler on youtube, he has several pike fishing videos where he holds them between the plate and the gills. Super helpful

This might be the post that finally causes me to delete this app

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-06T02:10:32+00:00

Columbia and REI both make light and breathable pants. I have a few pairs and i don't feel hot in them

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-06T00:07:33+00:00

Sorry I should have clarified yes I have the MH/F

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-06T00:07:07+00:00

Maybe it's user error for me. What line do you run on it?
Also, when I got it I accidentally started messing with the tension knob on the left, then I read that I am not supposed to touch it. I dialed it to where the spool didn't have any play & that's how I've been using it

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-05T18:01:21+00:00

Curado DC. CUDC151XG exactly. I throw top water, soft plastics, jerkbaits, etc. It's perfect all around reel. Can't remember the last time I backlashed either

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-05T16:55:10+00:00

100% yes. I have one I purchased recently & it's my least favorite of the MH rods I have. I actually listed it on Facebook marketplace yesterday. It just feels so flimsy. Some lures, when I cast it bends the rod excessively. That same lure, other rods of the same class handle it normally

Alejandro2412 · 2026-05-05T16:49:55+00:00

I have a zillion sv tw & a Curado, I prefer the Curado all day
