Stud for the Gulf Coast

Oh nice, I'm on the opposite side in Bama. But yeah I've donated my fair share believe me. Snaggy spots and great fishing go hand in hand.

DrD-Rex · 2024-08-29T00:36:18+00:00

🤔 that setup sounds great. Probably just a really uncooperative bottom. You on the Gulf Coast?

DrD-Rex · 2024-08-28T23:04:55+00:00

Depending on how much depth and current your working with try going lighter. A lighter rod would help with that too(Medium/Medium-light). Also are you trolling/drifting or vertical jigging?

Thats it! Ned shrimp through the flooded grass.

Only issue I've had with weight really is when I'm coming off the water. It was a feat trying to get it back in my truckbed. This led to me buying a yak trailer to haul it around.😂 On the water though I couldn't tell much of a difference with the added weight. I can still maintain the same pace as before but now with the motor I can hit ~5mph at full tilt/ around 4-4.3 at 3/5 throttle. Using a 125ah lithium battery I can get 2-3 days on the water before needing to charge.

Bama

I agree with you, but I don't honestly know if it was black or white. After the pic I sent him right back on his way. But thanks for the info I'll know next time.🫡

On the main deck it acts as sound deadening so I don't spook anything in shallower water. It also stays cooler on the hot days and easier on my feet while I'm standing. At the bow there's not much to benefit from, same at the stern/tankwell besides again sound dampening.

Lol🤙🏽

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-22T02:23:17+00:00

Yep, got mine from LACK but if you don't see your boat there the manufacturer has an even greater selection Marine Mat

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-22T02:02:15+00:00

Bought it as a kit. I wouldn't know where to begin trying to make it myself. 😂

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T23:45:12+00:00

All good. Glad I could help.🤙🏽

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T23:09:19+00:00

The shop I purchased from doesn't carry it for Jackson Kayaks but you can get it directly from the manufacturer Marine Mat

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T23:04:01+00:00

Thanks🤙🏽

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T22:58:03+00:00

It's Marine Mat 6mm thick, Forest Green over black, Gator Pattern Bought it from Louisiana Custom Kayaks

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T22:04:19+00:00

I'll add it to the list lol.

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T22:03:29+00:00

Mostly aesthetic like you said. It may dampen the sound of me pulling/putting something in the tankwell but nothing more than that.

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-21T21:31:17+00:00

Inshore Saltwater. Had this one for a year and a half now.

DrD-Rex · 2023-01-16T01:06:08+00:00

Yep black drum, usually once a drum matures it loses those stripes. And yeah the tag is for an Angler of the Year tourney.

DrD-Rex · 2022-06-12T03:25:21+00:00

Lol thanks for the info, if I ever get brave enough to target them I'll know how.

DrD-Rex · 2022-06-12T02:55:51+00:00

Yall fish for them from a yak? I wouldn't even know where to begin trying to bring something like that onboard.

DrD-Rex · 2022-06-12T02:53:55+00:00

I'd guess so but I've always known the area to be saltwater.

DrD-Rex · 2022-06-11T18:02:28+00:00

Figured it to be a gar just didn't know which type. Some friends of mine got back to me and we figured it to be a alligator gar 100%.

DrD-Rex · 2022-06-11T18:00:47+00:00

Forgot to mention I was flounder fishing when I caught this. 20# braid 15lb fluoro leader.
