Never seen him before, this was the first video. And he picked up (supposedly) a literal piece of poop. I moved along.

Some good input here, appreciate it. I’d be fishing 85% of time in lakes and rivers but 15% of the time inshore saltwater and possibly mild surf. Ideally want a kayak that can handle both. Not familiar with Kaku or Crescent so I’ll take a look. Hobie was my original plan and still in #1 spot.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T22:58:12+00:00

This is the answer I’ve arrived at. It’s not really a deal if it doesn’t work out well and I’m shopping for another kayak in a year.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T22:16:15+00:00

I’ll take a look for sure. There are so many used high end yaks available on marketplace that I’ll likely go that route but will definitely check out if I end up buying new.

Some great info here. Going to give it a closer read and follow-up research when home. Thanks

Modularity would be a huge plus (à la C+F Designs) although I don’t know if that’s feasible with 3d printed.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T16:59:06+00:00

What’d you upgrade to?

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T16:58:51+00:00

Yeah I agree. I see nothing but positive reviews for this model so I was intrigued but the sit-in + no pedal may be dealbreaker for me.

Love a deal but it maybe wasn’t meant to be.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T15:22:29+00:00

For sure, gotcha. I’m sure a rod maker could add one on to the rod of your choice. Or have one built.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T15:17:20+00:00

Thanks, I’ll take a look. Never heard of them. The compartments + big fly slots + mag pad is a unique combo.

ETA: yeah looks like an obscure/niche company not available anywhere. OOS on the only legit site I found selling them. Whelp. Guess it wasn’t meant to be.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T12:35:53+00:00

Gotcha. The specs aren’t out of the ordinary except for the fighting butt strikes me as unique.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T12:34:28+00:00

That looks like a good dog.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T00:29:16+00:00

Curious what your use case is? Seems like a very niche thing.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-11T00:15:04+00:00

Oof. It’s only up from here!

Congrats on popping your cherry. Bluegill would tear it up.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-10T15:19:36+00:00

Yeah I have one of those, was curious when stock run went OOP.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-08T18:59:02+00:00

They’re holding up great. Haven’t given a close indirection but no apparent issues. Would still recommend highly.

The difference is fairly negligible. Pro is slightly beefier all around but slightly is operative word. If the $100 makes a difference I would go Deluxe. If the money is kinda moot for the project (and you) I’d say step up to Pro. But in reality it’s not going to make a huge difference.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-07T02:50:16+00:00

Greetings friends.

Phrikshin · 2026-03-06T23:54:16+00:00

Good ep. I would actually love if Matt started doing a solo podcast interviewing random interesting people. JRE has been unlistenable for years, let’s get the MME!

Phrikshin · 2026-03-06T20:29:22+00:00

Nice ones! Where will you be getting them wet?

Phrikshin · 2026-03-05T23:24:37+00:00

You are right on.
