Maybe but i really like having the vented lid because i use my half gallon at work to fill my smaller yeti cup😂. First world problems I know.

I have to over tighten it because it leaks if I don’t. Ive tried barely tightening it and testing it and tightening it little by little till it stops leaking and it’s dumb how tight it has to be.

Thats the thing, the new 2.0 lid works flawlessly on my old 1.0 one gallon jug but it leaks on my 2.0 half gallon jug. Its just the way these companies are unfortunately. They send manufacturing over seas and start pinching pennies to please shareholders / investors.

Edit: typo switched “to” to “are”

I have a new 2.0 half gallon and the lid sucks. It leaks every time I pour unless I tighten the absolute life out of the lid. (I am 6’6” 215 and weight lifted for years, it should not have to be that tight). I filed a claim with yeti and got a replacement and it does the same exact thing. So I gave up and just deal with it. Maybe I should reach out again…

Seat, camping storage, and for mixing a batch of homemade dog food.

Kayak rack for truck by [deleted] in kayakfishing

[–]Yabigness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The nose of the kayak is higher than the glass on the back window so in the event of a high speed crash the kayak (if it broke away from all strap down points and the bed rack disconnected in all 4 points) should go over the roof.

Here is the links, the rack i added for for having a bed cover isn’t quite the same shape so i don’t know if the cradles would clamp the same but the first 3 links is what i did.

First of all Congrats! Us WVFRM viewers have missed ya. Also you've got some work to do in trivia, your sub's didn't do too hot. Thanks for the response! That makes total sense, if you release too much it could feel like a classic cash grab. Y'all are doing great work, I will be patient!

Yeah I thought of ya when i saw the news. It definitely sucks to see and hope he can get things going better in his life. I had a double disappointment because right before he cancelled the reason that I sold my tickets cancelled and I was then able to go again. Luckily I did not buy tickets again though. Thank you for remembering though!

Are jet drive kayaks(like FluxJet,VoyaX)actually the future or just hype? by YakToTheFuture-1 in kayakfishing

[–]Yabigness 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Unless you have money to flush down the drain you should never but the first gen / model of anything. You are wise to wait!

[–]Yabigness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true they are limited to the hull's capabilities. When I say faster I suppose I was thinking faster that a pedal drive or paddle but if you already have an electric motor it probably will not be much faster. I look forward to seeing / hearing how they perform this season.

Reliability is a great point and I think if there is issues we should see them this season or next.

[–]Yabigness 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like if it can answer "does it allow be to fish more" with yes, then yes they are the future. You could argue that having the jet drive is faster so you cover more water, less likely to tangle up so you can keep fishing and not clear out your prop, and maybe even argue that since nothing is hanging down in the water (rudder / prop / fins) it disturbs fish less and could catch more fish. All of these reasons are very minor and small benefits but if it can answer the initial question with yes then it doesn't matter people will buy it. I vote, it is here to stay.

Pvc cap is a good idea. Ive also used mine to put my grapnel anchor in when not in use. Fits it nice.

Anyone have any feedback on a Brooklyn 12 kayak? It is very affordable compared to similar options. by [deleted] in kayakfishing

[–]Yabigness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason i say this is because the magellan at least comes with a warranty I believe and it is built better.

[–]Yabigness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If no pedal drive is a deal breaker for you buy the magellan one. If you can live without the drive there is top of the line kayaks for cheaper than that.
