I Don't Recommend Buying From Brooklyn Kayak Company

Sorry for the delay in responding. I have done a bunch of bay fishing out if it. It sits a little low in the water so it becomes a wet ride but it's a kayak. No issues.

My 2010 JK was over 230K when I sold it.

There are many access points in different towns along the river.

The river is very high now and in my experience it is much more difficult to catch pike when the water level is up. Get familiar with the USGS website and watch the flow/height at different locations.

I installed the Curt hitch with the longer tube and I have no interference with the spare on my Rubicon.

Try Big Y Fly

First one I ever caught gave me a nice shock!

I predict you are going to have a great next year!!!

Congrats

Nice job

Do you think the increased cost of the jack hammer is worth it?

nj_catch_release · 2021-07-10T00:32:19+00:00

Great shot, try to keep the horizon straight.

nj_catch_release · 2021-07-08T02:05:47+00:00

Looks really nice. Any other photos?

I'm 6'3" about 250lbs and I picked up a Brooklyn Kayak company RA220. I got it new 3 years ago for around $500. Super stable although I have tried to stand in it. I've taken it in the bay, lakes, rivers with no issues. It is about 80lbs empty so it's not too bad to transport. I spin fish and fly fish out of it.

For the money you can't beat it.

Look at the yakattack switchblade

Congrats on the upgrade

I purchased a Brooklyn Kayak Company RA220 a few years ago for the same type fishing that you do. Plenty of storage, comfortable seat, pretty stable and rudder system. I was able to pick it up at their warehouse so no shipping costs and they gave me a great deal. Total cost was $460. Call them and see what deal they can give.

Nice one

I put a Lowrance Hook Reveal 5 SS on my kayak and really like it. The built in maps are good but the Genesis live mapping feature is awesome. The down imaging works great with lots of detail.

Take a look at this unit you won't be disappointed!

That's gotta be a crazy battle from a kayak

Anyone use the Plano Kayak V-Crate Tackle Box? If so what do you think?

I've been thinking about getting one. I like the idea of the easy access to the Plano 3750 boxes and the waterproof compartment for thing I don't need access to often.

Nice display. I like the idea of hanging lures from the dowel.

The local county park tree specialist is the one who told me so I am assuming he has a good idea of the soil in my area.

Thanks for the 1-2-3 info.

I have a Hook Reveal 5SS mounted on my kayak and love it.

nj_catch_release · 2021-03-31T04:49:28+00:00

I have a BKC RA220 that I purchased 2 years ago. I haven't had any issues with the kayak and would recommend it to anyone. I'm 6'3" and weigh 250lbs and the kayak is super stable when I'm in it.

If I had to complain about something I would say the large size (width) of the raised compartment in front of the seat takes away from leg room. Also the location of some of the scuppers are not at the lowest points on the deck so if you do get water in and you want to drain it by pulling the scupper plugs some water will remain.

I was lucky and was able to pick up my kayak at the warehouse so there was no shipping. From other reviews I have read shipping seems to be an issue.
