Hey All,


I’m trying to rig up my profisha 525 and I have a FF install question. How do you run your power/transducer lines out from the fish hatch to connect to the FF unit? It seems like the carbon fiber lid wouldn’t be able to handle running the wires underneath. It seems like it’s either too tight or would crack the CF. Any input would be great.

Thanks!

Hi All,

I’m moving and having to sell my entire kayak fishing setup. I would like to sell this all in one lot and not break it up please. Looking for $3000 for everything. There’s well over than value worth of equipment and tackle.

2017 hobie outback -yellow w/ turbo fins and square center hatch mod
Lowrance HDS 7 FF w/ all in one transducer (side scan included)
2 sets of wheels for launching (one hard for ramps and one for beaches)
Shark shield - last time I charged it (a year ago) it held a 4 hour charge
Kokatat hydrus gortex dry suit (size L)
Kokatat fishing PFD
36” kill bag
Large salmon net
Quick release anchor rigging
Wood gaff
2 crab rings w/ floats and lead core line
Kayak stands
Tons of various tackle (salmon, halibut, rockfish, freshwater) hog troughs, lead weights, etc.

Here are some pictures taken in my garage. Sorry for shitty quality. My house is being painted and there was scaffolding blocking my garage.

Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers.

So I just got my new outback and I’m tying to figure out where some good  locations are to mount a rod holder for trolling. I feel like the recessed areas by the map pockets are too thin walled to take the stress of trolling deep for salmon w/ a deep 6 or lead.

The space in front of the front (useless unless love bait fishing or dead sticking) seems like a good area, but it’s not very flat.

Any ideas guys?

Also, what kind do y’all like?

Cheers for the answers/ideas.

My rod tip on one of my lamiglas rods got bent. The blank is ok, it's just the guide that needs to be replaced. I looked up on the interwebs about replacing it myself. Looks straightforward.

The problem is when I look at the tip of my rod.. It looks like there is some sort of clear coat that I'm not sure if simply heating it will release it.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Cheers. Thanks,
Dave

What are y'all favorite kayak fishing (or just regular fishing as well) YouTube Channels?

Random question. What are your favorite rod holders for trolling for salmon? I had a cannon in my last kayak, not sure of the model, which wasn't bad. Looking for an upgrade for the new kayak.

cheers,
Dave

I bought a dragonfly 7 the other day. Was reading specs online and it said it's operating voltage range is 10.8-15.6v. I have a 12v battery that I used for my elite 4 hdi. Will I need to get a bigger battery for this unit to function correctly or will the 12v battery be sufficient?

Thanks for the responses.

Which would be the best one for ocean kayak fishing? 83/200 or the 50/200?

Thanks,
Dave
