Looking to purchase a Hobie Pro Angler 14 in god condition. I know some of you guys are big into yak fishing and probably know someone who may have one. Will buy a new one if I have to but trying to save a few bucks so I can start loading it out faster.
I'll keep an ear out. All the ones I knew of for sale have been sold but they pop up pretty regularly in good to excellent condition. I sold my old Outback so the wife and I just pulled the trigger on two brand new Outbacks yesterday with a bunch of extra offshore goodies. I can't wait for it to warm up a little bit.
Thanks I have found a few for sale on craigslist but people add a fish finder and a couple ram mounts and want $3500+ for an old style PA.
keep an eye on here Pensacola Fishing Forum I have seen some good deals and wish I lived closer to score one in the past....although unless living closer I really haven't needed one yet ....I like my fishing boat for up here
Monk, I know you have your sights set on a Hobie but I am selling a 13'6 Ocean Kayak Endeavor. Excellent condition(minor scratches on bottom), comes with seat, Carlisle paddle, paddle lanyard, milkcrate/rodholder, Scotty rod holders/GoPro camera holder. If interested shoot me a PM. When I get home from work I'll post some pics.
Yeah im pretty set on the hobie but I know some other people that are looking and I will definitly let them know about it. If I was planning on just fishing the bay and the rivers I would go with a paddle only boat but I plan on spending most of my time in it offshore and the mirage drive is just awesome for trolling.
Peaches isn't using his....
Other than being a wet ride,,I am very pleased with my ocean endeavor,tracks well without rudder,factory rodholders have enuff spread angle for trolling,,,good fishing platform,,
here we go,,,,got 3 glass inexspensive 12 ft rods comingAttachment 1595
A problem I have with most Kayaks is the weight capacity I'm not a small guy at 6'2 and 300#s by the time I add my live well tackle fishbag and ice I am way over the limit of most the PA14 is rated at 600#s so even with a boat full of fish I shouldn't be even close to the limit.
Hmmm? I never seem to get that wet. Do you have scupper plugs for under the seat??
