Out Riggers... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

echo1er · 05-12-2012, 08:39 PM

When I come back from the east I was thinking of getting some out riggers for my hobie revo. But is it really worth it?

I wanted out riggers like the adventure but only found http://www.oceansidediveandkayak.com...trigger/Detail

$335!!! Geez, get a pair of Scotty rocket launchers, mount a couple ball mounts on the yak and make your own with 1 1/2" PVC and lobster floats like I did.

Would like to see how those lobster floats handle the surf.

Talk to Ron at Fastlanes. I talked to him about them in the past and told me they where in the $175 range.

dwntwnall4u that is pretty cool. But price kind of high for a low bidder. Thanks

Baja_Traveler: thats a bad ass picture there bow fishing now that DIY is cool but I fail a lot on big projects. Thanks

Jeff I'll check um out once I come back from the east coast.

If you need training wheels to handle surf you should stick to the bay...

IMHO...

Outriggers = Overrated

IMHO, they'll be more trouble than they are worth. What makes you think you need them?

echo1er · 05-13-2012, 08:27 PM

steveooo- IDK. Just thought it would be cool to have.

training wheels... haha never thought of it like that.

They didn't work out for you.
I'm on the east coast right now. Heading back at the end of the month.
If you have all the parts. I might give you a call when I come back west.

I want these so when my son is whit me I'm more at ease of him moving around.
