Cobra xl - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

supaboy1981 · 04-03-2015, 04:07 PM

Hey I might be getting an XL pretty soon. But from what I understand they stopped being manufactured in the early 2000's. Any idea when were they last produced?

Its a cobra XL with a lowrance fish finder, gear bag, Abu Garcia 6 ft pole, and a universal roof mount straps. I dont see where I can mount a bait tank but there is 3 hatches two circle hatches and one huge one on the back.

Any feedback.

Looking to fish LA Jolla, Carlsbad and oside lagoons, harbors,bays and more.

Thanks in advance

Very old hull design. I used to have one and sold because it was ok for paddling but limited as a fishing platform. My younger brother who has the balance of a monkey in trees, capsized it off of Oceanside. I never felt comfortable fishing off of mine.

Better kayak. Old design but very fishable.
