For those without a hose to wash their gear off - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

FARRIER · 04-11-2011, 03:12 PM

I recently got a nomad pressure washer which is an 18v cordless/cigarete lighter corded portable pressure washer. It answered the problem i have with no hose access and a detached garage because i live in an apartment complex. I have been using a spray bottle the pesticide type and it was working ok but this things gets decent pressure and has 3.5 gallons so it handles everything. Hope to se y'all on the water...Patrick

I bought this for my reels....It's also powerful enough to clean the kayak of too.

No hoes to wash your yak??? OHH, I forgot, most of you guys are married...

I mean even if you did have some hoes, they really arn't very good at cleaning stuff... it's easier just to do it yourself!

Do you guys really wash your yaks/gear off in fresh water after every trip?

Every trip I do. However as I understand it, it's better to use a low pressure was when rinsing the reels.

165 delivered. And don't use high pressure for your reels if you don't have to. A little splash now and then wont kill em. The adjustable nozzle really sold me. I can use it for more than just my fishing gear. I rinse my gear every trip and my yak as needed. Ill get the major stuff of the yak but only scrub it down when it gets bloody or after a few days in a row.

If you got the orange Nomad, then be very careful with the plastic nipple that you attach the hose to the tank with. They break very easily. BTW, a couple weeks ago, Amazon sent me an email for those for about $90. I thought everyone was pretty much sold out of them a while ago.

damn thats a good price. Thanks for the heads up on the nipple.
