Excellent engineering work!
Thank you!
Im looking to do basically the same thing. I think I'll pretty much copy your setup. Thanks for sharing!
@@floridagunrat1625 you’re welcome. Good luck!
Life is too short so teach your son to clean your stuff
Bruh! He's having a blast!
He had so much fun cleaning the ground is wet
Love the set up almost as much as the faggie aggie flag awesome
@@andrewborrego8951 the flag rules
Your cart is too far back. Move it forward until it is right behind the centre of gravity. It'll make life a lot easier.
@@nhansen197 will do. Thanks!
Love the vid keep up the work and you will be up there one day.
@@russell_tt1057 that means a lot. Thanks, man!
That way of raising the motor out of the water is genius, also actually affordable. Ive seen setups that require you to buy and install expensive hydraulic things with extra wires. I like this much better and will definitely be trying it on mine
It’s very cheap and simple, and has held up beautifully for 1 year.
Oh snap? Y'all been here in North Cackalacky? Small world 😂
@@vinceabarca we love Durham, NC!
Wow. I'm not sure I woukd have jumped out of my boat for a bass, but then again maybe 😂. Your son is definitely gonna have tgat topwater addiction now. Great job for both of you.
Haha. It was nice to take a quick dip in the water. It was HOT. Thanks for watching!
❤❤❤

where did you get the angle braces that your 2 x4 is screwed into , i’ve looked on home depot and lowe’s and can’t seem to find them on their websites

@@bobbywaltersinsurance9081 no problem. Good luck with your build!
@@LunkerHunter I went to Home Depot yesterday and found the brace that’s just like yours I really appreciate you getting the info back to me so quick
@bobbywaltersinsurance9081 no problem. Happy you found it!
This video was INCREDIBLY helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your designs and engineering skills!
@@gregalbee9725 thanks for watching the video!
Great video , How has this setup held up for you ? I'm looking to build one here and wondering if these Amazon pwms burn up quickly ! Thanks !
So far so good! I’m in the process of making a follow up review after using it for about a year.
@@LunkerHunter Can't decide weather to rehouse the stock speed control , do a pwm conversion like you , or a hobby wing 880 esc setup . Lots of options. Look forward to your thoughts !
Nicely done. I didn't have space for a transom adapter on my Folbot kayak, so built a custom 3D printed motor mount without any of the factory trolling motor transom parts. Originally had a pulley to raise the motor (similar to this video), but it tended to twist the motor to one side as it was raised. I then changed to a DC gearmotor winch to raise the motor, no twisting as it is raised. Then added a second DC gearmotor to tilt the motor completely out of the water. It required finding just the right gearmotor with a worm drive so it is self locking in any position of tilt. The nylon tilt gears were 3D printed.
That’s cool you printed your mount! Those are all great ideas. Wish I could see your set up!
Genius!
@@k1gmmgreenmountainmaniac251 thanks!
you can put the glands (sans the inside nut) on the cable before putting the female connectors on to keep the inner rubber in tact. (I did connections first too but cut them off to redo
@@WoJoMoZilla great idea!
Agreed
Seems to always be fish in that spot
@@TheHunter877 I’m glad there’s was that day! Thanks for watching.
Just came across your video, I was out there as well that day and that weather was rough! Subbed!
Thanks! Yes, it was. You going again this year?
@@LunkerHunter absolutely as well as the Texas bass nation one aug 3rd
@J.BruckerFishing I remember you! Haha. You were one of the winners. I watched your video a while back
@@LunkerHunter thanks for watching! Yeah it was a pretty good day, fishing was tough though.
Just picked up my fishing kayak. Your system looks assume. Going to follow it for my Kayak. Love the vertical lift for the trolling motor. Thanks
Thanks. Good luck!
Very nice build I would use a lawnmower pull handle for the up and down, instead of 3/4 “ PVC ….. nice job …!KTW
Thanks!
Frickin brilliant work here. Thanks so much for posting this.
Thanks, bud!
I found the same watertight box on amazon with two sizes small and large may I know which size did you use? Hard to visualize the measurement might not accurate on the description.
8 x 6.75 x 3.5
yo how you extend the wiring for your trolling motor
12 V jumper cables. Bought them from tractor supply. Like $8
Check out my DIY video on how I rigged up my motor, battery, and steering. That will help you!
@@LunkerHunter thanks
@@LunkerHunter wait yk the wiring that comes up to the throttle on the mini kots there’s like 5 wires how do i make that longer
@@GaryTarbuk yes. The wire that came with the Minn Kota trolling motor was enough to go from the motor to the pwm. I only used the red and black wires by the way. I tucked the brown and blue wires back into the neck of the motor.
If you change it to where it tilts forward out of the water instead of straight up you can keep the steering tight .i just ziptied a Keychain ring right to the top of the motor pole and drilled a hole in the top of the yak just in front of the motor .ran it all the way up to betweej my legs where it pops out and a quick pull will raise it out of the water and forward into the rear deck.also makes it more stable than staying out on the back
I chose not to do it this way due to the increased torque it puts on the gear tracks when you tilt it. I also don’t that you have to keep the motor unlocked when doing it this way. There are way to do it with a locking/unlocking mechanism, but that was too many lines running through the yak. Either way should be functional, but I don’t understand how that way would make it more stable though. To me this makes everything less stable.
@LunkerHunter I have a rope also attached I can pull tight and clip in for reverse lock ..but then noticed on the water I've never had an issue backing up and the motor coming out of the water unless you floor it from a stop. I just noticed the further out you have weight to the front or back the tippier it can get which the outlaw is hard to tip but still seems more stable with it pulled in closer and not hanging off the back. If it works it works and is a killer idea to lift it out of the water ..it would just save the hassle of having to adjust your steering system and could do without reverse lock unless you've felt an issue .I swear it'll back out just fine loose tho .
@@mutinyrider666 if that set up works for you, that’s awesome. That’s the beauty of being creative. Thanks for watching the video, and contributing your knowledge.
Nice set up.
I appreciate it!
Looks likw so much fun
There’s nothing like it!
Nice work bud.
Thanks!

What body of water?
Ratcliff lake
Fit a Voltage/ Percentage Meter to your control Box
What will this do?
Do you know who I would need to talk to to ask for permission to fish this pond ?
look sick!
Thanks!
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
No problem!
This is one incredible kayak. One of my dreams of kayak fishing.
Make your dream a reality and get to work!
@@LunkerHunter I have my kayak, building information like you described for what I need. I always make my goals a reality.
@@traveler7353 good luck!!
I absolutely love this set up! This is going to save me a lot of money in time compared to what my original plan was! Thank you so much for the great video! I’m looking forward to building a very similar set up for my vibe yellowfin 130 T
Thanks for watching! I hope your build goes well! Let me know if you have any questions.
Omg a reflection in the water! No way! Why did youtube even show me this? So dumb. 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks CZcams! That’s what you get for mindlessly scrolling 🤣🤣
Why did you comment then
What do you guys expect coming from a real zero 😂😂😂
@@cdizzlewdizzle343 🤣🤣
@@ImdaDawg2010 right?
I will say i have this Exact same kayak and I cannot stand up in it. I am 34 and am no stranger to balance but no way would I fish in that thing standing up.
If the water is calm it ain’t that hard. Give it a try! I’m 235 pounds and I do it.
@@LunkerHunter I am 6’2” 215, I used to skateboard and I wouldn’t do it. The stability ain’t there for me.
@@broome090 I get it. It’s definitely not meant to stand up on. I only do it to stretch out my legs and back for a minute. Eventually I’d like to get into a higher end rig, like a Native or Old Town
@@LunkerHunter Yeah im liking Natives kayaks as well. Jackson doing good stuff too. But ill probably end up in a feel free or something a little more budget friendly. Happy Fishing!
I've got a 5' caiman boat and it comes with a foot guided trolling motor system. My biggest problem is where to store a tackle box and keep fish if you get into a bunch of crappie. These things are really for mobile fishing and catch and release. It's hard to stay stationary very long.
Sounds like you need to bring a small cooler on board!
@@LunkerHunter I meant a 10’ caiman but it’s tight with gear.
@@corky5928 cool!
That’s a really great and inexpensive idea. I too use a power bank, so that I’m not constantly changing GoPro batteries. Due to all the rain in Texas lately, I had to come up with a way to waterproof mine. What I did was apply UV resin “Flex” to the same areas you referenced and a UV light to cure it. Works like a charm. When I want to remove the resin, I use a razor blade to simply pop it off.
I’m not too familiar with UV resin, but that sounds like a great idea! This rain has been crazy!
So smart you are so talented 😮
Thanks! 😘
Woo🎉
👍👍
LOL let them grow. That's good bait size haha

How do you keep the battery charged all the time to keep power to the fish finder ?
This battery will last all day for multiple days on the water. I just charge it at home.
Ok so what battery charger do I need to get of it
@@ronniewayne7672 ULTRAPOWER 4Amp 12.8V-14.6V... www.amazon.com/dp/B08MPX414R?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share This is what I have. Works well.
Thank you
@@ronniewayne7672 no problem. Good luck!
this was shared in fb for instruction so great job. I'm concerned with all mounting to the hull even with gusset reinforcement this is not impact resistant. Things happen faster than the telescoping can assist. I'd sacrafice reverse for a free swing. if you hit any unknown below the mass of the yak will be transferred to the hull mounting.
There is some give when you hit something. The mount is not attached to the kayak on the back, which allows for some movement. I’ll post a video soon demonstrating.
Nice effort but having that motor mounted 2 feet away on plastic rail mounts seems grossly inadequate. If you drag the bottom hard enough it will snap that right off.
I appreciate the comment, and watching the video, but you’re wrong about that. The aluminum has plenty of give and actually moves up when I hit a log or the bottom. This has happened 100+ times. The integrity of the plastic mounts is much stronger than the plastic the kayak is made of. I’m actually working on a follow up video of the pros and cons of this design, and what you mentioned is a definite pro from the last 8 months of use.
Having a fan in an enclosed non vented box does nothing but increase the heat within the unit.
Agreed. Any suggestions on how to make it vented while keeping it waterproof? I have yet to have any issues, knock on wood.
I have learned that the forward reverse switch is NOT waterproof. Water splashed onto mine and set the motor in reverse on both settings. Had to lean over and blow it out. Anyone else had this problem ?
@Robley35 hmm. I’ve fished in heavy rain with no problems. Check out my Lake Fork video… But maybe I got lucky?
@@LunkerHunter I kinda splashed the box on purpose to see its limits. I’m thinking of finding a rocker switch with the waterproof cover
@Robley35 That’s a good idea. Let me know how that works.
Pool noodles…brilliant!
🤣🤣 got this idea from other CZcamsrs
Man thats a great set up! I will like to have one like that.
Thanks for watching! I made the video so you can do it yourself one day!
