- If you own an Old Town Kayak or you are considering one, you'll want to know about Navarre Kayak Fishing. I'll show you the accessories I have and discuss how I use them. I'll provide a link to NKF so you can see for yourself how awesome they! I am not affiliated with NKF in any way, other than being a loyal and grateful customer. @NavarreKayakFishing navarrekayakfishing.com

That is a great looking tournament ready lake worthy kayak love the upgrades and the setup. My first kayak selection was the Nucanoe unlimited, but my second choice was the Old Town Sportsman Autopilot 136 Fishing Kayak both off the kayaks will sit a big guy quite comfortably on the water. ❤ take care and God bless!
Thank you sir! I love my old town but you can't go wrong with Nucanoe either. One of the guys in our fishing club bought a Nucanoe about a year ago and he absolutely loves it.
Nice upgrades! I did t realize Navarre kayak acc. made so much for old town. When I had a Hobie they made some good accessories but they have really got some neat new designs. Hope you’re feeling better!
@Eightmile_Drifter thank you! NKF is a great company and I enjoy supporting a small business. I am feeling better finally, took me a couple of weeks. I'm heading to Live Oak Landing today to practice up some more. Thanks for watching.
Very good information on how you can use accessories to customize your vessel to your own liking,nice job!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
I agree with you 100% about the quality parts from Navarre. I have all his parts except the seat risers which I want but haven’t decided what height I would like. Thanks for the walkthrough. 🌊🎣🇺🇸
@SaltyGuerrilla Thank you so much for watching! Yes, they are such a fantastic small business. It feels good to do business with a company that cares about things like service and quality. I appreciate you!
Great info I dig that YAK
Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
Nice set up, mods and tips.
Thank you!
Lost my phone down the drive opening. I have to get the deck insert.
Ouch, that had to sting! The floor insert is nice to have and fits up under the seat when not in use. That and the PDL spacers were the first accessories I bought after getting the kayak. Thank you for watching!
Good review! Everyone I've asked had no issues with Navarre handles. Holes on my handle did not match hole on my kayak and mounting surfaces also did not match. Nick told me it is because my kayak is very cold and it shrunk. Not sure though how shrinkage can effect angles...
Thank you. I know he mentions a lot in his videos that kayaks change shape based on the temp and how they are stored, but I'm not sure how that would change hole patterns 🤔. Mine went right on without issue. Sorry you had the problem. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Great video, great mods and nice looking kayak!!!
Which knob for. the steering did you get, the regular or tall???
Thanks
@txmexnittro thank you my friend!!! I went with the regular size. If I ever upgrade to the metal rudder, I might get the larger knob. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Nice walk through. I've never paid attention to anything wise other than hobie.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. Navarre has some custom Hobie items, but I'm not sure what since I've never had a reason to look.
Nice upgrades and mods - my only question I guess is can you get those accessories in the same color as your Kayak ? I personally don't have a Kayak, but I would probably want those in either Black or something close to the Kayak color. Nice walk through
Thank you. Most all of their accessories come in your choice of orange or black. Old Town kayak accent color is orange, regardless of the kayak color. Thanks for watching!
Pretty neat stuff. I know nothing about kayaks and noticed that in front of the seat there are 2 holes. Are these drain holes for the boat and do they have plugs that go in them when on the water? That propeller deal is pretty wild. Cool stuff.
Thank you @monzsterman! Yes, those are scupper holes and they do come with plugs, but you don't have to use them. In fact, I don't plug those holes. Water doesn't come in. You should plug them in really rough water just to keep the cockpit dry, but water drains right out. I appreciate you watching! I love my kayak!!
@@yakkittymack appreciate the info
What trailer do you use? I like it and seams to fit you Old Town like a glove.
@randywalkersr9380 I bought a used jet ski trailer off marketplace place for like $350. Gave it a good cleaning, installed LED lights, and up sized the wheels to 13". So all in about $600 and yes, it fits perfectly. Thank you so much for watching and commenting on the video! Sorry for the delayed response, I've been working 13 hours a day remodeling our bathroom and of course, it's one problem after another 😆
It was good to see this cause my Old Town Sportsman is currently BURIED in snow in the backyard. 😥My favorite accessory is that track mount on the back for a flag. I never use my flag because I don't want it to take up a fishing rod holder. Do you find that insert plate to be useful? I thought about getting one but I decided that there aren't enough times where I have the drive system raised to justify having another item bouncing around in the kayak.
I delayed getting the flag and light for the same reason, so I jumped on the mounting plate as soon as I saw it. The tournaments I will be fishing requires a flag/light. To be honest, the only time I use the insert plate is storage and transport. As soon as I reach peddle depth water I take it out and put it under the seat. I have gone out without the PDL twice at a shallow lake campground, but I can't say it's a necessity. I'm loving the flush mount rod holder insert plate. I used that rod holder for my net, so now it can serve dual purpose. I try to keep the cockpit as open as possible so moving my transducer arm back there is nice. If I decide to take 5 rods and need another holder, I'll add one to the plate in the back where I have the flag. Thank you for watching! Sorry about the snow ❄️ I know all too well that feeling.
What trailer are you using in this video? In the market for one right now and that seems to fit that kayak perfect
@jeffboisseau7680 I bought a used jet ski trailer on marketplace for like $400. Did a little sprucing up and put LED light kit on. I'd love to one day have an "0n the water innovation" trailer. If you haven't seen one, check them out. Very nice but pretty costly too. Thank you for watching. I appreciate you!!
