Feels like I'm watching a zoffinger video pre buisness, big boat, hobie, con-tiki 2 etc.. right back at the poor mans kayak.
whatever you do to your kayak, all it matter is that it make you happy and have fun while doing it.
Back to the beginning of Poor Man's Kayak... I love it! Keep these videos coming Marty!
Back to The Old School Zoffinger. Great Video Marty.
Easy to assemble and sturdy enough to hold my poles
Not just for beginners, more like back to the basics. I like it. BTW, I like to use a shopping basket like you find at the drug store. They have handles and they get wider at the top so they hold more.
Thank you Marty. Because of you and your videos I have been wanting a fishing kayak for nearly 3 years. As of Saturday I am now the proud owner of one!
Back to basics and ol school Marty. The reason that I became a subscriber.
these are the videos people like to see Marty thank you .. the dogs where just being their self in joying life... you need to talk to pelican about a sit in kayak for off shore fishing i like their hauls.. thanks a gain
Ok Marty I've been watching you for 6 years and that was the first time I've seen your cooler with all water and no beer! So please do not let that happen again. Kayaking without beer is a sin. 😂
lol that's true hehehe
I worry about corrupting the kids ;^)
tray t darn..... the other day was my first kayak outing and I’ve been rigging my kayak up for over a month. I FORGOT THE BEER; 😢
I made a list; checked everything on it; twice and slid the kayak in the water and without hesitation slid into the pilot seat.
My first outing included a 12 mile trek. I had two waters; thats it. I knew I forgot something but couldn’t put my finger on it till reading your comment; BEER; DAMN IT! BEER!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO😯.
That; will never happen again. Someone needs to create a pledge of allegiance to the pureness of kayaking, fishing and beer.
I swear; I’d find a way to stencil it on the hull. 🤣
I agree about the build being as much fun as the outing itself.
I might suggest a thought.
I built two bulkheads using light weight suitcase liner material. This is super lightweight and doesn’t wick water. I secured these tailored bulkhead by using tension rods I got at WM and expand then against the interior walls of the kayak.
Now nothing slides around. Part of this reason was to stow everything possible below the water line and on the floor of the kayak.
I keep a bare minimum on top and every ounce is an added ounce of instability to the kayak in a wake or choppy water conditions.
A boat wake, a tidal shift, and choppy conditions all together and a top heavy kayak is going over.
I’m even considering adding 16 pounds fixed to the hull floor. This will lower my CG create ballast and will nearly be impossible to flip or even remain in its side.
You should get an EZ Dock they are plastic floating docks that have a kayak attachment so you can just paddle up to it and roll it on. And I think they are much cheaper than getting a wooden one!
Man u are the modify master!
Got great ideas from this video, one the tie downs but then I want to make bungee criss cross on the crate so if a spill my gear will stay but still easily get gear in and out. Thanks Marty for the videos
Marty, I just bought a Catch 100. I have a Tarpon 120, but wanted one that was smaller and more stable. It hasn't been in the water yet. I'm tricking it out with things I learned from your videos. I'm adding a hatch to the stern for access for more modifications, like a skeg. Thanks for all the ideas! Looking forward to more videos!
Sir I have learned more from watching your videos than anywhere else. I have a perception Stryker 11.5 and I'm thinking about adding a fixed rudder to it and I will be following your video for help
Thumbs up on the DIY,Marty!
It's good to see you on the water again.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks for making this video Marty. It really helps me pull up the old video I'm searching for.
I can't wait to start up some projects for summer. Thanks for the inspiration Marty!
So simple but so awesome. Milk crates are amazing.
Thanks, Marty, for yet another quality video. Look at all that room in the back of the kayak. Enough for a BIGGG milk crate! Excelent videography. ‘til the next one! :-)
Great video Marty!! Love the DIY inventions that you come up with.
Water💧 in the cooler😯😯???.... I was expecting beer🍺😂😂.... Great job!!!
Great Video Marty. Simple and fun.
Great rigging tips!!! Enjoyed the video!!!
Just watched a few videos on rigging up a kayak. Awesome and thank you. Went out on my buddies yak and i am hooked. Cant wait to get one and rig it up with your ideas.
What a great video Marty and thank you for the great content. I've been slowly modifying my first kayak and it's been a lot of fun so far. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you soon
Love the crate idea 👍🏽Thank you exactly what I was looking for .
I love these type of videos
Awesome rigging. Keepem coming. Tight lines.
Great video. Thank you for a great presentation of your modifications. I’ll definitely use most of the mods on my Lifetime Tahoma.
I use a crate as well but with carabiners I am able to remove from boat easily and keep loaded for transport. I find it gets me on the water quicker.
Nice setup!💯💪👊LET'S GO!!
Good video. I like the diy and common man kayak vids.
Great vid thanks for the ideas
Old School Zoffinger is best Zoffinger. please do more.
Great video man! I just bought my self a Pelican 10ft Bounty 100 Angler. I love it and had a blast over the weekend.
Love this Chanel so much
Nice video. Thanks for these tips.
Love your videos Marty, keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Very helpful ideas.
back to basics. awesome.
Another great video Marty!
I LOVE YOU MARTY KEEP POSTING
Great video!
Thanks, Marty. Good to have a "Bak to Yak" video
Because everyone needs their lost items to originate from one location when the kayak turns over. Instead of sinking from various positions fore and aft you can use this crate to organize your pre-sunk items!
Great tips
Nice one Marty
Eyyy!!! Been going through and watching all your old videos for the past week cause I need my Zoffinger fix... Get on today to continue watching to see you just uploaded! Good stuff Marty! Keep it up!
Great video as always
Now that`s a Milk Crate
Keep on keeping on
Good to see you back on the yak!
Good to be back, Joe
You do amazing
Great videos

YAY another video
Отличное видео !
Awesome 👍👍👍👍👍
Great
Two thumbs up!
A milk crate...kayak fishermans best friend!! Are those Andy's shades he gave you when he came to visit?Very cool...lovely video.
would like to see how you access that fishing crate when you are on the water???
I haven’t been getting my notifications for your channel😫
Make a long trip on your big boat please
I cut the bottom off another milk crate and made a lid so I can lock it down with another bungee so if I tip over nothing sinks to the bottom.
That's a good advanced crate mod for sure.
Great video.
What length paddle are you using? Is that paddle working out ok on your kayak?
Hey Marty I have a question I was just given a Kayak ( 2 seater ) for me and my son but as I tried it I noticed because of my weight it goes really low in the rear and thats with out my gear do you have any ideas to help me out. I really want to start fishing with my son. that kayak I have is a Pelican Apex 129
When you heat the PVC to get it to fit in the flush mount rod holes, can you easily remove and reinsert them?
Hello Zoffinger, you have really inspired me to chase my dreams and i am also starting up a kayak rental business on trhe other side of the country and i would like to some how ask you a couple questions regarding business start up. I dont want to take much of your time.
Where did you enquire that type of milk create or what was it used for so I might find one
Hi cool channel
Hey, i saw the decals (?) on your Catch120. How about telling us how you did that. You are so handy. It's nice you share your tips!
Great video, I’m finally adopting the crate this season. btw, What song is that at the 2:05 mark?
Hey bro need your help . Trying to rig a paddle boat for fishing . The whole 9 yards . Rod holders, fish finder , lights , milk crate, just going all out . Even thinking of adding some pontoons for extra stability.
Good video,my first time watching,do you think paddle or foot paddle when buying my kayak?
How do u make the paint to stay on the pvc pipe? I spray painted mine, but the paint scratches off so easily.
Good vid. got any suggestions on some good soft lures? anything you recommend?
My fav is the Zoom Swimmin Super Fluke in White Pearl
What kid of stickers do u buy I cant get any to stay on my kayak
Finally another video. So you made me add a milk crate... but, Is it me, or did you leave the crate off in your fishing trip? :-D
What's the length of ur kayak? and thanks for all the good info n great ideas for up grading our kayak!
That's a 12 footer, but I fit just fine in the 10 foot version.
Would you recommend a sit in or sit on for a new guy? I was looking at the Pelican Maxim 100X Fish Kayak 10-ft sit in and im 6'4" 225lbs...
That kayak is too small for you. Don't believe the 275 rating. It's based upon an older design that was 225 rated. It depends what you're doing? Fishing, touring, etc? Where are you going? Exposed ocean, calm pond, etc? A sit-on will be much easier for someone your size getting in and out, and easier to move around in. A sit-on will also do better with waves breaking over the bow, and are almost unsinkable as the hull is sealed (also easier to remount if you capsize because there's no water to pump out). A sit-in will be more stable and more sheltered, keep you drier, and generally be faster in the water. A sit-in will also have more storage potential, but harder to reach while afloat. For fishing, a sit-on is usually king. I would get a 12', because of the extra weight capacity and it will also be more stable in the water.
Agree with the other comment. Get yourself at least a 12 footer. I actually know someone who fishes from a tandem (from the middle) and it serves him well. It was around 13ft and inexpensive. Check your want-ads like craigslist for them and consider some bigger used kayaks to get yourself started..
Sweet ty , Love your channel man :)
yeah man, @ 6' and 275 a 10' yak sat WAY too low in the water for me. 12' was much more comfortable to paddle and fish. I would be lying if I said I didn't have my eyes out for a cheap used Native Ultimate 14.5.
How do can I buy a sticker.Been a fan for quite a while
5:35 wonders if the tides are high will you ever pass?
Posted right after school ended!!
I weigh 270 lbs..... what size kayak would you recommend?
I’m in your weight class. The Old Town Topwater 106 has a 440 pound capacity, weighs 73 and is very stable even in the high chair position.
Retails for $900, but I saved 20% at Dunham Sports by signing up for Store “Rewards” emails.
I'll be flying into Tampa next week. Is your kayak rental business open? I can't find a number on your site.
I’ll be passing through at the end of June. Will you be accepting visitors by then ?
Why such a big milk crate? How much milk do you need out there?
Ya never know. You might find a cow nosed ray! HA! Ya see what I did there? I made a joke about milk...and cows...and, ahhhh, nevermind.
I think you can fit some chocolate syrup in your cooler
Please more kayak fishing!!!
:)
lol he doesn't even take the crate 6:12
Youre smart... You are beautiful
Hey Marty, im concerned about your kayaks baking in the sun. Sun is the worst thing for plastic.
The fabric bits and pieces wear the worst in the sun. But, yeah. I agree. Yet I often let caution to the wind. So, for other peeps out there that want to keep your gear lasting throughout the years; keep it out of the sun, like Mike said.
PFD??
Good time to practice firing employees
Haha. You have no idea...
First
I rigged a beer keg into a live well, flipped my kayak over because I drank too much beer
HAHA! I can totally see me and my buddies doing that.
