I have been going back and forth looking at this Kayak vs Spending $400-$500 more for the Feelfree Moken 10v2. I keep coming back to your video and I feel I can get everything I need with this kayak just as much as the Feelfree Moken. The only pro's the Moken has for me is the wheel in the keel and being able to stand in it, but honestly I would never stand to fish on a Kayak anyway. Your video has shown me that I can get everything I need much cheaper than buying some high end Kayak. And the extra money I save, I can use to purchase the extra gear I would want anyway such as an anchor trolly, scotty rod holders, an 8 inch hatch and more, and Still Spend Less than buying the Moken. The Teton is much more affordable, decent quality, has universal tracks, more deck space, and lighter to carry on my own. It's perfect for someone who just fishes occasionally or for recreation. THANK YOU for your review and helping me make my final decision to pull the trigger!

I have watched a ton I mean a ton of kayak mod videos. My opinion yours has made the most sense because of the basic kayak which probably meets most people who are watching this type of videos. Thank you for what you do, I have subscribed and look forward to other videos.

good stuff...I've done some similar things with mine. I will say, the cup holder on the track mount is a must have. Mine has a slot on side for phone but I don't use it for that...I slide pliers and some times scissors in there. Cup holder big enough for a nice size yeti mug for coffee in AM or for some other cold drink in an insulated holder. If I'm fishing and it cool out and no drink is needed, I can toss lures in there. I used pool noodles under the seat. It raised it up a bit and provides some cushion. I may go to 2x4 as the pool noodles get smashed down over time. All in all, it's worked well and provides a bit more storage. Rod holder on other side for track mount. Crate in back and I used your bungee pass through system. I have a basic anchor trolley just using caribener to the carry strap. Plan to install a permanent solution soon but it's worked well. I anchor mostly in mud or sand so I used a rubber coated 8lb dumbbell. Got mine for $400 before prices went up and it's been money well spent.

Great video boss! Just bought a kayak for myself for Christmas and gathering ideas to have ready for spring

Thanks for this video man I recently just got a 400 dollar kayak and loved it until I saw everyone else 1000+ dollar set ups and rigs and I felt discouraged BUT this right here showed me how possible and easy it actually is to make my kayak the way I want it to!! Thank you sooo much for this I wanted a fish finder and all this kind of gear and some people said it might not be the best because of stability for your kayak and I said I guess I don’t really see where your coming from because I have to force flip my kayak to make it unstable! Yours is very similar to mine I have an Axe Elite 100 kayak and I have the tracks and space for all the gear you mentioned! I’m gonna give it my best thank you

I’ve been kayaking a couple years now and let me tell you that fly swatter is under rated man I’ve added one to my setup! Horse flies hurt!!

[fishingforfun]

I have a Teton too and I found you can take the bungees and wrap them back around the hooks to keep it away from your crate and then make it entrance secure by little screws and rubber washers

[dotmars]

Great video! Gave me some solid pointers for my own setup!

[LunarVision]

I appreciate the video. I have the same yak and did put dry storage in front and back. Using an S-biner to attach the dry storage was so simple yet so genius. I'm off to search for a 2x4...

[felipebm]

Hey great setup do u have any problem reaching behind the seat. To grab a lure box from the crate ?

[TheMichiganFisherman]

Great job man.

Very unique how you utilized your bungees. I may try that.

I’m about to do another video on mine and I’ve been wanting to do the block of wood for awhile but my question is how much does it affect your stability?

The reason I want to do the block of wood is that if it DOES get rough and it does affect stability, I could easily remove it on the fly.

Again, great setup 👍

Do you have a link for that fish finder/transducer mount that fits in the rail there? I would love to get one. Also how long does the battery last you on a full charge?

[alexwilhelm]

do you ever have issues with the fish finder getting in the way while paddling?

[yzfrtoo]

What is the size milk create do you have?

[davboston]

I though I read in the instructions anchors were not to be used with this kayak. Or most kayaks?

[bluffcitytri]

Nice setup! Tons of good ideas here. Are you able to stand in this kayak or do you fish from the seated position?

[EscapingTheCity]

Do you have a link to that dry box? Looking for a decent one about that size

[aidenh]

I’m looking to get my first fishing kayak and want to make sure it’s a good one for the price (looking for less than $500) what do you recommend? I am juggling between a few including the lifetime teton angler and the pelican sentinal 100x

[jterry]

I’m a bigger guy 240 on good days do you think this kayak would do good for me? I’m use it mostly for hunting but I might use it for fishing to of course
