Nate spent the better part of yesterday and some of today (and some more tomorrow) working on this. The Adventure Island from Hobie Kayaks only comes in red or yellow…or does it? Turns out the factory had produced a few Ivory Dune colored upgrade kits for the brave owners of a Dune Adventure kayak. It [...]
The new Hobie Pro Angler (not a kayak) presents all new opportunities for rigging.

Friend of Kayak Fish Nation and OEX Co-owner Brent Torgeson walks us through the steps to install a flush mount rod holder in Malibu Kayak’s new fishing machine – the X-13.
We’re putting this flushmount behind the seat on the port side. There is enough room back there for two as you can see in the [...]
