Best Fish Finders for Kayak Fishing
It is easy to get wide eyes when dreaming of your perfect kayak setup. We see some of the craziest setups around in our line of work. But, those kinds of advanced setups with all the bells & whistles are not necessary for everyone. Sometimes, it is easier to take fellow kayakers' word for it rather than a retailers. That's why we created the Kayak Anglers Resource - a community of kayak anglers who share their experiences, ask questions and give honest reviews and assessments of kayaks and accessories. We can share our expertise until we are blue in the face, but a fellow anglers words often mean more.
Here a few great examples of how kayak anglers are helping other kayak anglers make better decisions on their purchases:

A one-of-a-kind retractable, two-piece pedal drive that gives the angler direct access to the prop, three different propeller deployment zones and a self-retracting upon impact dagger arm, the Mark IV Flex Drive is a versatile shallow or big water pedal drive that lets kayakers go where other propeller drive kayaks cant' with zero worries about impact with unforeseen debris.
