Sportsman PDL 106 Fishing Kayak Features





Frequently Asked Questions About the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106

Who is the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 best suited to?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 suits anglers who want hands-free pedal power in a compact hull rather than a long one.

It is 10 ft 6 in long, 36 in wide and 107 lb assembled, and it carries 343 lb of angler and gear.

Shorter hulls can be useful on tighter water, while longer hulls generally hold a line better over distance. Conditions, load and experience affect both.

How much weight can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 carry?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 is rated at 450 lb total and 343 lb usable.

Usable capacity is the total minus the 107 lb assembled boat, which is already the 83 lb hull plus the 18 lb pedal console and the 6 lb seat. Do not deduct those a second time.

That is 41 lb less than the 12 ft Sportsman PDL 120 carries, so check a heavy rig against it.

How does the PDL Drive on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 work?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 uses the PDL Drive, a propeller unit turned by your legs with instant forward and reverse and no gear shift.

It is purely mechanical, so nothing charges and nothing runs flat, and the 18 lb console lifts out of its well.

An ePDL+ RetroFit is available for this model, adding power assist with its own 36V 6.5Ah battery and separate runtime figures. Our pedal-drive comparison guide covers the pedal systems.

Can the drive be removed from the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 for shallow water?

Yes, the 18 lb pedal console on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 lifts out of its well, which is how you deal with shallows, weed and loading.

No minimum operating depth is published for this model, so we will not invent one. Judge it on the water and pull the drive before the propeller can touch bottom.

Clear line and weed from the prop at the end of the day.

Can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 be paddled as well as pedaled?

Yes, and a paddle should be aboard the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 on every trip.

Shallows, timber and thick weed are exactly where the drive comes out and the paddle takes over, and it is your backup if the propeller fouls.

No paddle is included with the kayak, and no life jacket either. Size a paddle against the 36 in beam rather than buying by price.

Can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 be used in saltwater?

Yes, the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 can be fished in saltwater, and its PDL Drive is a saltwater-ready design.

Rinse the hull, the drive and the propeller with fresh water at the end of every salt trip, working the drive through its range while you rinse.

Let it dry before storage, and give any hardware you have added yourself the same attention.

How is the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 transported and stored?

Take the 18 lb pedal console and 6 lb seat out of the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 first, leaving an 83 lb hull from 107 lb assembled.

Roof capability is decided by the lowest of your vehicle roof rating, crossbar rating and rack rating, so confirm all three. A kayak cart covers the walk from the car.

Store it shaded and evenly supported.

What warranty applies to the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106?

Coverage on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 is split by component and the periods differ.

The hull and deck carry limited lifetime coverage for the original retail purchaser. The PDL Drive is covered for five years. Accessories such as paddles and life jackets are covered for one year, and coverage does not transfer to a second owner.

Claims begin with Old Town or the applicable component manufacturer, under the Old Town warranty terms.

How should the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 be looked after?

Rinse the Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 and its drive after every trip, and inspect the propeller, drive shaft and metal fittings, especially after saltwater exposure.

Clear any line or weed from the propeller before the drive goes back into its well.

Store the hull shaded and evenly supported rather than resting on one hard point.

My wife and I both have Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 Kayaks.

These kayaks are excellent and we enjoy peddling them around the Channel Island Harbor with our dog sitting behind the bucket seat.

Haven’t used yet . Seem to be in good condition. $150 is a little steep for cardboard, a thick bag and some wrap.

Great canoe, great purchase experience!

After much research, my wife and I decided to purchase two Old Town Sportsman PDL 106’s. We could only find one locally in the steel color and decided to order this one in the ember color. We have yet to set sail on them, but the quality and features do not disappoint and neither did Eco Fishing Shop’s shipping and packaging. While not the speediest, the delivery service was reasonably expeditious and met expectations. The kayak was well packaged and appears completely unharmed. We will likely turn to EFS for outfitting and accessorizing our new rides as well.

Old Town Sportsman 106 PDL

This is a great kayak. At just over 10 feet it fits inside my minivan with no issues. I wanted one that I could transport without a trailer or have to lift to car top. The weight is not bad at all. I really like that I can carry it right into my basement to store. The build quality is fantastic. Shipping was fast and the protective wrap ensured it was perfect at delivery. This is my second kayak from Eco Fishing shop and they did not disappoint. I have a Feelfree Lure II that my wife and I use, but I really wanted one for me to rig for just fishing and this Old Town Sportsman fits the bill perfectly. Very satisfied.

Love My PDL106

Absolutely love this kayak. Perfect size for me since I don’t carry a lot of gear and I can load in the bed of my truck without a bed extender. Handles like a champ paddling or peddling. The hull and pedal drive are top quality. Love it!

First let me start by saying this is my second purchase from eco fishing shop . Originally bought a Moken 10 pdl . Nice boat for the money but I always wanted the 106 pdl. So I pulled the trigger and just like the first purchase, delivery and customer service was top notch .

CANT SAY ENOUGH GREAT THINGS

Cant say enough great things about this shop. From the original online kayak order, delivery, follow up, parts request etc., they have been just awesome. I just got into the sport and couldn't be any happier with there professionalism and help along the way. You've earned my business for life. Thanks again Perry and the Ecofishing Team.

Love my new kayak. The staff was so helpful with my order. I had ordered the 120 PDL by mistake and the staff changed the order for me. All I took was a 5min call. Awesome service! Delivery was great. The delivery company called ahead of time which helped me prepare for the delivery. Kayak was in great condition when delivered.

Worth the money!

Me and my brother both started off on typical paddle kayaks, never thought twice about a peddle kayak but my dad soon convinced me and my bro to get one. Game changer, so much I can do with this kayak. Being able to have ur hands free allows you to fish while fighting current or wind. Handles waves like a pro and is freaking stable. I can stand and fish or even jump in this thing, I’d be falling out before this thing before it flipped. 5 stars

First fishing kayak

Love the kayak. After lots of research, I settled on the 106 pdl. Before taking it out I installed an Anchor Wizard. I’ve been on a kayak before and know how much you get blown around by the wind. And I couldn’t imagine myself having a good time fishing having to paddle and trying to cast at the same time. Maybe at some point I’ll install a motor. But this kayak with the anchor system makes it possible to get on the water and fish where I want to fish. Highly recommend.

Fantastic starter kayak

Perfect size for starting out kayak not to long fits great in the back of a truck or car top. Easy to set up onto the water it's a dream .

Love my PD 106

Can’t say enough good things about my experience with Perry and the gang at ECO Fishing. My experience from the order to the delivery of my “bad ass” Old Town PD 106 was unsurpassed by any local dealers or other options like Amazon. Living in a small town in the Rocky Mountains is always a challenge getting affordable fishing gear or equipment. I now understand all the 5 star ratings I reviewed before making my purchase. Again. Thanks guys I am loving the yak and loving the service I got from you. “Do what you do”! Thanks for giving us mountain folks a great price point and options on your products. “Peace out” 😂

Very impressed!!

Was skeptical to order at first considering I live in North Carolina and was nervous about receiving it damaged since it got shipped across a few states. Everything showed up in perfect condition! Was very impressed how they handled everything and would highly recommend on ordering from them!! Great communication when I contacted them before I ordered and they gave good shipping details.
