Upgrade Your Hobie Seat!


How do you make a great boat even better? Upgrade the seat! I have been using this seat for the last 2 months - and I can honestly say that it has revolutionized my fishing experience in my Hobie Revolution. Ha - didn't mean to create a pun!

My biggest problem in fishing from my Hobie Revolution has been where to put my tackle. This new seat not only made me more comfortable - but also offers storage for all the tackle that I like to bring with me. I can easily reach any of the 5 plano boxes (included) that fit right into the seat. The built in rod holders turned out to be a suprise as well. I REALLY like keeping my spare rod in the seat rod holder as I never have to worry about banging it with the rod that I am casting.

Recycled Tarp Hats!


EARTH-FRIENDLY FASHION TOUGHER THAN REAL LIFE.

The Real Deal is a line of Tarp hats are handmade in a remote small town in rural Brazil from recycled canvas tarps that once stretched across the beds of cross-country cargo trucks hauling open freight. These unique hats use recycled tarps in an effort to cut down on the wasting of the world’s resources – and yes, also because they happen to look really, really cool.

The fabric in the Real Deal Brazil hats most likely has traveled from the Amazon out to São Paulo and back again, slogging through sudden deluges of blinding rain, and being baked and broiled in scalding heat, whipped by harsh salt winds, assaulted by road debris and sometimes even stamped upon in Portuguese with waterproof black ink.

Which is to say there’s nothing you can do to these one-of-a-kind hats and bags that hasn’t already been done before. So don’t worry about taking care of this hat - it will take care of you.

And that’s not hype, that’s real. The Real Deal.

Stealth Your Kayak



One of the most overlooked things in kayak fishing is how quiet you are in your boat. Imagine being in a swimming pool underwater. Now have someone 40 feet away tap quietly on a kayak. The volume of this sound is shocking.

One of the best things about fishing in a kayak is that it is stealthy. Unfortunately many kayak fishermen ruin their stealth by seemingly innocent actions: Setting down your paddle, putting a rod down on the deck, pulling up your anchor, setting a plano box on the deck of your boat.

There are two solutions, and the smart kayak fisherman will employ both:
1) Pay attention to being quiet when touching your boat with hard objects: rods, pliers, Boga grips, Plano boxes, paddles, anchors.
2) Utilize Stealth Foam in any areas of your boat that these items come in contact with. This specially made foam is durable, won't absorb water and has adhesive built right in. You can choose to go with pre-cut sets from Wilderness Systems or Native Watercraft - or you can purchase the foam in 24" wide pieces that can be as long as 80". Buying the bulk foam saves you money and allows you to custom cut the pieces to suit your stealth strategy.

Columbia Blood n Guts Clothing


When you're Kayak Fishing, you are one-on-one with the fish. This means fish in your lap, fish in your arms, fish pretty much everywhere. Columbia Blood 'N Guts clothing is specifically designed to resist and wash out stains. The treatment provides two lines of defense to prevent and remove stains. Initial liquid stains bead up and roll off Blood 'N Guts treated fabric. For stains that penetrate the first line of defense, the Blood 'N Guts formula also works to release stains with agitation and soap in the washing machine.
