I love this fishing kayak Pdl 120 . I just picked one up This Nov 2020 . This pedal version excercise your heart and legs. Don't get the motor version unless you 🤓Have leg issue s. Pro: 12 feet long , stable , plenty of room on back . Can seat one more person on back maybe 120 lb to 130lb. Will let my dad design a seating chair for one extra person. Durable plastic compared to a Hobbee . Tracking mount . Con: heavy but manageable . $2200plus tax ! 😂

I was looking to upgrade for a couple of years and studied many different brands and settled on the Old Town Topwater PDL 120. I can tell you that was an excellent choice! Funny thing is, just 3 weeks after my purchase, Old Town premiered the Sportsman model! Haha! Now I want to upgrade to the autopilot. But, I'll have to wait a year or 2 to do so. Thanks for the informative review! Rick

Well I had a front mount on my yak and spent thousands doing upgrades. After one season I sold it because it was annoying to load and setup and charge. Guess who sold that and got a sportsman 120 pdl 😂? Just imagine loading a 200 pound yak and weeds. It’s a pain in the butt.

I believe that third rod holder next to the seat on the left is just a docking Holder for when you catch a fish and bring it in do you have a place to put your ride when working on the hook because that’s pretty much all it’s good for is when you’re rigging your line LOL.

I have been looking for a good /kayak for south florida fishing. This Old town 120 PDL seems to fill in all the blanks for a good platform . Great Video and information by the way. I only wish the front storage had a large pull out tray instead of just giving you a hole to the hull. But for th price you have to look at what there giving you for the money. Im pretty sure after looking at many types of kayak with a pedal drive ill be buying this one. Thanks for the video !

@CaptChrisCanning

Yes if you are in super super shallow water the drive will hit the bottom, but i never have a problem with it. I have had to lift the drive and paddle every once in a blue moon, and it's only to get over a very shallow spot. Being honest with you here, but it is nowhere near a deal breaker.

Is this the newest 2020 version (Old Town changing names has been confusing a bit). Have you been in other kayaks to compare stability? Specifically have you been in native kayaks to compare? How tall are you because you talk about your height and losing space on deck. What about weight of kayak? How was it to get up into trailer/vehicle? Thanks.
@CaptChrisCanning
3 жыл бұрын
This is the 2019 model. All they did to the 2020 is make more trunk space and add better deck paddling. Stability on this kayak is the best, natives don’t even compare tbh. Loading and unloading is very simple on this kayak. Pretty easy by yourself. Go check out my salty PDL content 👍🏼

Hello Chris how you doing man. That was a nice review of the 120. Are you thinking about upgrading my kayak to the pedal drive 120. I have a Question? I have big very very wide feet sz14 4 EEEE with very fat wide toe and now I'm wondering are those pedals wide enough for somebody who has a wide foot and is it comfortable enough to Pedal barefooted👣all day. They don't make a shoes wide enough for my foot so I have to kayak barefooted 👣. The kayak I have the foot brace are too small and my feet keep falling off of them because how wide they are. I am a big guy so I need some type of foot support while kayaking. I would go demo this kayak but there's no place where I live that demo kayak's. Take it easy man and have a good one and Happy Father's Day to you.

Never understood the gripe about a minimal amount of water being in the cockpit of a kayak. Now a crazy amount of water that didn't drain out, gripe away. But old towns drain really well. If you don't want to get your tootsies getting wet while in a boat that's in water? Pick a new hobby.
