Fish Schtick Video Short: Hobie Mirage Pro Angler

Subscribe to The Fish Schtick Podcast on iTunes

This offering from Hobie is more than a kayak – it’s a boat (don’t mind Teeg’s bungle at the beginning).

Morgan Promnitz walks us through what makes it revolutionary, and why it won “Best In Show” at this year’s ICAST.

The Pro Angler comes loaded with features that put it in a class by itself. With a capacity of over 600 lbs., you can bring it all. Protected horizontal storage for up to six rods and two additional vertical rod holders. Space for 13 Plano® tackle boxes, three in-hull storage compartments, plus an additional large on-deck storage area for an optional livewell or cooler. You get a fully-adjustable, breathable Cool Ride seat, a work area/cutting board and replaceable mounting boards on each side to attach your fish finder, GPS, lights, or downriggers. The Pro Angler is powered by the Hobie MirageDrive™, which allows you to enjoy fishing without the noise and expense of a gas engine.

More on this sweet machine right here at the Hobie website.
