*sheepish*

Some of us, if in a Kayak, would be a funnier looking picture than that guy's towing requirements!!! Plus, I can't get 12 poles, an ice chest, 2 tackle boxes, and all my spare clothes in a kayak........and it ain't got no livewell!!!

Looks a bit top heavy. Look out when he turns. I'd say it is a bit unsafe. Later RJD

Man you are what we call a kitchen sink fisherman

DW and I are Flyfishers so it's a single rod & fly vest -- although I HAVE been known to drag a crankbait through the water or drown a worm

BTW, the Hobie 'yacks have live wells

Yes, he certainly did. First heard that statement 20 or 30 years ago and never forgot it.

I'd like to know how they get that down from there, but it looks well thought out and quite secure. Pretty much fun climbing mountains!

That pontoon boat + accessories probably weighs 2-2.5K so the boat + passengers and other gear is close if not exceeding the CCC of the truck. Not to mention it looks like the boat is adding a few feet to the overhead clearance of the MoHo...low bridge ahead!
Are you pulling the F 150 as a Toad? This would allow space for lots of toys, big huge Traeger smoker, party grill, kayaks, bass boat, golf cart etc...

Actually Brian, given the beastliness of the EcoBoost, we were thinking of making the Berk our TOAD

The guy must be from Brandon or some place in Saskatchewan. As long as he used Saskatchewan seal skin bindings it would hold! Mike drop....
