2019 Hobie Pro Angler 12 Walkthrough and Review (Is it Worth the Price Tag?)
Check out my UPDATED and rigged to fish walkthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUUiZFKDVAs&t=85s
Get a closer look at the 2019 Hobie Pro Angler 12. I personally LOVE this boat (technically a kayak). After over 100 trips on this bad boy, I wanted to post about some of my likes and dislikes, and show some of the ins and outs of a boat like this. Yes, the price tag may be high, but just watch this video and you’ll see why it might be worth it. Here are my pros and cons:

PROS:
- 99% of upgrades require 0 holes drilled in the boat!
- The seat is the most comfortable seat I have next to my couch. Oh, and it comes off the boat easily for camping fun!
- The hull is super thick and therefore pretty much bullet proof
- Pedaling the mirage drive is easy, quiet and fast
- The front dry hatch is huge and there is space underneath for batteries
- Rod tubes make rod storage and travel super simple
- Mounting a transducer is super easy and it’s retractable so you can avoid damage. Check out the Hobie install video HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3yuBti9Wmo
- The rudder system is retractable and durable AF
- Bungees in the rear of the boat help to keep your tackle crate secure
- Stability is out of this world and you can stand and fish with ease
Cons
- The rear dry hatch is borderline useless
- Molded rod holders are hardly secure for trolling
- Most of the things you WANT are aftermarket and they ain’t cheap
- YOU MUST HAVE WHEELS TO MOVE THIS BEAST
- The wheels can be a pain in the arse to put on when getting off the water
- The Mirage 180 drive is a pain to turn around in tighter or high current/wind situations
- Um... It’s EXPENSIVE $$$$
Overall, I love this boat and highly recommend it to ANYONE with the expendable income and kayak fishing experience!
