How to Rig a Fishing Kayak - What You Actually Need - Native Hammer

🚨Sign up for our 1st ever Kayak Fishing Dads Retreat happening November 2026 on Santee Cooper 👉🏽 https://geni.us/KFDretreat In this video I break down my fully rigged Native Hammer setup and walk through what you actually need to get started vs what’s just nice to have. We cover everything from kayak fishing essentials like pedal drive systems, fish finder setup, battery setups, and rod storage, all the way to advanced upgrades like trolling motors, wiring, and full rigging options. If you’re a beginner kayak angler or looking to upgrade your current fishing kayak, this walkthrough will help you understand how to rig a fishing kayak the right way without wasting money. I’ll show you how I built my Native Hammer for real-world fishing, what gear is worth it, and what you can skip so you can build your own setup with confidence. 🔗 *GEAR MENTIONED* ⬇️ Hammer 1210 - https://geni.us/BAWyXtb Malone Microsport Offroad Trailer - https://geni.us/AJ4el Minn Kota Kayak Terrova - https://geni.us/Ze6ks Motor Deploy and retract kit - https://geni.us/XAoDT Yak power - https://geni.us/0nuEz19 50ah lithium battery - https://geni.us/OR30Y 165ah lithium battery - https://geni.us/BJROBT Garmin Echomap 93sv - https://geni.us/De13yWh Kayak Kushions -https://geni.us/gnVIO Ketch Board - https://ketchproducts.com/product/26-ketch-x-board/?ref=beardeddad Garmin LiveScope - https://geni.us/zhdAgkJ Marine Sniper Transducer Pole -https://geni.us/ffnuTx YakAttack BlackPak Pro - https://geni.us/ZJcs YakAttack ShortStak- https://geni.us/jHA0p YakAttack TracPak- https://geni.us/jBBt KFD Tackleboxes - https://geni.us/Soazcxr *Subscribe to The Hookset Weekly e-mail newsletter* - https://geni.us/nVKJ *Need affordable and reliable lithium power ⚡️ for your setup?* - https://www.litime.com/?ref=mcgrjzzb 💰Use Promo Code💰: BDF6 for 6% off your entire purchase *Yak Power Switching System* - https://tidd.ly/4s4CJ0f 💰DISCOUNT CODE💰: BDF5 for 5% off your entire purchase ⭐️ *Be a channel member here* ⭐️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr24BQ1cXV_bwEWqGwktxNA/join Please note, some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. ▶️ *Links to other helpful videos* ▶️ 🎥 21 Things you NEED for Fishing - https://youtu.be/Me8C95LKN1E 🎥 Top Kayaks for Big Guys Video: https://youtu.be/e2_2bEXCmxE 🎥 Top Kayak Fishing Mods - https://youtu.be/uWtEdZQKyFg 🎥 Worst Kayaks to Avoid - https://youtu.be/Cza_DyGK5g0 🎥 10 Kayaks under $1,500 - https://youtu.be/jOdnOKpa3fk 🎥 Why Pedal Kayaks are Dead - https://youtu.be/RPsukUo6PBM 🛟 *Top safety accessories for kayak fishing* 🛟: NRS Chinook OS PFD - https://amzn.to/4fKtKfS Onyx A/M 24 Auto Inflating PFD - https://amzn.to/4oK6jr3 NRS Pilot Rescue Knife - https://amzn.to/3XpKS2b YakAttack VISICarbon Pro 360 Light - https://amzn.to/4oozyhT 👍 *Follow my socials* : Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeardedDadFishing/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/BeardedDadFishing/ 👍 *Join us on Kayak Fishing Dads* : FB- https://www.facebook.com/groups/1474900446279062 ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS ⏱️ 0:00 Full Setup 0:29 Native Hammer 1:06 Trailer 1:45 Bow Motor 2:20 Front Hatch 4:20 Fish Finder 4:55 360 Camera 5:56 LiveScope 7:11 PFD 7:45 Seat 8:40 Motor Battery 9:20 Ketch Board 10:02 BlackPak Pro 12:03 Portable FFS 🎶 Music: Intro bumper: Song: CHENDA - Mr. Bully [NCS Release] Music provided by NoCopyrightSounds Free Download/Stream: http://NCS.io/MrBully Watch: http://youtu.be/vGf8pXk3HJs
