Yellow Yak

Fishing
#1

I found a great deal on a yellow OT loon, the dude needs space in his garage for a model train set!

I plan to use it for fishing and birding and wildlife photography. Am I going to scare the fish away with my banana boat? Can I paint it without ruining the plastic?

Paint won’t stick and the fish won’t

notice. Its all a blob to them. Leave it the color it comes and enjoy. The Loon is a great kayak and very stable platform for fishing and wildlife viewing/photography.

yep. And as far as yellow yaks go. . .
Old Town has about the best shade of yellow. Not too obnoxious, compared to a lot of others I’ve seen . . .

Mango
I have a brightly colored yak that is a mango color. I have been directly over the top of 2 red drum and did not scare them. They were about 3 feet down.

Mango
I was afriad my color would not be good for fishing, but i know better now. It didn’t seem to make any difference at all.

You won’t scare fish with a yellow kayak.

Yak Painting
Although there are a few “unless’s” involved, a plastic kayak can be painted, provided it is properly “prepped” and good quality material is used.
