The Hobie Pro Angler 12 combines a feature filled fishing platform with Hobie's revolutionary Mirage Drive system. It has everything you need to maximise your angling experience without sacrificing comfort, functionality or storage capabilities. This is a super stable fishing platform that allows you to stand-up and fish (providing its calm!). The Pro Angler 12 is propelled through the water using the revolutionary Mirage Drive 180 V2 system - full power pedal drive in forwards... and reverse! The drive system features 'Glide Technology' with roller bearings found on the major pivoting components of the drive, for a smoother and easier pedalling experience. The Mirage Drive 180 V2 comes equipped with the new Kick Up Turbo Fins. Kick Up fins offer worry-free pedalling - should you strike an object with the fins they simply kick up out of harms way to help reduce the risk of damage. Replaceable mounting boards can be found either side of the cockpit to allow easy mounting of fish finders, GPS units, down riggers and more.

The Pro Angler comes loaded with an impressive list of features. The fully adjustable Vantage ST seat keeps you comfortable for long sessions on the water, and includes Boa® System Lumbar Support. H-Rails feature either side of the cockpit and double up as a grab rail and an accessory mounting system. The PA12 even comes supplied with a H-Rail Cup Holder and 2 H-Rail Rod Racks! Further H-Rail accessories can easily be added. Accessory mounting platforms can be found at the bow end of the cockpit and feature the all-new H-Track for easy mounting of accessories, along with gear/tool hanging points.

The Pro Angler 12 has stacks of storage space. There is horizontal storage for up to six rods and two additional vertical rod holders. The large front hatch comes with a hatch liner - making a great place to store your catch for the table. A large rectangular hatch comes supplied with a Pivoting Tackle Management System incorporating 2 tackle boxes. A 8" twist lock hatch features at the stern for even more storage space, and if all that wasn't enough then there is a tackle storage space under the seat too! The large rear tank well/cargo area will easily take a Hobie Livewell or H-Crate for further bait and tackle storage.

Want to add electronics? The Pro Angler 12 is made for customising with fish finders and other electronics. The Hobie Guardian Retractable Transducer Shield allows you to raise and lower the transducer plate via a control cord in the cockpit - perfect for deploying large sidescan transducers after launching. The shield will automatically raise up if the transducer strikes an object. The shield will work with a wide range of transducer sizes and shapes. The Pro Angler also includes 3 x H-Plates with 2 x 3-Way Thru-Hull Cable Seals so that you can easily run the wiring through the hull and fit cable seals without drilling into the main hull.

Want to add motor power? Complete with 3 x motor mounting points at the stern, allowing you to easily add-on motor mounts from Bixpy, Torqueedo and Newport Vessel Motors. With a further motor mounting point at the bow, you can easily add a bow-trolling motor.

Other features include a retractable rudder system with dual steering from either side of the craft, a tracking skeg for improved straight line cruising, a 260cm 2-piece paddle with on-hull storage, front and rear carry handles, a sail mount and comes anchor trolley ready so you can easily set up an anchoring system.

The Pro Angler 12 really is a well kitted out fishing kayak. The PA12 is best suited to flat water conditions, ideally on lakes, rivers and canals, although can be used in calm coastal conditions too. The PA12 is also available in a limited edition Camo colour option.
