Why The BlueSky Angler is the USABassin’ Kayak Trail’s Top Prize
When we were approached at Jackson this year to provide the grand prize for the USA Bassin Kayak Trail this year, picking the perfect kayak for the winner was a challenge. Do you go with the Ultimate Kayak in our fleet, The Knarr FD? Do ya go with the latest river master in the Coosa X? Superior flexibility of the TakeTwo? Honestly, we were flush with great options. At the end of the day, we dug deep, and we decided you all would prefer to win the most unique boat we make.The BlueSky 360 Angler.
With every other manufacturer trying to play catch-up by making bigger, motor-ready, stable fishing platforms, the BlueSky Angler has come into its own. We want the best kayak angler in the US to have the ultimate boat. The choice could not be clearer.
So, why should you fight for this prize? This is why I love the BSB 360.
Unmatched Stability on the Water
Stability is one of the most important features we look for in a fishing kayak these days. Whether you're fishing or adjusting your position, you want to feel secure. The Bluesky Boatworks Angler is designed with two pontoons that provide exceptional stability, allowing you to fish comfortably and confidently, even in choppy conditions. This stability is especially crucial in tournaments where precision and focus are key to success.
Designed for Serious Fishing
We know you need more than just stability—you want a kayak that enhances your fishing experience. The Bluesky Boatworks Angler is packed with features that cater specifically to serious anglers. With ample storage space for rods, tackle, and gear, you'll have everything you need at your fingertips. The open deck layout allows for easy movement, and the elevated seat provides a better view of the water, giving you a strategic advantage in spotting fish. You want every advantage you can get. The Mark IV Flex Drive is proven fast and worry-free. Add a motor to the equation, and you will be the first to get to the good spots. Every time.
Ultimate Comfort for Long Days
I know. Fishing tournaments go on all day; comfort is essential to maintaining focus and energy. The Bluesky Boatworks Angler has an adjustable captain’s chair-style seating system that provides support during long hours on the water. The spacious design also means you can stretch out and move freely, so that you can stay at the top of your game from the first cast to the final weigh-in.
Built for Performance in Tournaments
In a competitive environment, speed and maneuverability are just as important as stability and comfort. The Bluesky Boatworks Angler is built for performance, with our Flex Drive Pedal system that lets you navigate efficiently across lakes, rivers, and coastal waters. This hands-free propulsion lets you focus on your fishing while staying in control even in wind and chop, giving you a distinct advantage over your competition. The Flex Drive is designed to kick up into a protected position when you are shallow or run into obstacles. No worries about damaging your drive or being stuck fixing a fin after a bang-up with an underwater branch.
Let’s be honest. Even the simplest tournament rig these days needs a trailer or a truck to get to the water. Advantage: BSB Angler. Built-in dropdown wheels get you down the boat ramp faster, and it was designed to fit in the back of virtually every pick-up truck on the market. So, arrive fully rigged, drop in, and get fishing while the competition is futzin’ around with their kayak cart.
Why the Bluesky Boatworks Angler?
With unmatched stability, performance-driven features, and all-day comfort, it gives you everything you need to perform at your best. Whether you're fishing in calm waters or navigating rougher conditions, the BSB Angler is designed to help you stay in control and catch more fish. We believe that, for tournament anglers looking to elevate their game, the Bluesky Boatworks Angler is simply unbeatable. I can’t wait to see what our winner does with this boat in their fleet next year.
The whole team here at Jackson Kayak thanks you all for letting us be a part of your adventure this year. Good luck to everyone, and we will see you on the water.
