Description

The best-selling kayak fishing paddle on the market, the Angler Classic is the staple of durability on the water.

Features
  • Smoother, larger and stronger blade, providing more horsepower and control with every stroke. The improvements result in a smoother forward stroke with a stiffer feel, quieter entry and exit, and less chances for flutter.
  • Upgraded fiberglass + nylon blade material is stronger and thicker, making it more durable and robust long-term.
  • Fiberglass-reinforced nylon blades are designed for forgiveness and just the right amount of flex, keeping the kayak moving efficiently even with extra gear slowing you down. 
  • 102.5 sq. inch blade it the ideal size for horsepower and control with the heavily loaded fishing kayaks, but not overly fatiguing, heavy, or flexible.
  • 100% fiberglass shaft is durable and strong, yet lighter than commodity aluminum, so it will hold up in the most uncertain of conditions while not draining all your energy. Fiberglass is also valued for being warm, plus flexible and forgiving when compared to aluminum.
  • The shaft is ovalized where the hands go for more comfort and control, and to limit the chances for blisters.
  • Snap-button ferrule is fixed length plus tight fitting, secure, and long-lasting. No wobbling or inefficiencies like commodity systems. It’s not as technical as some modern ferrule systems, but one of the more robust options. Comes with 3-hole for adjustable feather angles of 0° or 60°, left or right hand control.
  • New carbon ferrule insert is light, tight, and right for the long haul. This is a sizable upgrade over plastic or glass ferrule inserts.
  • Available in two vibrant colors: Tidal Blue for the discrete approach and Electric Green for safety and standing out.
  • Built-in hook retrieval system for retrieving a snagged lure
  • 40-inch tape measure on shaft is a sizing guide, allowing you to verify catches on the spot 
  • Proudly hand built in Osceola, Wisconsin, USA, by a team of paddlers and outdoor enthusiasts.

*Tape measure is not an official measuring tool for competitive angling or to determine the legality of a catch. Tape measure print may vary in accuracy due to the manufacturing process.

About shipping this item

Heads up: this is one of our larger items, so a couple of things work a little differently here:

Outbound shipping is a flat fee based on the item's weight (you'll see it in your cart before checkout), so our free shipping on orders $150+ doesn't apply here.

Returns are still welcome within 30 days, with one exception: oversized items have a flat $40 return shipping fee. If you send it back, that $40 comes out of your refund, exchange, or store credit.

If your item shows up damaged, defective, or it's something on our end, we've got it. Return shipping is always on us.

Read the full return policy details here.

Questions before you order? Call us at (817) 823-0010 or email hospitality@mountainsports.com. We're always happy to talk it through.
