Incredible stability
The compromise when trying to offer greater stability with a wider kayak is more drag and less efficiency but the Profish GT has overcome this with the cleaver hull design. At 82cm wide, reverse chinned hull and low set seat position Viking have achieved the same stability as wider kayaks but without compromising efficiency.
The flattened foot wells and higher volume nose means you can comfortably stand to sight cast or throw a cast net. The flatter hull draws less water allowing the kayak to paddle over shallower waters and At 3.6m long with a small amount of rocker its super-efficient to maneuver in skinny water or when repositioning for a cast.
Tackle management – storage
The Tackle Pod is your all in one storage solution for tackle, fishfinder, batteries, Railblaza rod holders and more. “Load & Go” whether its packing the day before or unpacking from a trip, simply leave everything in the removable Tackle Pod load in the car and go.

Optional Features
Optional Rudder
As with all Viking Profish kayaks the GT comes rudder ready meaning it’s an easy addition, no drilling required. Whilst not essential for the already easy to maneuver Profish GT, the rudder will give greater directional control in situations like drifting or running with the river, paddling across current or wind & wind chop. The advantages of the Viking angler rudder being flush with the keel is you are less likely snag on lines or weed and reduces the chance of damage to the rudder in the shallows
Optional Bixpy Motor
The Profish GT with its key design features and extremely durable build is a fishing kayak designed to last you through years of adventures. If you want the best of hands free and the Tackle Pod management system then the addition of the Bixpy motor to the Viking rudder is the closest thing to true hands free fishing available on the market.
