The Catch 420 has all of the performance characteristics of the Xstream 420 but has been 'decked out' with loads of extra accessories giving you the ultimate fishing kayak. After the popular success of the Catch 390 fishing kayak the team at Mission Kayaking have been road testing their latest model, the Catch 420. The Catch 420 was unveiled with the aim of providing a longer, faster and features packed, yet still highly comfortable alternative to the Catch 390. The latest addition to the Mission Kayaking fishing range is 4.2m long with a bow that cuts through water like a knife and a seating configuration that is shaped to fit your body and therefore provides continuous contact with the kayak allowing for optimum paddling performance. Paddle tests so far have found the speed of the Catch 420 to equal that of many other longer fishing kayaks on the market and the tracking is unbelievably straight even for novice paddlers. Although the waterline length gives the kayak speed, there is still plenty of stability, rocker and volume in the boat to make navigating surf a breeze. The Catch 420 is packed with practical and useful features for fishermen. The front hatch has a bulkhead so provides a valuable storage area for trolleys and the likes. To ensure there is plenty of space for storing your catch the tank well is deep and long and works well with both the Insulated Tank well cover and/or Insulated Fish Bag. In the cockpit recessed storage areas keep your gear on hand but safe from going overboard or cluttering up your deck. Between your knees is a 10” hatch and forward of this an innovative wet storage area. Designed to take a fish finder the lid provides protection from waves, rain and sun and the transducer can be mounted directly into the custom scupper directly underneath. The transducer scupper hole has been designed to fit both the Hummingbird and Lowrance/Eagle transducers. A comfortable seat, deck bungee’s, dual paddle parks, 2 flush mounted rod holders, 2 rod parks, 4 D-ring attachment points, deck lines and rear hatch with bulkhead are also included. The team at Mission Kayaking spend a lot of effort perfecting the look and finish of all our boats and we are confident the Catch 420 doesn’t disappoint in this regard. Moulded handles add to the sleek lines and make lifting the kayak’s 28kg easy and comfortable. Overall this is a fantastic fast yet very stable kayak perfect for fishing. The Catch 420 is available in both ruddered and un-ruddered options.
