Fishing Kayak Accessories

Fishing kayak accessories turn a solid kayak into your personal fishing machine – without the hassle or huge cost.

Most anglers start simple: a couple of extra rod holders, a decent mount for the fish finder, and something to lean on when you stand up to cast or sight-fish. That’s it. Suddenly you’re fishing longer, spotting more, and bringing home more keepers.

Must-Have Fishing Kayak Accessories Most People Add First

• Flush-mount rod holders: keep rods secure and out of the way while you paddle or fight fish. The Feelfree round ones drop straight in and lock tight – no snags, no drilling needed on most models.
• Uni-Track plates and the Uni-Bar (or Deluxe version): create a proper dashboard right in front of you. Mount the sounder, phone, extra rods, camera – whatever you actually use. Slide things on and off in seconds, no tools.
• Stand-up bar: gives you that extra confidence when you’re on your feet scanning the water. Adjustable height, padded lean area, and it even holds your paddle while you cast.
• High-back Gravity seat upgrade: makes long days feel short. If your back starts talking after a few hours, this usually shuts it up.
• Rudder kit: sharpens tracking in wind or current – especially useful on wider fishing kayaks when you’re pedalling or just drifting with the breeze.
• Tackle trays and crate bags: keep everything organised and dry behind the seat. No more digging through a messy milk crate when the bite turns on.

What Real Anglers Usually Rig

Most keep it clean: two extra rod holders up front, Uni-Bar across the cockpit for the fish finder and a spinning rod, stand-up bar for balance, and a camo crate bag in the tankwell. That setup works from calm lakes to moving water and doesn’t turn the kayak into a Christmas tree.

Everything bolts straight onto the built-in tracks on Lure, Moken or Dorado models – takes minutes, zero permanent mods.

Grab the fishing kayak accessories that suit the kind of days you actually picture yourself having. You’ll be out there before you know it.
