Hobie Mirage 360 Pro Angler 12 Fishing Kayak
The Hobie PA 12 with MirageDrive 360 and Kick-Up fins is jammed-packed with features to provide the ultimate comfort and fishability. If you're serious about kayak fishing, then you'll want a kayak that has it all and does it all. Efficiency and maneuverability are the names of the game, so don't let your kayak get in between you and your next big catch. T The revolutionary 360 Drive Technology allows you to move effortlessly in any direction. While the Kick-Up fins let you powerfully navigate through shallow water as they retract and deflect off the bottom, rocks, and brush. This dynamic is unparalleled whether you are a competitive fisherman or want the most out of your time on the water. An easy-to-maneuver kayak on and off the water as it is has the ability to be stored in the back of the truck or on top of your vehicle easier than its larger counterpart.
The design of this kayak allows for easier management, from the easy installation of the 360 Drive to the spacious cockpit and plentiful storage. It'll be challenging to find an unnecessary feature. As you sit comfortably in the fully adjustable Vantage ST seating, you will have complete accessibility to all your pulleys and the Guardian Retractable Transducer Shield. As you stand up, not only will the stability of this kayak withstand your casting and movement, but you’ll also notice the grip pads at the bottom of your feet provide traction and grip even in the wettest environments. A very maneuverable and nimble kayak directed towards the angler that likes to fish up tight to cover such as laydowns, docks, and shoreline.
As an angler, storage is a premium because of all our gear. Luckily the PA 12 is designed with multiple storage options to accommodate every angler. Starting up front, featuring a large hatch with a removable liner that is big enough to store anything from fish to ice. Heading to the bottom of the cockpit, you'll find a sealed, waterproof rectangular hatch with pivoting tackle management system to fit multiple tackle boxes right at your feet. On both sides of the kayak, you will notice the mounting plates and the H-Rail system located on each side. These features allow you to add and customize your kayak from various Hobie accessories. No drilling or cutting is required as the H-Rail accessories adjust at a 30-degree angle that slides and locks wherever you need along the rail. One of the most advanced and convenient features is the built-in horizontal rod holders. This fishing kayak is designed to fit 3 rods on each side while easily fitting many more. This design allows you to neatly stow your rods and keep them out of harm's way from low-hanging trees and other pieces of cover.
As we move back to the cargo area, much is within arms reach, allowing you to store and access more. Behind your seat, the wide-open cargo area easily fits your fishing crate, cooler, livewell, and even a kayak cart with this open platform design. The integrated bungees on the kayak will lock these items into place, ensuring a secure fit on the water. Along the cargo area side sits two paddle holders holding each half of your 2-piece paddle, stowing them neatly out of the way while still accessible. The 8" twist and seal hatch behind the cargo area features a hinged lid and corkscrew mechanism to stay waterproof and sealed while providing access to the hull. Rubber Mesh Stowage Pockets are located on each side of the kayak and the back of the Vantage seat to house items needed for quick access.
After years of innovation and craftsmanship in the kayak fishing world, you can count on Hobie’s quality and design to concentrate on the essential aspect, fun on the water!

MirageDrive 360
The Hobie MirageDrive 360 with Kick-Up Fins is the most advanced Mirage Drive yet. This unique and popular design makes every angler more efficient with its smooth and easy-to-use design. This 360 Drive is easy to install as it simply drops and locks into place. The design is simple; your fins will rotate in any direction you choose, meaning you have complete control of the direction you want to go. You can be more precise as you line up your next cast for pinpoint accuracy. As an angler, boat positioning is crucial in many scenarios. The 360 design allows you to become a human trolling motor, providing complete control to maneuver in and around the cover, setting up more opportunities for your next cast. Which in turn means more fish.
The easy-to-install 360 Drive simply drops and locks into place; no unnecessary hardware is required. The peddling is similar to that of a bike. The setting on the peddles should allow you to achieve a full stroke with your legs almost fully straight. Fully adjustable cranks easily fit many different size users providing full customization and comfort. The Kick-Up Fins revolutionize your speed and navigational ability. Now, as you come into contact with the bottom or a piece of cover, the fins kick up and deflect without slowing you down. This boat comes with Hobie’s Turbo Square Tip Fins, the strongest and most powerful fins available. These features combine to make your kayak the most maneuverable kayak on the market. This technology opens a new world of navigational possibilities for your angling experience. From open ocean to shallow freshwater, the 360 Mirage Drive will conquer it all.
