Hauling a Long Kayak in a Short Bed Truck and a Fishing Day
I show how I transport a big kayak in a short bed truck with a hitch hauler, then take you along on a typical fishing day.
What’s in this video
First I show how I transport a large, long kayak in a short bed pickup using the Kayak Hitch Hauler, a hitch bed extender.
Then it’s a typical kayak fishing day for me. I caught about 10 crappie and bluegill. I thought about cleaning them, but I let them go and grabbed fish tacos at a local brew and grill instead. Fun day, but then again any day on the water is fun.
Quick takeaways
- A hitch bed extender lets a short bed pickup carry a long kayak.
