BigCatch saddles use oversized cradles with soft rubber pads that conform to a range of hull shapes, plus felt pads to help the boat slide on. Universal hardware mounts tool-free to Yakima StreamLine, RoundBar and HD Bars and most other round, square and factory crossbars. The set covers front and rear for one kayak.

Good to know
- Measure your crossbar spread; BigCatch needs at least 27 in between bars.
- Check your roof and crossbar load ratings too, since a heavy fishing kayak can exceed them even when the saddles are rated to 150 lb.
KayakDIY take: Wide fishing hulls need a cradle that actually matches their shape. For more gear for those boats, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
