Jackson Knarr FD Fishing Kayak Jackson

Jackson Kayak conquers the water with a completely new fishing platform for 2023. Introducing the Knarr FD, a kayak 100% dialed in on the challenges presented by oceans and large lakes. Bring on the surf, current, wind, tide, and the elements – these are the focus of our design.

Working with a team of expert big water, big game, and big tournament anglers, designer Tony Lee hand-shaped the hull with their challenges in mind. The Knarr is crafted for maximum speed, stability, handling surf, and tracking in any weather or water conditions. This incredible kayak combined with the new FD Mark IV makes this our most efficient pedal kayak ever.

The Knarr is the ultimate kayak for everything BIG. Designed with big oceans, large lakes, and long-distance travel at its core. The hull is shaped specifically to handle big surf, big waves, big currents, and strong winds. The Knarr was built to handle all that big water will throw at it.

• Jackson Kayak Designer Tony Lee hand-shaped the Knarr hull for maximum speed, stability, surf-handling, and straight-line tracking. It was specifically designed to handle big water where weather conditions can change quickly
• Trolling Motor Mount Location is a flat accessible area on the bow designed to easily accommodate bow-mounted trolling motors.
• Two flush-mounted rod holders behind the seat for easy access. Great for trolling for big fish!
• The lip inside the bow and stern hatch is raised above the level of the deck to prevent water from entering the hull in sporty conditions.
• When used with our new TriLock Side Stager, the Triple Tip Protectors allow you to store up to six rods. Your rod tips will be fully protected as you paddle through big water or surf into the beach.
• Our new Flex Drive Mark IV is the product of four years of constant evolution. The latest version of our amazing Flex Drive is faster, quieter, and more durable than ever before.
• Unique to Jackson Kayak, our TriTrak is a multi-functioning, top-loading track system that provides endless mounting options and adaptability. Perfect for electronics and accessories using YakAttack’s Top-Loading ® track technology.
• YakAttack Omega Rod Holder: This truly universal rod staging solution from YakAttack works flawlessly with spinning, casting, larger conventional reels, and yes – even fly rods of all sizes. Multiple modes allow anglers to easily stage rods for quick access or lock them in for maximum security.
