The problem

What holds kayak anglers back

Exposed propsA trolling motor's prop hangs below the hull, where sticks, weeds and the bottom can catch it.
Drives below the hullPedal drives also sit in the water column, so shallow or weedy water means lifting the drive and paddling.
Gas enginesFuel to carry, oil changes and engine care, and some waters don't allow gas motors at all.

These keep you out of the best shallow, messy water, and have you working on gear instead of fishing.

Our answer

Electric jet power, built into the hull

No prop, nothing below the hull

FluxJet built the world's first electric jet-powered fishing kayak. Water comes in through an intake on the bottom of the hull, an impeller accelerates it, and it leaves through a steerable nozzle flush with the stern. There's no exposed prop or pedal fin, and the kayak runs in about 4 inches of water.

Simple electric power

No gas, no oil, no exhaust. Drop in a standard marine battery from 12V to 60V and go. Steer with foot pedals and set your speed with the side-mounted throttle dial.

Who builds it

From underwater robots to fishing kayaks

Our team has over 20 years of experience designing underwater robotics and marine propulsion systems for deep-sea exploration and industrial applications. That's where the patented FluxJet jet drive comes from, and the electric jet fishing kayak is the result. Every FluxJet is assembled to order in Sacramento, California. Read our story.

Fewer snags

No exposed prop or shaft to catch sticks, logs or weeds. In thick vegetation, slow down and use reverse to help clear the intake. Keep the intake off sand and gravel: sand or small rocks pulled into the drive can still damage it.

On the water fast

Your kayak arrives with the motor, wiring and electronics installed. Attach the seat, foot pedals and 360° light, drop in your battery, and launch. No gas to mix.

Reach shallow water

Get into shallow coves and tight spots big boats can't reach, and launch from beaches, riverbanks or rocky shores where there's no ramp.

Fish all day

We've tested all-day cruising. Your runtime depends on your battery, speed and conditions, and running at 100% drains the battery faster.

Built for fishing

A stable hull for fishing and standing, front hatch and rear tank well storage, gear tracks for accessories, foot-pedal steering, and a transducer pocket for your fish finder. Navigation and deck lights come installed, plus USB and USB-C charging ports. See what's included.
