Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 Pedal Fishing Kayak
Description
The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 is a 12-foot pedal-driven sit-on-top fishing kayak built for anglers who want hands-free propulsion, rock-solid stability, and a fully rigged platform right out of the box. Powered by the award-winning PDL Drive, you can move through the water like a bike - forward and reverse - keeping both hands free to work your rods and land fish. The ultra-stable DoubleU hull is designed to let you stand and fish with confidence, whether you're sight-casting in shallow flats or working structure on open water.
Built from single-layer polyethylene and rotomolded right in Maine, USA, the Sportsman PDL 120 is tough enough for saltwater, rivers, and lakes alike. Whether you're a tournament angler looking for a reliable, low-maintenance pedal kayak or a weekend hunter wanting a stealthy, capable platform, this kayak delivers the performance and fishability you need all day long.

FAQ
Is the PDL Drive easy to remove for transportation?
Yes - the PDL Drive and seat are both designed for quick removal, making it straightforward to load the kayak into a truck bed, onto a roof rack, or into a trailer. This significantly reduces the weight you're handling during transport.
Is the Sportsman PDL 120 saltwater-safe?
Absolutely. The PDL Drive is saltwater-ready and the hull is built from durable polyethylene that holds up to saltwater environments. Rinse the drive and hull with fresh water after saltwater use to maximize longevity.
Can I stand up and fish in this kayak?
Yes - the DoubleU hull is specifically engineered to provide the kind of stand-up stability you'd expect from a much larger vessel. Many anglers fish from a standing position in the Sportsman PDL 120 regularly.
What fish finders are compatible with the Sportsman PDL 120?
The kayak features a universal transducer mounting system designed to work with most leading fish finder brands. The two 18" accessory tracks also provide flexible mounting positions for your fish finder head unit and other electronics.
What is the difference between the Marsh Camo and Pheasant colorways?
Both are hunting and fishing-themed camo patterns. Marsh Camo is designed with wetland and waterfowl hunting environments in mind, blending into reeds and grassy marshes. Pheasant features patterns suited for upland and mixed terrain. Old Town's production process makes every boat unique, so exact pattern placement will vary slightly. Neither colorway affects performance or features.
Does this kayak require assembly?
Minimal setup is required - you'll install the PDL Drive into the hull slot, attach the seat, and add any accessories you've chosen. No complex assembly is needed. Old Town includes a Quick Reference Guide for the PDL Drive to walk you through the process.
How is the kayak shipped?
Due to its size and weight (116 lb assembled), the Sportsman PDL 120 typically ships via freight on a pallet. Please contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com to confirm shipping details and get an estimated delivery timeframe to your location.
