Coosa Series

YakAttack is well known as the leader in custom rigging solutions, and accessories that add safety, fishing and photography functionality come standard with these special editions.

Coosa HD Pro Description: This “Heavy Duty” Coosa boasts more length and width than the original, a perfect fit for anglers of all sizes and those who are really looking for a stand up fishing kayak. Best of all, the hull is still river friendly, but the HD will track truer on the flat waters of lakes or inshore saltwater. The HD version is packed with all the state of the art features you’d expect and headlining the list is the new innovative and removable “Coosa Console”. The console turns this kayak into a craft for both the accessory obsessed angler and, when removed, creates an open deck layout for fly anglers or those that prefer simplification. The console even boasts a hidden “line spooling station” for leaders or line to be easily accessed while on the water. The HD comes with RAM mount rod holders and Yak Attack gear tracks, Elite seat 3.0, and all the standard Jackson Kayak fishing features. The Coosa HD Pro fulfills the potential of the Coosa HD, including everything the professionals use in one package. Coming complete with a Raymarine Dragonfly 5Pro Fishfinder/Navigation system, Nocqua JK Pro Power Supply, and a complete Power-Pole Micro Anchor system with spike and battery pack, everything you need to fish any water, anywhere in the world, rigged and ready to go. A Saltwater Version Buck Splizzors ($200 Retail) are included to complete the ‘Pro’ package.

Coosa HD Description: Jackson Kayak’s top design team put an “HD” twist on the already popular Coosa model.
