Is the Starter Pack Plus worth $50 more than the Starter Pack?

If you will use the second mount, the Double Header paddle holder and the cutting board, yes. If you just need a rod holder, storage box and cup holder, the base kit covers it for $100.00 at eBay as of November 6, 2026.

Which has the better paddle holder?

The Plus. Its Double Header uses dual RotoGrip grips, while the base kit uses the single PadLoc holder.

Do both kits fit the same kayaks?

Both use YakAttack's track-mounted LockNLoad and GridLoc systems, which fit most kayak accessory tracks. The base kit's 9-inch MightyMount XL needs more track length than the Plus's 6-inch mounts.

Which is better for a first kayak fishing setup?

The base Starter Pack. It has the essentials at the lower price, and you can add a second mount later if you need one.

Both use UV-stabilized polymers and stainless steel hardware, so wear should be similar. The Plus gives you more parts, but no different materials.

YakAttack Kayak Fishing Starter Pack vs YakAttack Kayak Fishing Starter Pack Plus

Buy the Starter Pack Plus if you want a second mounting base and a cutting board; buy the base Starter Pack if you want the essentials for less. As of November 6, 2026, the Starter Pack is $100.00 at eBay and the Plus is $150.00 at Eco Fishing Shop, a $50 gap. Both share the same Omega rod holder, TracPak base and box, and MultiMount cup holder, so the real question is whether the extra mount, the Double Header paddle holder and the cutting board are worth $50 to you.

Today the YakAttack Kayak Fishing Starter Pack costs $45.00 less at its best price.
