Overview

Kayak fishing can be an addictive pastime. It sneaks up on you quietly, then completely hooks you. But getting there should be at least half the fun, and the Bending Branches Angler Classic Kayak Paddle is a first-class way to get there. A face-lift for the previous Slice Angler and a step-up from entry level paddles, the Angler Classic is slightly lighter, but with classic Branches strength and style. With features like a tape measure on the shaft and a hook retrieval built right into the blade, the benefits are more than efficiency and convenience. Bringing together classic Bending Branches quality and a new look, the Angler Classic looks good in all waters. It will help you bring your A-game to your new obsession. Enjoy having the right blade color for your trip. The Sage Green blade helps you sneak up on the fish, while the Autumn Orange blade is a bright option for any waters.


  • Hi-vis tape measure printed on the shaft in both inches and centimeters
  • Composite ferrule, two piece fiberglass shaft
  • 0 and 60 degree left or right ferrule
  • Large, fiberglass reinforced blades in two color choices
  • Built in hook-retrieval on the blade

The BB Angler Classic is beautifully designed and executed. It exudes quality. The finish is beautiful, the balance is perfect, and the angler features like the built in fish measure and line grabber on the port side blade make it the perfect angler paddle. It's a 10!

This paddle when put together is very tight, no rattle or looseness at all. I really like the added touches of a measuring ruler etched into the shaft and the line slot in the blade for getting a hold of fishing line. These two features are very helpful to me. 5 stars

I totally regret purchasing this ---the hook retrieval is disasterous ----every time dip paddle in water it grabs tons of weeds and had to pull off every dip---had to put electrical tape on to cover the hook hole and that was unsightly and didn't last ---totally wasted money and now have to spend money on something else

I used this paddle for 2 1/2 days while fishing salt water and the performance was outstanding. A friend that was fishing with me asked to use it as he was in the market for a new longer paddle, he has since bought one also. Great paddle and I love the lure removal built into it as I used it a few times to get my line out from around the rudder. If you are looking for a new paddle I would highly recommend this paddle.

Great paddle. lightweight and tracks my yak quickly. First time out I paddled for about 5 hrs. After about the 1st hour, you can really tell the difference between this paddle and other aluminum paddles I own. The ruler on the shaft and the hook notch on the paddle blade are nice touches. Before I could even wonder when I was going to receive the paddle, it was sitting at my front door. ACK really ships fast. Great experience, will do business again.

I am very pleased with this paddle. I have only used it about 3 hours. It is sturdy and lightweight. I bought the orange for the visibility. I like it better than the Carlisle Magic Plus it replaces. It is a little lighter but the ferrule seems stronger and has less play. The blades cut the water cleanly and with less noise.

I was a little worried about this paddle to be honest just because I bought into a lot of the hype about choosing the best paddle. I ended up with this one and am very happy. I use it often and it does everything I need it to do with ease. If you are just getting into kayak fishing you will not be unhappy with this paddle.

Good paddle, well made, sturdy, nice fit and finish. The measuring tape is encapsulated into the finish of the handle and should last as long as the paddle does. Used it a few time now and love it. Good balance between price and performance with the measurement and lure retreival features being icing on the cake.

By: John  Date: Oct 29, 2013 

I have the 240 and use it on my ride 135. I really like this paddle a lot. I do not agree with other reviewers on this being a light paddle. But, on the other hand, it is not heavy. The 'angler' features are definitely useful, but, more importantly, it is a great paddling paddle. It fits together perfectly, with no wobble at all- -almost feels like a one-piece when connected. This is an excellent paddle overall. I am still hoping to get a Werner Camano someday, but this fits my needs for now. The first weekend out with this paddle, the winds kicked up on the Chesapeake bay where I was out fishing by a bridge and I had to paddle out in up to 25+ winds and up to 3' waves. I was very happy with how this paddle propelled me through the chop in relation to the amount of muscle I had to put into it. The reasons this does not get 5 stars: It needs grips; the shaft is slippery when it gets wet or after handling a fish; the ferrule almost fits perfectly, but not quite--it takes a little work to get it to pop out into place.

I have creek fished my Native Ultimate 12 for years with a Carlisle Daytripper, but I decided that this Fathers Day I would up grade to a better paddle, so I had my wife get me the Angler Classic and I have to say I have been a little disappointed. I like the ruler on the shaft , that is what sold me, but I cant say that I see a $100 difference in the weight and performance of it against the $50 Daytripper.

Just picked up a Jackson Coosa from a friend and needed a paddle so I could hit the water. I had heard great things about the Bending Branches paddle and since I was going to use it for fishing, I figured the Angler model would be perfect. I couldnt be more happy. This paddle is nice and light in the hand and easy to paddle all day. I like the fact that is breaks down for storage and transportation. I have already recommended it to a couple of friends. I would definitely buy this paddle again.

Fantastic paddle, very light, love the 2 piece design and super solid when connected into 1 piece. I've been enjoying paddling so much that I haven't gone fishing yet and didn't use the hook/ line retriever or measure unit to record the woppers I'll be pullin in in the future! I gave a 4 stare because I'm a "little" concerned about paddle strenghth but most of that is due to my inexperience and knowlege of other paddles, but I've been hittin it hard and have had nothin but smiles!

I am new to kayaks but not fishing from the water. As one that has thrown a cast or two into the trees, I know how frustrating it can be to retrieve the lure out of the tangled mess of the Florida mangroves. This paddle works as advertised. The ease of design is perfect to "dehook" the trees. Also a lightweight and powerful paddle. I would recommend this to any angler on a kayak.

Sweet paddles! I purchased 2 sets of the 240cm models. Great design - 2 piece matching pair; so no bothersome wobble! Ruler on the shaft is great.

ACK shipped them so fast & SAFE I thought I bought them in the store - what a great company! I will definitely be back! PS> Helpful if in the future ACK price tags were stuck on a removable tag ~ not on the paddle itself - had to use Goo-Off to get the sticky off the blade .... just a mere suggestion

I have been a paddle that looks just like this paddle, so when I received the Slice I was surprised at how much lighter it is. Ive had the paddle out 5 times about 25hrs and I am very happy with it the paddle has a very good entry and exit and it's stiff feels more like carbon than glass. I bought it because I wanted a durable paddle for rivers and was going to buy a carbon paddle for open water don't think I need the carbon now. I normally buy my stuff from local dealers but I have found a new friend in Austin C&K. Another thing I called BB as I had a couple of questions and was surprised that the phone was picked up by a real person that was very friendly and had the answers to all my questions, I felt like I was talking to one of the owners. The paddle looks great also. Mike

Top Question & Answer
Q: I have a Freedom Hawk Pathfinder 14 kayak. It has an elite angler seat and the seat sits up a little higher. I'm 5'10" and the kayak I think is 31-32" wide. What paddle length is recommended? 250 or 260? Is there a disadvantage of having too long of a paddle?
Asked on Apr 14, 2016 by Ryan H
FLAG QUESTION
A: We recommend a 240-250cm paddle given the specifications of the kayak and your height. If the paddle is too long is would be tougher to paddle because the blade would not entering the water on the right angle.

Asked on Dec 15, 2015 by Lee R
FLAG QUESTION
A: Hi, thanks for the question. There are several factors that will help allow you to fit a paddle to your size. Things to consider are the width of the kayak, is the kayak under 23" between 23"-28" or over 30'. The next factor is height of the paddler. you say you are 5'11". If your kayak is between 23"-28" and you are 5'11" you will want to use a 230cm paddle.
