The Bite FD is a pedal kayak designed to provide high performance while requiring little maintenance. Built on the same Bite hull that refused to compromise performance, gear management or quality despite its economical price point, Jackson Kayak’s Bite FD doesn’t cut corners.

The perfect combination of comfort, versatility and innovative design that will make adventures accessible for any water enthusiast.

Ready for fresh or saltwater, the Bite FD can handle a variety of waterways. Best suited for small lakes, ponds, slow moving rivers and inshore saltwater.

Every model in our 2026 fishing lineup now comes equipped with the Jackson Kayak Comfort Seat 5.0. Designed with a deeper ergonomic base for better posture and lower center of gravity, the 5.0 delivers improved support, increased comfort, and a more connected feel on the water. It’s the most advanced version of our iconic seat system, now standard across the board.
