New boat

Whoo Hoo! I just got back from VA/NC and I have my new boat… camo colored Tarpon 160 os… ( old school, it has the two hatches instead of the well in back). I took it out in the river behind my brothers house and it is such a step up from my pelican… WOW. :smiley: I caught a small largemouth but really had more fun paddling it and just learning the quirks of a boat that is about 5 feet longer than what I am used to :wink: I have to get a battery for the fish finder and rig up a way for my milk crate to sit but I was thinking about making a rack that will fit into the flush mount rod holders that I can attach rod holders and a small crate for my tackle box. I’ll post pix when I figure out what I am gonna do… any suggestions are welcome. Looking to get it wet again next weekend, probably at Bushy Park…

Fresh fish tastes much better than fresh kissed butt…

Sounds great Ken
Welcome back. I went to Bushy Friday morning and got blown all over creation. I paddled aout against the wind :frowning_face: and fished several “non-specific locations”:wink:. I scared a nice school of reds and missed a few good strikes.
I paddled upriver about a mile to drift fish the bank on the falling tide. Well the wind changed and I couldn’t stay close to the bank for love nor money. Headed back in and paddled against the wind back to the landing.:frowning_face:

So much water, So little time
