Look for this boat to be the demise of many fish in the coming months or years, or till someone wants to sponsor us Hint Hint(pavatti) Really, though, we are very excited and have been blessed with a very nice willy and plan to put it to good use.

Oh Boy!! So many rivers and so little time.

RIGHT ON guys!!! I feel sorry for the anadromous fish. So many more will now feel the sting of your jig hooks!!

Boy, I'm sorry to see you guys in a new boat. The car topper and you both just worked. Sorry Chad, I had to get my cheap shot in to Daniel. He gave me a on the last post.

That Willy will open a lot of water for you. The fish are already making plans on where to hide. Congrats guys and have fun. Well, except Daniel.

I'm sure I'll be having more fun than should be allowed by law.

Right On Guys !!
Nice boat ! It aint a Riverwolf but hey, ya gotta start somewhere.
Just kidding guys. Any boat that gets ya down the river is a Damm good boat.
I'm sure the the winter steelhead are shaking in their fins.
Have fun with it and be safe.

Just got it home today and it looks amazing! Its going to be a lot of fun. Might be taking a trip down the middle or upper Rogue to find some steelhead soon.

Ok, so now we have a drift boat. What do you guys recommend for the bottom. I've heard of several different coatings that people put on. Which one is best, and can you do it yourself. There does appear to be some type of coating on the bottom, but it is pretty dry now as the boat hasn't been used in 3 years.

COAT IT. I have found it lasts longer than Gluvit on the bottom. Since its new to you guys... I highly recommend you do it before you go crashing down the river hehehehe Sand off all.. or well MOST of the old stuff, rough up the surface and pour it on.... Not really fun. Make sure its very dry and perferably over 70 degrees when you do it. The warmer the better. Congrats on the new toy for the arsenal!!!!!!! Just remember... when you own a boat you don't fish nearly as much you row or operate it

Thanks for the info John. I'm hoping Chad is an excellent rower...

My arms cramped up all of the sudden! I think I need to take the winter off from rowing!

Uh oh Chad's whimping out already. Daniel will be doing all the rowing while Chad relaxes and reels in all the fish that hammer the diver and bait. No just kidding. But definatley put some of that gluvit on the bottom. She'll be just gliding down the river real nicely.

Gluvit and Coat it are for sissies. What's the matter got no umph in your get along? Come on Man up here.

Thanks for that guys....Im laughing me arse off!!! Thats funny stuff right there!!
I love it when Jonny rows the boat, then I can flog the water with the jigs!!! I guess I am very lucky, when I fish with Jon we both fish all day in different spots along the bank etc. He usually lets me have at the water with my jig rods up front with me as we move between spots. Magic usually happens Fun stuff!! Love ya Jonny Boy
I must say though, its a great feeling when you are rowing and the guys up front go bendo when you are side drifting them through a hole though!! Almost as good as holding the rod yourself!!
