Post Need Rec. on small rig for saltwater.
Just found this forum let me say thanks in advance . I guide backwater redfish trips here in Freeport TX , mostly flyfishing. I need a rig that can handle shell and mud , me and one other person max. Need to be able to cover some open water as well mostly on calm days. Have around $7000 to spend ,anyone know of any deals avaiable for guide programs. Thanks

Just get a 1442 with a 12 hp copperhead. This is what my buddy uses when we are fishing flats and it's great. I know sometimes its nice to have a bigger boat but in our case its nice to have a smaller one. Those times when your stuck on an oyster bed and need to get out and push is def better with a 14 footer.
