Post Why I have a mud rig and not an over priced bay boat !!!!!
caught this a month ago or so. Fished for only 45 min and came home with this. Passed by some guys not catching a thing anchored at the mouth of this small lake. There big bad as 35k$ bay boat could not get in the canal but my lil 6500$ rig did. I only fished for 2 hours till a storm system can in. When I left they were still there not catching shit ! lol

The guys in the bay boat were pissed when they saw us go by them 45 min after we just got there. they were just watching us catch fish lol. This was my catch my buddy did the same except no reds but he did limit on specs .

I did the same thing last year for a bass tourny. Smoked the bass in the flats in henderson flipping a jig. Big bass and weighed in 17 lb It was un fair to let mudmotors in tournaments !!!!



Let's compare
Mud motor 15000 avg
Bass boat 65000 avg

Mudmotor 32 mph
Bass boat 78 mph

Mudmotor air cooled
Outboard water cooled
That where they got me !!!!!

You can do that this time of year, but in the windy springtime trout will be in the big water/beaches. It'll make you wish you had a bay boat

I don't want three boats in my yard. I will be able to go deep or shallow once I get me a new hull. I dunno what kind of fish yall consider good to eat but reds are very good to eat. Flounder is my favorite but reds and specs are still very good to eat.

That's a stupid statement. I want a mud boat, 24 blazer bay, 31 cape horn, 28' aluminum work boat with a cabin on the back, and a air boat

They have a 32' model also. I don't really care for the 36' cape horn. Americats is a nice choice also. There is some other nicer boats but for the money if the best you are gonna get under 200k

The house boat was bought from my dad at really good price. And I'm in partnership with a hunting buddy with the airboat. I've been having the outboard for years and my gtr is new. All paid for with the help of the oilfield.

I don't like a bunch of crap in my yard. I have 4 acres but don't mean I need to fill it up lol. I got my lil 15/46 alweld 25 evnrude and my 18/56 GD with a stage 2 GTR . They about get me anywhere I need to be. I don't offshore fish enough to constitute getting an offshore rig and if I'm on the water I'm there to play not work. Worked at the port of lake Charles 3 years hated it every time I'd see a fishing boat go by

Everybody needs a 40' Freeman......and an American Aluminum Marine 26' bay.

I'm still saving for mine, lol. But....when I do get enough coin, I'll be happy to 'clutter' up my yard with them.
