A unique website dedicated to fishing information from Florida's Northern Big Bend. This includes the area from the Econfina River west to the Apalachicola River
Took out a 24 DLX Carolina Skiff for a test drive yesterday. Thing is a barge. Never been on anything so stable. I was actually hoping for a little chop or something; but, unfortunately smooth as glass (I know...you don't hear that too often). I did run through some wake off of a guys twins, that was about as good as I could do. Did handle that a lot better than the other smaller skiffs I've been on...Was able to hit about 35 mph with a 90 on the back. Overall, I was pretty impressed. Especially for the price. If you guys would just send me some donations.
My dad had one of those. I think I lost 3 inches (in heigth) due to that boat. It rode pretty rough. As far as fishing out of it, you couldn't find a more stable rig. It's just getting there that I hated.
