Thanks for the kind words, see yall on the water soon if this wind ever quits.

Here is some pics of my new skiff. I can honestly say, I found my dreamboat. I know many are ready to give up on finding THE ONE, but keep looking, there is one out there for you. Really though, I am super happy with my new skiff. I have had the chance to fish on it for a few weeks now and have ...

While I'm not planning on replacing the BTX at this point, I'd love to take a look at that thing if your ever around Lanark for Tarpon this summer.

The amount of freeboard looks great, that's one of my few complaints with the B1 / B2 / BTX hulls. While a low freeboard helps cut down on the wind ...

Just re-read this. You would think that 90 would have that little boat FLYING! That 4 blade must really bite for a good hole shot, and hamper the top end.

Yeah, I am missing a few mph on the top end, but its worth it out of the hole. After I wear a little cup off I expect to see a few more mph's.

Here is a pic of it in front of my folks house. http://www.beavertailskiffs.com/ I'll post some more up when I get em. I cant say enough about the BT crew, they really put it all together on this one. I am running a 16" 4 blade powertech on it. Come on warm weather, I'm ready now!

We'll do it again. I am ready to get that HPX wet. That was Fred over there by us, earned him another boat.

Hate to get rid of it, just need to get a bigger skiff. Best boat I have ever owned.

2008 Beavertail B2 with 60 Evinrude E-Tec Saltwater Series. Blue Rock aluminum trailer with stainless hardware, torsion axles, power winch, and aluminum mag wheels. Boat includes flyline toe rails, custom casting platform, fold down pushpole holders, volvo trim tabs, fuel/tach/water pressure gauges ...

Good to know somebody is using up my flies.... Ricky had to rob a few more cause he was runnin out.

Yep, broke a TICR 10 wt. last year. 25 bucks and a few days later had a new one.

Black & Purple seem to work on everything from tarpon to largemouths. My favorite bass worm was always a tequila sunrise culprit.

That Midarbor Battenkill is a tough reel, not sure about on a 12 Wt. I have the mid arbor V on a 7 wt. and it works great. You might really want to upsize to a 4.5" Diameter reel with a good drag for that TICR 12 wt. That is a good buy on that rod, I have a few in 12 wt. and love them. I broke one ...

The Orvis Mid Arbor is a great value, had one for a while and they are tough. Also for a good value is the TFO large arbor 425. I like the bigger arbor of the TFO.

I guess I missed this one. Count me in on the next one.

I'm ready for the Beacon Bash. Lets do it. When you going to be in town Mills? I just cleaned out a bunch of flies, and need to start fillin the box back up.
