- We decided to do a little exploring with our gator tail boat and go into some new areas we have never seen. Mother nature turned on us and the water was lower than expected. With that said, the boat performed excellent and got us home. If you are interested in a gator tail package, see Jacks Boats and trailers in Perry, FL for all your boating needs.

Couldn't think of a better way to spend a day
Love the Slave canal....Been a long time since I have been that far down..thanks for the memories
Hi Andrew and Tiffany! You two are very brave. I would have been scared out of my mind. Y’all are definitely Soulmates and Water Babies. What a ride!!!!!!!
We always refer to ourselves as water babies!
That was an awesome ride. Thank you
Thank you
Great ride! The 1860 Extreme Series CC is on my radar.
Man that was a cool video. It was awesome how you went on those narrow one way water. I guess those are Trails for the boat. "LOL" but I like it. it was pretty awesome. I know that rain probably feel good After a hot day. I really liked it when the water opened up and all the boats was racing that quarter mile. Man i know you had a fun day. Man I can't wait to get better so I can go ahead have some fun on the water. Thank you I really enjoyed that.
Thanks for watching, we had a blast!
looks like a hell of a lot of fun ;-)
It was until that lightning started popping... I'm ready for another exploratory trip
Cool footage.
Thanks
My wife and i watch your channel all the time we would love to see you do more offshore fishing from keaton beach area
That's on my to do list very soon! About to be grouper trolling season
And thank you for supporting the channel
Just ridin on it mashing on it full power an maybe some light fishing an picture taking this boat would pair good with ah good truck camper
Wanna take my grandson down to wacissa this weekend if the weather holds up.fantastic video and ride . I want your Boat 😂
Sorry my friend, I don't do tours. Not to mention it's 80 percent chance of rain this weekend, I doubt I get out myself. Take care
@@TKOutdoors lol thx no i wouldnt ask that of you bud,im going myself i was saying ,we used to camp out down at the public landing well that was when i was young and it was safe to do so,keep up the great videos,we used to go swimming in Loyd also,im assuming you probly know where tht is.it was just a small creek ,cold but dark water
You should also take the west cuttoff over to the Pinhook river..good fishing over there.
I looked it up, had no idea it even existed
I kept waiting for a good old rock tap lol
We hit plenty, trust me 😁. The prop handled it great
❤❤❤
Freaking cool! Someone know's the river!! 😉
Yes it's becoming more and more popular
Just bought an extreme series 1754. Took it out Monday for the maiden voyage. Absolutely love it. Getting ready for early teal. fingers crossed. keep it up, I enjoy the content.
Enjoy that new boat, we love ours.
When you got “stuck” in that shallow section, what happened there? Looked like you were still in 10-12” of water?
Oh no, very large rocks in that area poke right up to the surface.
I'm in between a 1748 0r 1754. I live in south Florida, how does that 48" wide hold a load and hunt?
If your going that short get the 54 wide. It will give you more room and carry a heavier load.
I know you probably get asked this allot but how shallow will this boat run ? My river gets down to a couple inches with sandy gravel bottom you think this boat can handle it? I have a lowe 1240 with a 9.9 outboard and it bottoms out like crazy I can't stand it anymore.
Running wide open, I can run in just a few inches of water. Sitting still it probably drafts 6-8 inches loaded down. The problem with sand and gravel is that it will eat your prop down quickly. At 250-300 bucks, that will get old quick.
@@TKOutdoors thanks for the info, Im just at the end of my rope with a regular outboard on the river, my prop now is already pretty banged up, I looked at jet drives and they seem to be more maintenance, I rather replace a prop over a Impeller. There is a dealer near me that has the boats but its a big expense to find out if it works for me or not.
I run a 1648 Alweld Marsh and a Mud Buddy 23 Mini. You can modify the larger MB rock guard by turning it upside down and attaching to the skeg. Not sure if GT has a rock guard? Works great on the shallow rocky Northern rivers...
Never seen a rock guard for my gator tail, would be nice for exploring.
So is that river or just swampy area you were going through? Remember you talking to a Midwestern boy, we have the mighty Mississippi, the Illinois River, and Missouri River that we play on, so it looks a lot different than what you were going through there. We have some small creeks that you can wander back into off the rivers and explore.
That was two different rivers that tie together and then back creeks off of them. End of the video was the river meeting the gulf of Mexico.
@@TKOutdoors some beautiful area.
Thanks, we love the area
I remember some complaints about this ride 😂
Yeah well, that rain and lightning ain't no joke
@@TKOutdoors Im down for a group ride not that far where it gets ugly if you're down. I need to re learn at least goose section.
10-4, we will line it up soon. I've got some awesome looking spots an hour or so west of us that I really want to get a group together to go ride.
@@TKOutdoors Im down I enjoy adventure and change away from the plastic navy!
@@TKOutdoors I live over in Quincy, if there's enough water, I'll come give you a run for your money in the Gheenoe. :D
What’s that narrow rocky place about?
Old man made dam for trains, basically a logging tram
Is this wakulla or wacissa?
I never new they made a 4wheel drive boat
They sure do! Love it
Beautiful country right there
Where are you at
North Florida
Do you remember how much gas you used on that 30 mile run
No, but I'm thinking it gets somewhere around 10-15 mpg. It's not often I fill up with that 13 gallon tank
Wakulla or St. Marks
End of that video was the Aucilla and the gulf of Mexico, rode some feeder creeks too. I need to hit the st mark's soon, have not been up to the head in a long time
The Kelley's Outdoors gotcha I fish Ecofina a lot.
I use to fish econfia a lot, that's another place I need to get back to. I use to catch a lot of redfish there at the coast
Привет из России! Мы также гоняем на реках сибири. Байкал! Енисей. И много мелких рек и болот. Я из г Ачинск. Река Чулым. Кемчуг! Охота, рыбалка.
Sounds wonderful. Thanks for watching.
