The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. Life is too short to only hunt and fish on weekends! If being a dumbass was fatal some of you would be on your death bed!

My tournament rig had 58 gallon capacity......made some long runs on Arkansas River where I was coming in on fumes. The more you run it the more you’ll learn the boat.
