Just got back. I’ll post a report. They were in 5-7 feet in the canal.

MemberJanuary 20, 2025 at 10:39 pm in reply to: BOAT SHOPS AND THE SHENANIGANS THEY DONot sticking up for any of the local shops here, but I ordered 2 parts for my outboard since my start button is non-functional on the 11th and they have been sitting in the New Orleans USPS sorting center for a week.
If its not delayed by back order, its delayed by the carrier in some way.
I tend to work on my own stuff but if I have to leave it with someone I typically travel to rural Alabama. There’s so many old school techs who are honest over there it’s hard to deal with the attitude and prices that New Orleans and surrounding areas throw at you. I don’t mean all, but the majority of what I’ve encountered locally is unimpressive.

For those that haven’t been, the pen is like the size of a postage stamp
Not really, but if there’s more then 3 boats you’re gonna be close.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND an older Bass boat over a flat boat.
-They still draft nothing.
-They’re more stable for standing.
-They’re cheap and plentiful.
-The older ones usually have older trolling motors with foot controls that still work after 40 years, and will probably work another 40.
-They’re fast and comfortable
-They’re easy to fully redo(I rebuilt mine in 1 week)
-They’re stealthy and catch fish(I’ve caught bass, reds, trout, sheepshead, flounder, drum, and tripletail on mine)
-You wont bash your brains out with a little chop
-You can run wooded bayous without the fear of sinking.
I’ve got my eye on one in BR that I was gonna flip but if you’re interested, let me know.
Also, if you wanna borrow a boat and feel like running to Mobile to grab one, you can borrow mine to test it out.

They’ll be there all week
