Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
This hydro turf will match the boat pattern pretty well.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
That is a fine rig. That camo keeps you from looking like everyone else, too.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
The camo is not even remotely close to multicam, but I think I like it better.
It is unique, and I believe it will blend well in most of the areas I would hunt.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
I think there are a slew of camo options that have yet to be tried on a boat.
If you visit the Uncle J Custom Boats Face Book page, you can see where he did his own boat in an anaconda pattern. No one has yet to do a boat in a gator pattern.
I am a little more educated on camouflage in regards to what the human eye sees. I am not as smart on what a duck can see. Sometimes I think camo is more hype than reality. That being said, I believe the old WWII British camo pattern to be one of the best ever. This is the old British Paratrooper Smock. A boat done in this pattern would be very unique,.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
I have my boat. I am pretty smoked. Worked an all nighter, drove the next day to South LA, and back the next.
Got the trolling motor mounted and had some other work to do.
Took it out on the White River and did a little fishing.
The boat and Gator Tail XD ran very well.
I have some learning to do. This is my first SD. Did figure out that load balance makes a real difference in getting the boat to run true and not pull one direction.
Still figuring out the trim.
Plan to take a GPS next time.
Once I get it all figured out I will do a review
Jason at Uncle J is one heck of a stand up fellow. I really enjoyed doing business with him.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
You are a bunch of dirty minded bastards.
I did get to look at the boat while I picked loads of sweet corn for Mamma Ranger.
Only a dumb ass plants 15 rows of sweet corn. Wish I had some more hogs to feed. This would go much quicker.

Cypress Critter....I promise you, Uncle J's trademark is on your hull, too.
He really should be ashamed of himself for putting that as his trademark on people's boats! Prolly ought to start a "Show Your Uncle 'Johnson'" thread! LOL

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
Last night was the most I was able to run the new boat. Still figuring some things out.
With me (235), the wife and daughter (115 per), full tank of gas, cooler, trolling motor and battery, we were running 27 against the current in the main channel of the Chattahoochee River.
Plan to put it in shallow water tonight.

Re: The Time Has Come- custom build.
Ran it up and down the White River two nights ago with just me, full tank of gas, trolling motor and battery up front.
It ran 29 mph steady and when I got into shallow water it did 30 mph.
I do not like getting into shallow much on the White River because of all the rock.
The picture is when I was down in Alabama last week on the Chattahoochee. Wish I was still down there.
I was bass fishing with a 13 year old. He had never seen a mud motor before. We were throwing top water on the edge of the lily pads and he pointed off into them and said "so it will run through stuff like that?" I told him "yep", but he looked skeptical. I figured I better prove it to him, and thought it would hammer the point home if he actually got to drive the boat. He kept that smile on his face for a good while.
Been a while since I bass fished the River Bend area on Fort Benning. I did not realize the gator population had grown. We had gators everywhere.

I wish I would have known when you were down here, I would have paid for you a good meal. All the good conversations we have had about popular culture. I have learned a lot from you in those discussions. I owe you one.
Enjoy that great looking boat.
