    Ultimate river rig

    Picked up this 2022 hog island skiff and built a jet boat. Poly boat, poly jet foot. If it's wet, I'll run through it. This thing is awesome. Think of a yeti cooler boat. Neutral buoyant. Damm near unbreakable. It's going to be fun

    Nice looking boat! I miss river fishing and that thing would be perfect!
    No one can be wrong that often so it has to be deliberate.
