Reminds me of the time my buddy and I took my 10' jon boat down the Wolf River bow hunting and Tom got a nice about 160 dressed 8 point. We were pretty close to BIA max rated with just the two of us and our gear and then another 160# in there left about two inches of free board. I had the thing over motored with a 9.8 Merc which in retrospect was probably a good thing because we could get the boat out of the water a little better at higher speed. River systems are a great way to access excellent flood plane hunting areas. Nice bucks and pics!
