What kind of prop do you have on your duck hunting rig?
I put the boat in at Lake Travis Sunday, which is freaking low, and bent two of my propeller blades.
Is stainless steal better?

I have a stock prop, I just go slow and keep my prop just below the water level. You just need to make sure your water is still circulating through your motor.
Be a man of God, and show others how to as well.

Hummm I just run a plastic fiber prop, they are cheap to replace, but best of all, you can sharpen them with a file, and run through heavy weeds with ease. Three years and 4 shear pins later, it still running

I burn a prop a season buddy. Just the price of doing business where I run(and the ducks). eventually, I'll be able to afford a mudmotor and boat and an all purpose boat. for now, I run what i got.
