How do you all hunt the 4" of water 4' of silt places? No way to survive a hunt walking in waders in that crap.
Kayak?
Paddle boat?
Worried about getting a small boat stuck with not enough room to float, then it seems you'd be in quite the pickle.

I blew my knee out and after surgery there is no way I can hunt in that. I get stuck all the time, so be careful. I take my boat as close as I can and then walk as close as I can get. I think a kayak would work and if you get stuck, use one leg to push yourself out...

Arise.Kill.Eat -Acts 10:13 I have read a bunch of stuff on the internet about Star Wars but that does not mean I can skin a deer with a light saber.

Any recommendations? Every place you go has the lightest, most stable, most affordable kayak in their opinion. with my man card and a shotgun Thanks for the laugh, been doing that for years. Very easy with a surface drive. Can you get a surface drive for a 10ft. john? Never used one so no clue

Even with a surface drive you still gotta ditch the boat and walk back where you are hunting, I carry a lightweight kayak in my big boat and paddle back to where I'm hunting in the shallows. Screw walking around in 3-4 ft silt.

Sometimes you just have to hunt from the boat.

No, too heavy for a small boat but a small longtail would work. Sometimes you just have to hunt from the boat. A copperhead might work!
