First outing of 2026 on the Wando

First trip of 2026 and after 15 minutes of fishing I matched my kayak best with a 30-1/2" red on a 2" Johnson silver minnow spoon (gold color). This is going to be another great year on the Wando!

I am casually on the hunt for a 21-24’ Carolina skiff DLX or DLV hull. A good trailer and late model engine is a plus but not essential. I am looking for a bare bones work boat I can build out the way I want.
