Duroboat Fun and Fishing

Duroboats are used for lots of things but at its heart it is a fishing boat.

These pics are the large and small treasures dragged from the water with the help of a Duroboat.

Susan and daughter Stephanie's in their new Duroboat on Oklahoma's beautiful Grand Lake 'o' The Cherokees. Joe was behind the camera. We read somewhere the o' means, over, not of ' the Cherokees.

The boat is a 15W with split side rails, console grab rail, twin Fish on seats with blue cushions and a Tohatsu 30HP motor, A very sweet and fast little pacakage. Perfect for fishing or a quick trip to one of Grand Lake's many great restaurants.

Speaking of Moby Dick. Even a Duroboat can't land 'em all.

Guys, we know you have faith in your Duroboat but there are limits.

Next time net him before he gets under the boat

Paul Jay, fishes down Mexico Way. This is a medley of the hits he recorded in his first Duroboat.

Paul recently bought his second hull and moved all of his custom fishing gear and beach launch wheels to the new one. His old hull was left for dead.

Six months later we got a call from a fellow that wanted to know how to fix up an old Duroboat he found in someones yard. It had major holes cut in it and lots of parts missing. After a few questions we determined that Paul's old hull from these pictures was about to undergo a complete refitting and new life. We have seen the pics and the new hull looks good, but pics are not yet in a format we can publish. Richard?

Speaking of pictures, Paul what have you caught lately?

Alice, a miniature black lab, sniffed out this striper from South Carolina's Murrells Inlet. She is nice enough to let Don hold the fish. More on Alice and Don in DuroLinks at the Duroboat Experience page.

Not the best pic because we lifted it from a video. This is one of the anglers from Work Boats Uganda. They took this Duroboat to a 2006 fishing tournament near Murchison Falls in Uganda. That is where Lake Victoria dumps in to the Nile Rver. They are fishing on the Nile for Nile Perch, which can get as large as 200 lbs. If you want to see more Nile Perch hit this Link. Some of the Perch there are amazing.
