    I’ve canoed the Juniper Run many times from the park to the bridge. It was nice to see what lies beyond the bridge.

      Yeah, I guess I’ll have to canoe it from start to finish now.

    That’s a cool river trip. The water is so clear and looks awesome for cooling off. Beautiful jungle like scenery, thanks for sharing. Nice to see all those mullet up there.

    one thing Evinrude got right was water pump discharge it's close to an inch and moves alot of water.. sadly i still wish i had a 4 stroke.. mine is a 2018 and 10yr warranty (reason for buying) but with them going out of business it's tough to find a place for warranty work... love that boat Kevin i thought my key west 1720 went in skinny water lol i can do 10-11" min. but can do about 15 ish inces on plane if i know the area

    • @OverlandFlorida
      @OverlandFlorida  Рік тому

      I ran a newer Evinrude for a while. I don’t really care for buying and adding oil. I’d rather just gas and go. I didn’t have any issues with the engine at all. Knowing the area to be able to stay in plane is half the battle! Thanks for watching.

    Really like your river adventures, post some more! You're hitting a lot of old rivers and creeks I used to spend time on years ago. I just picked up a boat (2008 - 18' Carolina Skiff, 70 HP Suzuki with Jack plate) and I plan on hitting some of the spots again....actually heading up the Wekiva in about an hour!

    hwy 19 and up is alot narrower and one side is deeper than the other but no way are you getting above 19....I canoed it and did a video onit like 3 years ago , awesome spring run. lots of jumping mullet in there.

    What type of schooling fish were those? They looked a decent size.
