Warrior One Man Boats

09/30/2026

I CAN JUSTIFY THIS ONE 😂 — THE WARRIOR JUST GOT MORE DANGEROUS!**

In my defense… **I NEEDED THIS BOAT.** 😂

Hell, I might've died if I didn't get it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

With the swamp as low as it is right now, these Warrior Boats have already been getting us into places where bigger boats simply aren't going. But this one takes things to another level.

**MORE ROOM = MORE GEAR = MORE OPTIONS.**

I can fish out of it.
I can hunt out of it.
I can haul more gear and travel farther back into the swamp.

Now we're getting **EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.** 😂

The squirrels and ducks are gonna have it BAD this year. One day this thing can be loaded with fishing gear chasing shellcrackers and crappie, and the next day we're slipping back into the swamp hunting.

And LOOK at the room in this thing!

Hell, there's room for a bag of corn or even a crappie stake bed to ease back into the swamp and put out. 😂

But here's the part I really like...

**NO BOAT RAMP? WHO CARES?**

Side of the road, back road, wherever I can legally get access and get this thing to the water — unload it, slide it down the bank, and we're IN. When we're finished, load it back up and we're gone.

With the water this low, that kind of versatility is a **GAME CHANGER.**

Fishing. Hunting. Exploring. Hauling gear. Getting into places other boats can't.

**OHHHH YEAH BABY... THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD.** 😂🔥

The Warrior arsenal just got a little more dangerous.

**LOW WATER & SHELLCRACKERS ON FIRE! 🔥🎣**

I really don’t have words for the shellcracker bite today. **UNBELIEVABLE!**

The temperatures dropped and these fish flat-out went to CHEWING. Honestly, that’s a little backwards from what I expected out of these shellcrackers, but with the water continuing to fall, I believe they’re in panic mode. The crazy part is they’re STILL trying to hold in the shallows even with the swamp getting lower by the day.

And this is exactly where the **Warrior One-Man Boats** have made the difference.

When the water gets this low, getting to the fish becomes half the battle. Mud, stumps, shallow water—it doesn’t matter. We’re still getting back there.

Come Monday, about all you’re probably going to see in that swamp is **SIX WARRIOR BOATS** laying the SMACK DOWN on shellcrackers, bass and bream! 😂🔥

And we ain’t even gonna talk about those **BIG BLACK CRAPPIE** we found...

MMMMMMMM. 👀

That’s gonna be a video.

**YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO WAIT ON THAT ONE!** 😂🎥

🎣 **GEAR WE USED**

**ACC Crappie Stix**
• 6'6" Trout/Panfish — 1-piece
• Legacy 1000 reels
• 10 lb ACC copolymer fishing line — Clear & Green
• #2 Red Tru-Turn hooks

Check out **FishUSA** for the fishing equipment and gear we used on this trip.

THE OLE SWAMP IS BEGGING FOR WATER!

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the swamp this low. We get a little water and it seems like Santee Cooper sucks it right back out. 😂

It’s not as bad as 2004 yet. Back then you could walk all the way to Little Otter Flats without getting your feet wet! But I’m telling you, we’re headed in that direction if we don’t get some rain pretty quick.

Nature sure has a way of reminding you what it’s capable of. Places that are normally covered in water are turning into mud, stumps and dry ground right before our eyes.

We’re still getting around in the Warrior Boats, but the ole swamp could definitely use a GOOD soaking right about now.

On the bright side, I’m LOVING this cool weather! 😂 If it wants to stay like this for the next 10 months, I won’t complain one bit.

Give me some 40-degree weather and I’d be even happier!

The swamp may be low, but we’re still going. 💪

24 HOURS in a ONE-MAN BOAT… Deep in the SWAMP!

I’ve talked about doing it long enough… now I actually did it.

24 HOURS in a Warrior One-Man Boat — deep in the swamp. Once I shoved off, there was NO going back to land.

I had to fish, catch my food, clean it, cook it, eat it, make it through the night, and handle everything from that little boat.

Daylight was one thing.

When darkness hit the swamp, it became a completely different challenge.

🎣 One boat
🎣 One rod
🎣 Limited gear 1 Hook 1 Cork
🔥 Catch it. Clean it. Cook it.
🌙 Spend the night in the swamp
🚫 NO LAND FOR 24 HOURS

I’ve got plenty of pictures and clips coming, but I’m not showing y’all everything yet. 😂

FULL 24-HOUR WARRIOR BOAT CHALLENGE COMING SOON!

WARRIOR BOATS ARE COMING TO DELAND, FLORIDA! 🔥 St. Johns River Ready!

FLORIDA — WARRIOR BOATS ARE COMING YOUR WAY! 🇺🇸🔥

We’ve been putting these Warrior Boats to work all over Florida — fishing the St. Johns River, running them on Lake Okeechobee, getting into shallow backwaters, grass, stumps and places a big boat simply isn’t going.

Now DeLand, Florida, right there near the St. Johns River, is getting ready to put Warrior Boats within reach of a whole lot more people!

And folks, don’t think these are JUST fishing boats.

🎣 Fish those hard-to-reach backwaters.
🦆 Duck hunt places everybody else passes by.
🦃 Slip into those little islands to turkey hunt.
🦌 Deer hunt. Hog hunt. Cut the dogs off. Scout. Explore. Haul gear.

Heck, throw the Warrior in your big boat, make the long run, unload the little boat and disappear into places everybody else is looking at wondering, “Where in the heck did he go?” 😂

And they’re QUIET. That deer, hog, turkey or duck might never know you’re there—as long as you see him first! Hahahaha!

That’s what I love about these boats. They’re simple, dependable, tough, easy to handle and capable of doing WAY more than just putting you on a bed of shellcrackers.

We’ve been showing you what they can do instead of just telling you. Florida has already been one heck of a proving ground, and we’re just getting started.

🔥 WARRIOR BOATS — COMING SOON TO DELAND, FLORIDA!
📍 Volusia County
🌴 St. Johns River
🇺🇸 And this is only the beginning.

Fish it. Hunt it. Explore it. If there’s water getting you there, put a Warrior Boat on it and GO.

🎣 **CRAPPIE BITE IS STILL ON! ANOTHER YAY DAY & WE SMOKED 'EM AGAIN! 🔥**

The **open-water crappie bite has been GOOD to us**, and today was no different. We went back after them and **SMOKED THEIR TAILS AGAIN!** 😂🎣

Another **YAY DAY** for Gators Outdoor Adventures!

Some days the fish cooperate and some days they'll make you question everything you thought you knew. 😂 That's fishing. But when it all comes together, you enjoy every minute of it.

At the end of the day, catching fish is great — but **making memories on the water is what it's really about.** These are the days you don't get back, and that's why we're going to keep fishing until we run out of daylight!

🔥 **THE SETUP THAT PUT IN WORK**

🎣 **ACC Crappie Stix**
We put those rods to WORK again!

➜ 6 lb ACC Crappie Stix Copolymer Line
➜ Legacy 1000 Series Reels
➜ ACC Crappie Stix rods

Sometimes lighter and simpler is just better.

🇺🇸 **Catch More Fish Plastics**
These plastics continue putting crappie in the boat for us. **Made in the USA and veteran owned.** That's something we're proud to support.

🎣 **THE CRAPPIE NEVER LEFT THE SHALLOWS… YOU JUST GOTTA FIND 'EM! 🐊🎣**

From open water right back into the shallow swamp where the **cottonmouths and gators are watching your every move**. 😂🐊🐍

Folks will tell you crappie leave the shallow water when summer gets here.

I don't buy it.

These crappie aren't packing their bags and leaving the swamp for the main lake just because the water is shallow. **The fish adjust to the conditions — and sometimes WE have to adjust with them.**

Some days you find them. Some days you don't.

We ALL have those **YAY days and NAH days.** That's fishing. 😂

Suck it up. Move on. Work harder. **Fish longer.**

Some folks are worried about their batteries dying before the day's over.

⚡ **We're just worried about running out of DAYLIGHT!**

And this time — **WE WON.**

Great day catching crappie in the swamp and another one of those trips you just can't put a price on.

And I'm going to tell you something else…

🎣 **NOTHING BEATS THE THUMP!**

You can cast for them. You can troll for them. You can use minnows. You can catch crappie a hundred different ways.

But when you're holding that jig pole and a crappie absolutely **THUMPS that jig**…

THAT'S IT. 🔥

If you're not jigging for crappie, you're missing out on one of the best parts of crappie fishing. No doubt about it.

From **10–15 feet of open water to skinny swamp water**, we're going wherever the fish take us.

🐊 **GATORS OUTDOOR ADVENTURES PARTNERS**

🎣 **ACC Crappie Stix** — Trout/Panfish rods, 10' & 11' jigging rods, Legacy reels and ACC Copolymer line.

⚡ **Dyness Lithium Batteries** — When you're fishing from daylight until you run out of daylight, dependable power matters.

🚤 **Warrior Boats** — Built for the shallow swamps, creeks and backwaters we love fishing.

🎣 **Pops Crappie Jigs** — Putting fish in the boat when it's time to get that THUMP!

**Today we WON.** 🐊🎣

And tomorrow?

Hell, we'll go find out. 😂

🎣 **SUMMER CRAPPIE ARE BITING! 10–15 FOW & LIGHT LINE WAS THE KEY 🔥**

The open-water crappie bite wasn't bad at all! I'm not going to lie — the dog days of summer aren't my favorite time to chase crappie 😂 — but summertime can still produce some VERY nice fish if you're willing to go find them and adjust to what they want.

For us, the better fish seemed to be hanging around **10–15 feet of water**, and one thing became pretty obvious:

👉 **GO SMALL OR GO HOME EMPTY-HANDED!**

**1/16 oz was the key.** We experimented with **4 lb, 6 lb and 10 lb ACC Crappie Stix Copolymer line**, and you'll see the difference for yourself in the upcoming video. That lighter setup made a difference.

🎨 **COLORS:** Keep it simple!
Natural, solid colors produced for us. We tried some of the brighter stuff, but the fish just weren't having it.

We caught fish both **jigging and casting**, and I honestly can't tell you that one was clearly better than the other. Both methods put crappie in the boat.

We also brought minnows because we figured they'd be hard to beat. WRONG! 😂 The crappie didn't hit the minnows nearly as well as we expected.

We compared them against **Pops Crappie Jigs** and **Catch More Crappie plastics**, and the artificial baits flat-out produced.

Our setups included:

🎣 ACC Crappie Stix Trout/Panfish rods
🎣 ACC 10' & 11' rods
🎣 1000-series Legacy reels
🎣 ACC Crappie Stix Copolymer — 4 lb, 6 lb & 10 lb
🎣 1/16 oz jigs
🎣 Pops Crappie Jigs
🎣 Catch More Crappie plastics

⚡ **Dyness lithium batteries** kept the boat powered all day.

And even though the Warrior Boats weren't on this particular trip, they're a huge part of Gators Outdoor Adventures and how we attack the shallow-water swamps, rivers and backwaters.

🎣 **Catch More Crappie**
🛒 **FishUSA** — One stop for the fishing tackle and electronics we use, including the new **Garmin LiveScope Plus System with LVS42-HD transducer**.

🎥 **FULL VIDEO COMING!**

We're going to show you the bite, depths, presentations and the difference we saw between the lighter ACC copolymer and heavier line. No guessing from the couch — we're putting it to the test on the water.

Summer crappie fishing may not be my favorite 😂, but when the dog days of summer hand you slabs like these, I'll take it!
