I bought a 19 in 2010 from Bill. I run on the Wisconsin River between the Castle Rock and Wisconsin Dells dam. It’s a sand bottom river m. I’m running a 115 étec . Great boat. I often Slide Over sand bars that are a 20’ wide. At speed with no problem. I’m thinking about getting a new 21. Nice video thanks

[@TexasFishingForce]

Awesome. Thanks for watching!

I’ve had two Flats Cats now. A 1992 21’ and now a 2023 21’. These boats are absolutely amazing. The boat 100% sells itself. My dad and two uncles are proud Flats Cat owners as well. I think I’ve been on about every brand out there and I’m a lifer for the Flats Cat. Chris is a stand up guy and extremely sharp. The customer service from his company is unmatched.

i am interested in this boat & intend to sea trial near term but would you mind sharing your perspective on how the 21' flats cat performs in some deep, choppy river / bay water. I need to cut across or go through this type of water in order to access most flats I am interested in fishing. thank you

[@theguywholovesfishing]

The 21’ takes chop like nothing. Obviously, when going through bigger waves take more caution. When I go through bigger waves I like to try to match the speed of the waves and hit them at a 45 degree angle. I’ve had better luck with the Flats Cat than many other Bay boats in rougher water. I hope this helps.

@@theguywholovesfishing very helpful, much appreciated

[@abecantu4685]

Very informative video, but I would tone down on the background music a little bit. It gets a little annoying, and I’d rather hear what they have to say versus background music.

Great vid I have started looking at boats and I just might give them a look thanks Mike

[@TexasFishingForce]

You should definitely check them out.

[@reyesrolando1964]

Beautiful

[@hectorvasquez5957]

Sweet!

[@user-fd1ck6pz3k]

Nice looking boat. Just curious how do you get to fuei tank if theres a problem with tank or lines.....

[@Dcj01]

Chop up the floor haah

[@FrankJohnson-r3e]

I need to replace the deck on my '75 Aquasport 170 and I was thinking of using 1/2" Nidacore with tapped aluminum backing under the console and helm seating/leaning but this "K-300" has me intrigued. I Google K-300 and I'm having trouble finding it. I thought, at one time, to use Coosa but from what I understand it too can allow screws to work loose. Can you tell me who makes K-300, maybe a link? 🤔 Would be appreciated 🫡 11:02 I like that diamond stitch 👍

[@jonparkoff]

Pretty cool.

[@TexasFishingForce]

Thank you!

[@FirstlightmediaNet]

Chris Mapp is a stand up guy. Excited to see what he does with Flats Cat Boats.

[@TexasFishingForce]

I agree! Chris is a great guy.

[@kevinlynch6799]

That background music really kills the audio! Recording folks talking with typical factory noises is tough enough. At the 15:00 mark music finally stops. Looks like an interesting Flats boat. Be well.

[@chrisbaeppler3873]

How would a boat like this be in Florida inland lakes? How would this compare to a bass boat? Any advice is appreciated.

[@TexasFishingForce]

Ive never fished inland lakes but this boat excels in shallow running and stable performance.

[@sharonbraselton3135]

[@davidmcpeak8327]

Do you have any owners in the SWFL area? I would really like to see one in action....

[@dwaynenew2236]

Nice

[@TexasFishingForce]

Thank you

[@abecantu4685]

How smooth is it in the chop?

[@Dcj01]

Like every other boat bumpy

[@weirdfishweirdfish6636]

What manufacture is the support pole for your trolling moter?

[@TexasFishingForce]

StayMo

[@bigk3381]

Congratulations Mike.!!! I hope your new adventures are very prosperous. I personally believe Flats Cat is an awesome boat and isn't it funny to think that a boat will outlive you.? "Tight Lines and Full Limits To Ya"

[@TexasFishingForce]

Thank man, I love my flats cat! They will definitely outlive me, lol.

[@bjgreen0001]

2in water huh? The prop to motor is bigger than 2 inches, if you don't put prop in water no way to get up on plane

[@jamesa9lpiopatton419]

Most people can afford a boat go get old trihull with trailer and put new 25on it out door for five years under 8000 with like new boat

[@TexasFishingForce]

That’s one option but definitely won’t be able to perform like a flats cat.
