Im friends with the Coco family and I can tell you, they are 1st class. Good, honest, hard working family that builds great products that they stand behind. That 23hp Longtail ou have is a work horse. Go anywhere, do anything type of set up. Especially with a light boat like you have in the video.
I used to have an 8hp GoDevil on a pirogue in Louisiana. I got caught on low tide leaving my blind. It pushed me across mud flats with no water showing. Unbelievable! Got me home!
Thank you for mentioning the real speed. I get so tired of everyone exaggerating their top speed. It's not meant to go fast, like you said, it's meant to get you there and back.
My family has exclusively run go-devil’s for 20+ years and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that they are the best longtails ever. That 23 hp is bulletproof. They run even better with a skinny boat too
So went way slower than you thought, and got it stuck in pretty standard mud. I admire your truthfulness
I’ve owned both and currently run a Gatortail. The long tail is the best for bump and grind in cypress swamps. Wish I had a long tail rig in addition to my GTR.
Some mornings I have a 25 mile boat ride to the duck hole. Running 30-31mph on my 40hp GTR. Never going back to a longtail.
Haha ya I agree with that
Thanx for the video. I’ve enjoyed watching you guys smash geese and ducks. Trying to decide on a small mud motor for my four rivers EBAD. I thought I had my mind made up on a ppf long tail until mud skipper came out with a clutch on their small long tails. Mud skipper also has a small surface without a clutch drive that looks awesome. 🧐🧐
Get the ppf man, a lot more reliable than the mud skipper and the ppf frame is made in America.
@@tyronehoustonson2944 I was set on that one till Mud Skipper came out with a clutch
Prolly go with the ppf 😬
I've got both. A 35 GTR on my 1754 Gatortail and a 13hp Go Devil Longtail on a 1440. I'll take the big boat in almost all circumstances. The only thing I get nervous about in the big boat is getting it stuck. I like the small boat for small rivers, although it hits every single log in the river while driving. Ha.
Nice it’s good to have boat options
Would absolutly love to be able to tag along one of these hunts with you im from central wisconsin but have family up in michigan and have been really wanting to go up there but no clue and nohow of anyone!!
I run a backwater and I’m really happy with it, but it was a tough choice between that and the go-devil. I’ve heard good things about the go-devil as well.
Ya I’ve heard good things about the backwaters too
I went with a surface drive. To many trees here. Very few open water spots like you have.
Had multiple backwaters over the years in my opinion they are the best long tail on the market. I hunt the Mississippi River and made the switch to a 40 hdr mud buddy last year. I love it. The only issue I have with it is I don’t have the leverage like I did with the long tail. I definitely hit allot less things with the surface drive.
That’s for sure! I bet the Mississippi is awesome. I’m head there on the Iowa boarder this year
@@DuckGunChronicles what pool are you hunting?
@@jakebrooks2566 first time out there so not sure. It will be the central zone I believe not sure on the pool. Any pointers would be awesome haha
Will be my first year running a boat at all haha have a 10 foot aluminum flat bottom with a minnkota 55 pound endura max
Be safe! Boats help a lot but you gotta be safe on a small boat like that 🤙
Wait a Lund? Is that one of those barebones ones you can buy from the factory?
What size boat are you running and what speeds are you seeing with various weights/loads?
I have a predator 212 long tail on my 1232 jon boat. It makes my little boat sail on the water. Kind of sketchy running in wide open since I’m 6’ 240lbs. Im just waiting to push it too hard and sink it 😂
Lol 😂 it does sound sketchy
Just upgraded to a 23 go-devil on my godevil haul things a ripper
Nice!
Ask for permission first. Not that you have to with the Michigan laws. You can still access the water for boating, kayaking, sight seeing, fishing (as long as you don't anchor to the bottom), etc. You just can't "hunt" the water without permission. Now I say ask for permission first because it's good to lock down that spot. If you can't lock down the spot, then you're waisting your time scouting. If you scout first, and then think "well there's no ducks here, I'll skip on asking permission for this property", then you've done yourself a disservice for later on during the migration. What doesn't have ducks in August/ September, might be loaded in November.
It be nice if theyd figure out a way to have both and easily swap out to what tail prop you need without having to rekit the whole thing
I too own longtail godevil
I will not say it bulletproof
I will say it as close to bulletproof as it gets
Everything that is depended upon needs maintenance
When the bushings wear it a good thing to buy replacements and change them
At the same time measure the shaft and if out of spec change it too
Keep the maintenance up and in my opinion
You as close to bulletproof as it gets
What’s your max rpm’s at full throttle?
I can't find your podcast. Trying but no luck. Good luck this season
I listen do it on spotify
It’s called Duck Gun Podcast. It’s on every podcast sign I know of! I hope this helps 🤞
I remember you replacing props, are you doing it with this one? Keep up he great vids 👍🏽👊🏼🦆
This one has a stainless prop so nope I hope not haha
You misspelled “surface drive” in your video title! Lol ;) haha. Scout first! Need to know if it’s worth it !
😂😂 that’s a good one. Ya I think it’s worth giving it a shot this season
I like my 27hp Go-devil Long Tail better it`s on a 16ft. I also have a 23hp. Copper Head Surface on a 14 ft. The long Tail gets me through bad stuff better than the Surface Drive but the Surface is better for long runs.
Heck ya definitely agree on that
Longtails are the real go anywhere motor just not the get there fast motor
No Reverse is a deal breaker for me.
Ya sometimes that is useful
They look awesome but slow. When I think of long tail engine I think of the skinny boats that Korea has. Skipping up the river about 60 mph
You mean Thailand?
People at go devil are jam up. Long tails can go anywhere I ran 1 for years until I got in a bad car wreck they just to hard on my back I been running a surface drive since then just easier to run.
Ya those longtails take a lot but they are great
Prodrive will be better
