Swamp Bash 2026

You have all heard those noisy airboats, a lot of people and anglers seem not to like them. Have you ever been on a ride on our local St Johns River system and the and view the spectacular nature and wildlife as well as the brotherhood of this group of controversial of boaters? If you ever get the opportunity should do it. I have enjoyed the ride several times and the experience is one you will remember for a lifetime, especially when the captain is your grandson!
