During closed seasons, retention, possession, and landing is prohibited and and all catch must be released. MBG has always been a great innovative company by always working with the customer’s needs and I look forward to the next best fishing platform they come out with.For any dates not listed in the "Season" column, the recreational fishery is closed. I originally started with a 2200TE and could not think of a better boat to fit my needs, until the 2500 Hybrid was released. From sight fishing pompano on the inshore flats, or live baiting for snook to bottom fishing and deep offshore runs on flat summer days or even swordfishing, just about every species can be targeted with ease. I could not think of a more versatile boat for any application on the east coast. I have been a Pathfinder customer for several years now and currently have a 2500 Hybrid. I absolutely love the flexibility to run offshore in the morning and finish off the day inshore on the flats. Points like storage, ride, and fish ability make this bay boat rise to the top. The attention to detail on the layout of the Pathfinder 25 Hybrid is incredible. Rick Murphy, Homestead, FloridaĪs a full-time guide for nearly 20 years, I’ve come to depend on my Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid day in and day out. I have been there since Day 1 and I hope to finish my career in those brands. Many of the 143 tournament titles that I have won, were in a Hewes, Maverick, or Pathfinder. In my opinion, it is the best all-around boat to guide out of inshore. It is the boat that I choose to guide out of and to film most of the Sportsman’s Adventures episodes. Today, I still run a 23’ Pathfinder HPS with that same Yamaha 250 SHO. When a boat floats on 10 inches of water with no water in the live well and does 60+ mph with 3 guys and equipment, it does not take long to run from the popular destinations of Florida Keys into the backcountry of the Everglades. In 2012, I got my first 23’ Pathfinder HPS with a Yamaha 250 SHO and it changed backcountry fishing in the Florida Keys, as we know it today. I cannot think of a better way to launch a new brand than with a championship. In two days, we caught 5 bonefish and 60 redfish, of which 48 of the redfish were caught on fly which is the highest score ever in the Redbone. And to be truthful, the all-time Redbone record is held by what was the first 17’ Pathfinder Tunnel. I was there in the beginning when the Pathfinder Boat Company was started. “I started with Hewes Boats in 1987 and to my great fortune, Scott Deal purchased that brand from Bob Hewes in the early 1990s.
