NRS Freestone For Sale! We only have a couple left of the NRS Freestone. One in the box, and one demo boat for sale. We love the NRS Freestone for when we get out of the tailwater mind set and look for moving waters! The Blackfoot River and the Dearborn are the two that we … Read more
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Come out and try the NRS Freestone today.
You want one? We got ’em.
Our DEMO Boat is for sale and you can take it on home on the M&M trailer or put it on your Snowmobile trailer. Either is a great idea. One in the box can be shipped to you for $5495. Easy peasy and you can inflate it for the weekend!
This boat weighs about 250lbs fully set up. Remarkable. You can rig it and toss it over the fence with your fishing buddy. That makes this boat perfect for those who like to sneak around and fish less pressured waters.
Lots of reviews out there on this maneuverable and lightweight hard sided raft like drifter. Our friend Gilligan on the Truckee River over in CA/NV says:
Rigid like a drift boat, bouncy like a raft. Here’s the take. Like a raft this thing can bounce off rocks, you can portage it, you can draft in very shallow water, you can put in cowboy style anywhere you want (don’t need a boat ramp,) it’s also self bailing like a raft, but you can close the valves and make it non bailing. Unlike a raft, it tracks like a drift boat, and maneuvers around the river with very little effort. It will hold weight (anglers) and anchors like a hard boat. The cool thing is this boat is quiet, no hull slap like a drift boat, fish have no idea you’re there.
We have a new NRS Freestone Drifter in the box ready to drop ship or we can sell you the already inflated and ready to go Headhunters Demo boat.
[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]This shoe is literally Crushing it. The NRS Crush is a hot seller right out of the spring gate as we move into our stunning summer.
Why so popular when we still have snow flurries about the local region?
Antricipation of course. A wanting and needing for warmth. Just the though of it is personally satisfying.
Buy a summer dream and wear them proudly.
The Headhunters staff speaks out about the NRS Crush
Mark says: The NRS Crush is what all the kids are wearing this year!
Dewey says: I’ve been wearing the “Crush” around the shop and they feel like slippers. I like that I can wear the shoe in the boat and wading. I am sure the “Crush” will make it to the golf course this year. You never no when you may have to play a water shot.
Sara says: Pretty comfy. Wouldn’t want to run a marathon in them. But then again, I wouldn’t want to run a marathon.
Braden says: Chicks dig ’em, so I dig ’em.
Ninch says: I like them because you don’t burn the top of your feet in these baby’s. Other than that, I rock my flips.
NRS Crush Watershoe @ Headhunters Fly Shop
Rugged materials, smart details and our signature Idaho style make the Crush your go-to shoe, day-in-day out, trip after trip, on and off the water.
This versatile, technically-capable shoe looks as good at the pub as it performs on the water.
The super sticky, siped rubber outsole provides a sure grip on wet rocks.
Quick-drying, DWR-coated Cordura® upper shrugs off the wear and tear of sticks and stones.
Ports in the sidewall quickly drain water away.
A removable foam insole supports and cushions the foot.
A “crushable” heel lets you also wear the shoe as a slip-on.
Includes two pairs of contrasting-color laces.
Custom-designed “launch box” includes a free NRS strap.
Marking sole.
D width
Idaho State logo’d and wiped sole.
The upper material is made of Cordura. A sticky siped marking rubber sole. The insole is EVA foam with a lace closure system and built in sidewall drainage. A crushable heel and D width makes this a must have for summer boat and fishing wear.
Is this shoe made for wade fishing? Yeah, here on the Mo we commonly wade fish in our flip-flops, so a case could be made for it here. On slippery bowling ball style rivers? Maybe. But the sole is totally grippy on smooth wet rocks.
This shoe is made for kicking it after fishing, before fishing, while in the boat, kayakers, and other water activities. You gotta be careful about the marking sole if you are rolling around in beautiful white gel coated craft. Those folks will hang you if you come aboard their boat with these black soled water shoes.
Available in half sizes 8-13. We got them in all sizes at the shop. The NRS Crush sells for $79.95.
We have not had them around long enough to do the smell test. That is certainly forthcoming.
The NRS Crush Watershoe is not available yet on our online store but they are ready for you at the shop
So far we have launched boats, rocked them on our porch for Coors Lite entertaining, and enjoyed the comfort level in the shop.
We got ’em here at Headhunters Fly Shop in Craig Montana. Your fly fishing function and fashion store deep in the Missouri River canyon. Actually centrally located in the best fly fishing town on earth. Where else can you get out of the boat just steps from a great fishing bar called Joe’s and a top shelf restaurant named Izaak’s.
[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/1″][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/93172739″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]The much anticipated NRS Freestone Drifter has finally arrived at Headhunters. We’ve received many questions about this “inflatable drift boat” designed by the whitewater/fishing guru’s at NRS. Many questions revolve around performance, but just as many are curious about the packaging and set-up. After all, this boat comes standard ground shipping. Yes, you can mail it.
Sara and Ninch are here to give you an idea about the size of the package, and what set-up entails. Pretty easy as you can see. Sara says it took and eighteen pack to build it. Not true. I had a few of those beers as well while operating the camera.
If you’re interested in a performance review and video, give us some time to properly use the boat in a variety of conditions and rivers.
If you’re interested in purchasing one, we have 1 available right now (the rest were pre-sold). If you buy an 18 pack for Sara or Ninch, they might help you set it up!
Demand is high, so give us a call and let us know if you would like to be on the next shipment list.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
It is the time of year when we see a ton of new boats coming out to the Missouri River for the inaugural float.
Why not christen your craft on the Missouri?
This is one more of the many new boats we see on the Mighty Mo every year.
Dump your boat in the Holy Waters, stay at the Craig Trout Camp, and eat at Izaak’s, drink at Joe’s.
A perfect weekend.
New Boat Smell
Do you have a new boat ordered for the 2014 year? Why not? Most of America is flat broke on this Tax Day. A great day to get on the horn and order yourself a deduction for 2014? Right?
You can top it off with a $300 Guide Trip with Headhunters. A $400 trip at Land of the Giants.
While we love the Adipose Boatworks Flow Skiff we are looking forward to the arrival of the NRS Inflatable Drift Boats, the Freestone Drifter. You can read more about it here as we tested and reviewed this boat last August. We are promised they are in the mail en route to Headhunters, the funnest fly shop in the world. Maybe today? Maybe.
Get yours at Headhunters Fly Shop
We will post here on this informational blog about the arrival, the first build, and the New Boat Smell that will surely ensue. We will have one, the NRS Freestone Drifter, for demo and you too can get on board with the hottest new boat of the young 2014 fly fishing season.
So if you like either and Adipose, a Hyde, a Clackacraft or one of these new babies above get your New Boat Smell out on the water for everybody to smell. Truly, one of the better aroma’s we can think of!
Happy Tax Day to you all. We hope your day includes a delicious lunch courtesy of Uncle Sam. Write it off. It is the American way.
If you follow our Facebook Page, you’ve no doubt seen a few pictures of the new “Freestone Drfiter” from NRS. Yes, the inflatable drift boat – or IDB – is here. And it’s pretty cool. It occurred to me that Headhunters is kind of like the Area 51 of human powered river boats. Sit on … Read more
