Full Throttle Woolbert
(The boat that built the legend)
Woolbert doesn’t just wade in; he arrives in style. And by style, we mean a flat bottom boat painted with trout spots and powered by a motor he and his pappy tinkered with until it purred. This isn’t just a boat — it’s Woolbert’s secret weapon, the vessel of a thousand inside jokes and the ticket to those hard-to-reach honey holes.
Every scratch on that hull tells a story of a backwater bend or a dawn run upriver with friends laughing over the roar of the engine. Woolbert’s boat is a little piece of home — a memory of afternoons spent turning wrenches, dreaming of the next cast, and chasing the kind of freedom only found in open water. In the world of Woolly Hookers Fly Co., it’s never about going slow. It’s about chasing sunrise, outpacing worries, and knowing that sometimes full throttle is the only way to live.

Artist’s Note: This piece was inspired by my own hand-painted flat-bottom boat — a nod to craftsmanship, freedom, and the bond between river and art. The brown trout pattern on Woolbert’s boat isn’t random; it's a custom trout pattern by hand, brushstroke by brushstroke. It’s the same coppery tone that flows through the brand’s soul — and a tribute to days spent with my Pappy bringing the boat to life. This design is Woolbert carrying my love for that boat right onto the river.
