For a fishing rig, I'll never own anything but a center console again. Also, I'll never own another fishing boat with carpet in it again either.


If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space!

I was thinking about that exact thing. A center console is in the running also.

Sirjet, if a CC is already in the running, forget the other 2.

I am a big fan of CC. The only thing holding me to the Pontoon is. I have a fair amount of friends that are in Wheelchairs.

Well that kinda takes you back to the room of a toon. I had a tri-toon for several years, it fished just fine.

This Sirjet^^^^^^
I really like the room the toon gives me.
Those friends will really appreciate you taking them fishing.


What has happed to you does not define who you are-

HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Center Console boats are great, but not wheelchair friendly. Pontoon boats have a lot of room and are pretty nice to fish out of.

Getting into shallow narrow places where eater kitties and crappie like to spawn----advantage bass boat and jon boat
Comfort and shade-------advantage Pontoon
Most fishable boat for all catfish locations-------advantage Center Console.
CC or bass boat fits multi species better in southern waters but a CC is the better all around fishing machine.
No dedicated catfish boat should ever have carpet.

Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

With wheelchairs in mind I'm guessing a pontoon boat is the only option.
