Anybody run a newer 619 or 620FS? - 07/21/16 01:07 AM

Starting the new crappie sled search and these are at the top of the list but it seems I gotta go 500 miles to find one!!! Have a Ranger buddy that might get me set up this winter but I figured I would ask around here and see if anybody has one or knows somebody that fishes from one. Pops is almost 70 w 2 fake knees and momma and peep might come slab snatching some if we had a more family friendly boat. I'm just worried if the front deck is bi enough and does it sit too high off the water to shoot docks easily. Anyhow if somebody here runs one I'm game for lunch and some gas money or come to E Tx and see me and we can try and put a slab in the boat somehow!

Thanks!!

I bought a fish and ski and I regret it. It's great for me fishing but my partner not so much. It has 2 livewell's but the front deck isnt big enough.

He's a growing young man. I've got two just like him. The snack bag makes us look like we are going on a week long vacation. woot

Have you considered a center console? Pretty easy to move around in. We shoot docks out of it and do some bass fishing. The front deck is not huge, but 2 people can fish on it.

I don't want a CC. They stick up too high! I've been known to hide under short bridges certain times of the year and catch a crappie or 2. CC wouldn't work at all for that!

Agreed!!! That is the only negative I have found, yet, with mine.
