Check this out: http://youtu.be/LjlK1IshnUcAll of the water I fish has good access so I don't have need for a dolly and in fact have never used the ins I already have. My problem is loading in and out of my truck. I'm working on a winch/pulley system that will fit into the cargo holes in the bed and provide me some leverage to lift it easily. A trailer would be great though too. A 10' prowler is light when I load it the first time but gets pretty heavy after a full DOW in August and moving it for the 4th time when I get home.

yeah that dolly is the same thing as modifying a normal dolly with planks. Up into the bed is the hardest part, and is awful on a boat ramp. with the dolly should be able to dolly the back end, easily bring it up to the tailgate and attach a line to a bow eyelet to hold in place then just walk back and lift it up on in and drop the dolly

Having a trailer and a winch or just a rope would be nice when loading. Has me seriously considering that route. I remember piss anting my old one around by myself and I was younger then too. I decided I am going to take my time and shop around before buying anything. I was surprised that there really were not that many on craigslist right now. There are a few though.

They get posted in various sections so I recommend using the main search feature on the left on the main page rather than the one in the sub category. Type 4x8 trailer (or desired size) and they will come up. Some are in farm and garden, some in general, some in heavy equipment, etc.

This is my 8 foot bass raider and honestly I love it. This 23" 7 pounder came out of a private lake yesterday. Biggest fish on the boat yet!

My tractor supply 4x8 trailer with 4 ft ramp works great for my 8 ft pelican. Glad I got it, and the last ad had them $100 off.

Nice fish and set up! Welcome to the gang, you need more scratches and dings on that boat!

A few guys petitioned to get the page changed to pond boats and float tubes. I'm hoping guys will stop posting here and create new threads with independent topics. I'd like to see this one locked. No reason to keep the bass busters to one meandering topic thread any longer.

Kinda like the never ending bank fishing thread... one main communal page that gets hit regularly for updtes and then people make new topics to discuss specific news/questions... I kinda like it that way too, makes it easy to see what is going on quick

Sorry guys. I didn't know who had noticed the title change. Plus I was just thinking of the new user who may try to find something using the search feature. I agree their is tons of great info but finding it is gonna be tough with 45 pages to work through.
But I agree, it's got an awesome view count going!
