Needing some help and recommendations. I'm looking for a boat to both catfish out of as well as bass. I'm thinking no carpet, need rod holders, and a front deck for bass. Any brands to look in to that might fit all this?

I'm thinking center console myself with a front fishing deck. That's about as far as I've gotten so far...

The bullet sure is nice but I needed some extra seating and a large baitwell. Previous owner bass fished out of mine about 95% of the time. I really like the layout and the ride in the Champ. Wish I could have found a tunnel with a 250 on it.
