I am looking at getting a Bass Buster Boat. Does anyone have any suggestions on to which on to get? OR, does anyone have a good used one that they are wanting to sell of get rid of? Just looking for opinions.

You might post this in classifieds as well. Try craigslist.

Rockwall Marine sells new ones. I got mine about a month ago. I really like it here on Callender Lake (350 acres). It took me a couple of time out to get use to the boat and move around it fron seat to seat.

But BYOB bring ya on bread for the ducks.

I just bought a 10.2 Basstender with trailer off craigslist. I've not had a chance to get my trailer hitch installed yet. (Kind of a long story there.) She came with a 36 lb thrust Minn Kota. Can't wait to try her out. My first boat!

I would recommend you look at the "Original Busterboat" by Slash Marine. Which are sold at Rockwall Marine.

I'm on my 3rd small boat. When it's time to replace I totally agree with meP2too on the Buster boat. I have looked at them all and feel it's the best. Go to www.busterboats.com

hey mean green my buddy and i have an eight foot buster boat they are great boats, we have a deck in ours and 50# tm and a merc 4.5 pushing it. its what you would call a mini bass boat. i would suggest getting a 10 footer becuase we are not as small as we used to be so it gets a little tight! but they are perfect little boats we have caught a lot of fish out of the boat since we got it. ours is an 1983 model and is still in good shape.

I have a 12 foot Bass Buster that my Grandfather and I used to fish tournaments in. We had it specially built from the factory with two live wells in it. They are wired and have lights. This one has a custom trailer, a graph, nice cushy seats, trolling motor and 5 h.p. Mariner. I am cleaning it up and doing some prev maint. I will probably have it up for sell in the near future. These are definitely the best two man boats out there. I will give the guys on the TFF first dibs. Thanks, Andy

I've never actually been in one of those boats but just from looking at them, I gotta wonder why none of those manufacturers have ever thought about making a mount for a bicycle style pedestal seat an option for the area upfront. I mean, I think lots of people would prefer being able to stand/lean on those things instead of being stuck in one of those seats the whole day. I mean, some of those boats are stable enough to do that, aren't they?

I fished Athens, Tyler, and the north end of Palestine for several years out of a 10.2 Basshound and caught lots of fish. I used to pull up at Hillcreek and Lake Tyler Marina in that thing and none of the jerks in big boats would even speak to me. I always got a kick out of that. Those small boats are great in skinny water as they are so much less intrusive.
