just wondering what kind of boat every one fishes out of

2008 BLUEWAVE 1900 VLC
90hp Suzuki 4-stroke.

24 ft pontoon with 18 rod holders

17 ft. Bass Tracker,40 horse Evinrude,with 10 driftmaster rodholders.

14ft 1951 lonestar with a 1966 9.8hp merc

22 ft. CC 150 Merc. 24 Bee Ready rod holders (just added two more rail mount sets of 3)

A 1968 Hollywood.

and on occasion this>

1997 Fisher 21 DCFX Tournament Bass Boat. Chased those green things before I woke up and realized there were other fish to go after that were fantastic to stick in the frying pan. Wish I would have bought a center console, but I have a fishng buddy that helped me trick out my boat and made some really going points about how solid a boat it is. It's paid for , but not as ergonomic as a center console. Fish don't seem to care, though, right? LOL!

1967 thunderbird 15'trihull with 85 johnson seahorse soon to have 10 rodholders.

You got me by 1 year so I'm going to need 11 rod holders!

Now if I could only catch the fish you do.

20' pontoon, 90hp mercury

2000, 19 ft. Godfrey deck boat with a 125 Mercury. Has 15 Beeready rod holders plus 6 other rod holders.

2008 18ft classic blue wave--lot of bee ready rod holders Wide View with gps on consol lowrance on front.115 4 stroke yahamah & its for sale---972 872 9920--mike

A free one. This boat cost me nothing to acquire and I haven't had to fix a thing on it in almost 2 years. I get a little wet and it doesn't go more than 25 mph, but it beats having a boat payment. Especially since I only get the chance to fish a few times each month.

Since the picture was taken, I've added 9 BR rod holders and an LMS-522C

A Bluewave PureBay 2200 with a 200 Evinrude E TEC

1985 model 18' Starcraft CC with 12 Bee Readys, and 4 other rod holders, that are going to be replaced by 6 more Bee Readys sometime after Santa Clause goes back to the North Pole!!!

Good Luck to Ya!!!

1986 17ft. Carolina Skiff with a 115 Johnson. It only has 6 rod holders, but we're getting more! I'm still learning.

19' Carolina Skiff everything from LMBass to Kings!!!!

2003 Fisher Pro Hawk 17.5' with a 90hp Mercury. 9 home-made pvc rod holders. I'm not cheap-just thrifty!!

1987 Predator 16' with the passenger console cut out and 12 BassPro rod holder bases around it (6 actual holders), with a 1985 30hp Evinrude. Only runs 25-26 mph with me alone, around 23 with another person, but I'm still learning the ropes a bit on running lakes, especially when it's a little bit rougher (e.g. 1-1 1/2' waves in this boat) or lots of wakeboard boats out. Keeps me out of trouble by not being able to go very fast.

05 Blue Wave V-Bay 180, 06 90 yammy 2strk w/10 brand X rod holders with home-made rail mounts.
Oh yeah, I forgot, 4 built-in rod holders for trollin.

Oh, I forgot to mention I have enough rod holders to fish 36 rods all around the boat.

Well you can see it in my sig. It is a 1979 Deckette II Deckboat with a mercrusier 120 I/O. Paid $800 for it last year and have put some $$ into it. It is still a work in progress, but it gets me to the fish.

Mines pretty much like Parttime's

Chase, It only takes my 12 rod holders around my boat to catch fish...Whats the deal????



I really dont need the 24 footer, my 22 is awesome and does everything i want it to, Guess i got my wants and needs mixed up....WOW! i believe i have that conversation with my kids quite often!

24' Carolina Skiff 115hp 4-stroke Suzuki.
I have 14 Drift Master rod holders, Lowrance 17m and 28HD, and PLENTY of room for the shad tank, coolers, anchors, nets, and whatever else is needed.
What I take into mind when I look at a boat is fishability, safety, ride, room, and fuel economy. My boat has shallow draft and plenty of room to fish from. I feel that my boat is about as stable as it gets, it rides VERY nicely in rough water, has plenty of room, and the 'Zuk gets great mileage. I can fish hard all day on 10-15 gals of fuel. The boat holds 27 gallons so I have a good emergency backup.

22 ft skeeter bay 200 yamaha

1985 Astroglass 151 Combo w/ 75hp Merc

Its brown and gold with a big TFF sticker on the driver's side.

48 year old 15' Duracraft w/ a 28 year old 18hp Mercury. No rod holders (usually) but I do carry a 4-foot dip-net for my fish. :0

Stevo

didn't say I used them all at the same time, just like to keep my options open on where I can cast out! I only need 6 rods to catch me some fish

2009 Tracker PT 170 TX 50hp Merc

1989 ranger fisherman, the original motor gave out a few years back and I love the boat so much i put a brand new Johnson 115hp on it. Great boat for crappie and catfishing.

I hope that thing sticking out in the center isn't the seat.

That's how he keeps it aired up Bama.

So........a gas cap of sorts?

Yeah no smoking allowed within 50 foot of the tube or

1970 Ouachita,Mercury 200 series 20 hp thunderbolt ignition-
6 rod holders but Im getting a couple more for the deck

1972 Kingfisher 156. 15.5 foot with a 50 hp Evinrude. Why do we have to keep talking about rod holders? I have 2 rod holders. One on each arm.
I think my boat is broke! I have not caught fish since I bought it!

You have'nt made Sandjohnny mad have you? He's got a voodoo he can put on boats. Just ask Bamaboy

I havnt met him, But I want to publicly apologize right now for anything I may have done. lol

I met Bama once. He wasnt catch nothing, and his wife was catching like crazy. Must just have the curse on the front of the boat?

It's not a bad idea to every once in a while call and apologize just incase.

'03 bayliner.....

1995 BassTracker Pro 17. No rod holders yet but I think my dear wife and daughters are going to hook me up for Christmas. I have been showing them the picture of big blues caught while drift fishing and I think they now have the fever too.

Which ever kind they will let me ride in

16.5 Alumacraft Lunker w/50hp Honda

Please, can we just leave the truth out of this. Damn Johnny!!! Besides, I was just the guide, scouting.

It,s called a bank boat lol, never breaks down or needs gas

2008 Tracker Tournament V-18 with 90hp Mercury Optimax. Six Driftmaster rod holders with flush mount bases. Great for all types of fishing, just wish I had more real estate for my 3 yr. old!

16' grizzly 50hp johnson. vrroom vrroom!

2005 22 ft SeaPro w/150hp yamaha. 12 Bee Ready's and 15 HeadShaker Tournament Series Holders. Has a t-top which is great for holding your dip net so it will blow out on the way home from the lake. Lost 3 this year alone. I don't know how much gas it will hold, I always stop at $100.00. That will run you till about noon.

Roy
I know your pain on the dip net blowing off of the t-top. I have lost one and my new one floats so I have picked it up a couple times on the water.

I guess my little Skeeter isnt fast enough, I have yet to lose a dip net while running down the lake. On the trailer on the way home I have so much stuff piled on it that the boat would have to fly off the trailer to lose the dipnet.

if you set it on top of the T-Top they will fly off at about 15mph. They give you just enough time to go "Oh CARP!" and reach for it then they take off!
