New Boat research

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

New Boat research

Post by Jul0682 »

Good day Everyone.
A few years ago a sold my Lund Impact 1775 and miss it a lot. That being said, I am now looking at getting back into a boat but a tiller model. I am currently looking at either the Lund Pro Guide or the Crestliner Pro Tiller, looking at any feed backs on these model or your personal opinion on any other models with a casting deck and rod storage similar to the Lund and Crestliner.

Any feed back is always appreciated and of course we get to chat :)

Cheers

I've been running a Smokercraft Pro Tiller for many years with a merc 4 stroke
It's been a great boat but may not be as roomy as those models you mention

However you may wish to consider the G3 line
My buddy who eats and sleeps fishing and boats did his homework and went that way

Good Luck

I don't have a lot of experience with newer tiller boats, but a guy I have fished with a few times on the Miramichi River runs an Alumacraft 18.5 foot tiller. Very nice boat.
