Fishin' Machines

I don't have a boat. My dad has a Lund Pro Sport 1700. It's pretty nice. About 8 years old but still works very well and was made of good quality. I love the boat, it's very comfortable.

The next one he buys will be smaller and less luxurious though. You really don't need anything more than a "Mr. Pike" or something. Just a bit more than a tin boat, and with carpets and a console, livewell etc, is perfect!

All boats are good. To be honest, they all get you to the same place, some just a little faster and more comfortable, but to each his own.......

Nice pics!

OKOK

Looking at the E-TEC150HO(Wouldn't that be nice

) before she hits the water....New lowrance X96 graph to be installed shortly along with the trolling motor. Still working out what unit is going to be up on the dash....

Will put the old fish finders and bow mount on the Alluminum or sell it.

I have a 14' Lowe and all other toys...everything was built by the dealer....Small boat to go around river and small lake with 25 HP long shaft....I love this toy cause i dont need a big truck to pull it...I can pull with my van or my High Lander.....
Ofcourse i love to have a bigger one so i can go to the big lake for trout and salmon but ...no $$$$

I had the pleasure of fishing out of a few Lowe boats in the past and must addmit they are one of a kind. When you have all the bells and whistles it don't matter how big of a boat you have !

Im gonna post pics of my boat when i get the chance to take pictures. Unfortunatly the engine just stopped working, so it's in the shop.

I have a 89' Edson boat with a 60HP, it's a side console, nothing really special, i have 1 livewell in the front, a 36lbs thrust bow mount trolling motor, and 2 manual downriggers. It's old, but it does the job for the amout of times i go fishing with the boat. I am mostly fishing from shore, and i catch bigger fish...

Pics coming right as the boat comes out of the shop

Heres my ride.............

2007 Princecraft 25 Four Stroke Merc , 40lb thrust trolling motor

For whatever reason it seems too attract a lot of bass , pike , and even
the odd Musky

Hey guys, since my boat is still in the shop, and i said i was going to post pictures of it, and it dosent look like its coming out soon

I looked for some pictures of it on the computer, and found some

It's not the best, not close to it, but i guess it does the job...With a 60HP in the back, and a bowmount 36 pound thrust trolling motor

And it also had downriggers, which i have no clue how to use

There it is! It's a little old, would need some new carpet, but it's not really about the ride, it's about the fish you catch
