Want to go fishing on a boat

[BigDee]

I would say it also depends on the lake. We got an inflatable for the sole purpose of fishing Quincy reservoir. It was just a small 2 person but it served its purpose and we caught a lot of bass with it.

I would NOT want to be on an inflatable in anything much larger than Quincy. I had a 19' fiberglass boat for several years and there were several times weather moved in very quick and made the water very uncomfortable to navigate almost immediately. I could not imagine being in an inflatable raft when a big storm moves in and trying to handle 3' chop.

I would recommend getting an aluminum fishing boat with a 25hp+ outboard and an electric trolling motor if you want to hit anything bigger than Quincy. If you shop at the end of the season or in the winter I'm sure you'll be able to find a setup for under $1000. Don't be fooled by the asking prices on Craigslist everything is negotiable and getting 50% off someone's asking price isn't uncommon.

For the record, I was thinking of using something like this in places like Loch Lommand Fall River Reservoir.

There are plenty of small single person rafts for fly fishing and so on that would be perfect for this. The rafts above are not anything I would spend any money on.

I have a 17 foot Grumman aluminum canoe for sale. Only have one paddle but it also comes with two fishing style personal flotation devices..

I should have mentioned, the canoes spec tag says it is a five person canoe and it can take up to a 5hp motor with the right mounts that you would have to purchase...
