for grins what kind of boats do folks run ?

I have a 14' x 5' Pondtoon, only power is a 40lb thrust Minn Kota foot contoled trolling motor.  It's my crappie catching machine. Since this picture was taken I've upgraded to Wise big man seats with arm rests. I fish private lakes and the owner hates Crappie in his lakes so I keep track of how many I catch. 2290 last year but a little slow this year only 1237 so far but knee replacement surgery in the morning with slow that down even more.

Wow! I like that boat! Does it need a special trailer?

[Blackhawk19]

No, just a regular trailer, it's almost a cross between a pontoon and a tunnel hull, it has a flat bottom.

I hope the surgery and the rehab go well.  Really nice; well laid out and set up rig.  I have looked at those.  They seem to be a near perfect craft for still water if you can put in close to where you fish.  I wish they were around back when I duck hunted.

Sweet looking ride there Blackhawk. I like it a lot. I don't crappie fish, but I would in that! It looks roomy enough.

Does a Hobie Pro Angler 14 count as a boat?

If it floats and you can fish out of it; it's a boat.  I have wished many times I had a decent Kayak.
And yours is a really nice kayak.

Thanks guys

Try craigslist for your area. That's where I found mine. It wasn't the one I wanted but I saved a bunch of money and I'm really happy with my OK.

I maintain an Otter brand Final Attack 8-footer, 44" beam.  I have a choice of 2 different Power Plants, a Minn Kota Endura30 for Fresh, and a Minn Kota Riptide40 for the Salt.  I'm pondering rigging the beast for Twin Motors so I can walk the vessel, but haven't taken any steps in that direction.  The rig, as it sits now, has Manual Trim & Tilt, Nissan Frontier Trailer, DieHard Marine Platinum fuel tank, Yeti YT50 Seat that doubles as a Fish Box.  She's rigged right, Boys, and tops-out at just under a jog.
