cheap bass boats
Tips for a dedicated bass/inshore fisherman In Louisiana who can't afford a boat?
I am a good dedicated fisherman in Louisiana but I can't afford a boat. Is there any tips for me? I will take tips for where I can get a cheap bass boat or flat boat tht is in good condition. And If there is any way I can get a free one than that would be great. I will also take tips about great places to fish from the bank, or a way to make money fast to get a boat.
Surely you can afford $200-$300???? You can get a used canoe or Jon boat for that price. (Try looking in your local newspaper or on Craigs-list)
One of the best fishing boats I EVER had was a canoe. Canoes are easily transported, can get into bayous/lakes & rivers larger boats can't, and you can slowly ADD things to them, (like swivel seats, Trolling motor, fish finders, Outriggers, Etc.), to make them more comfortable and "fishing/sea worthy". (Check out this "dream" flat-back canoe called a Gheenoe- http://www.customgheenoe.com/gallery2/v/LoTide25/IMG_0307.jpg.html ) I had one of these, (Gheenoe) when I was in my 20's.
To be honest, I caught BIGGER Bass out of my tricked-out canoe than either my Flats boat or my Bass boats.
Why?
Like I mentioned above, you can launch a canoe almost ANYWHERE. Imagine the implications to this...????
All those little ponds and small bayous you might have "eyed" on your way home from work/school immediately become accessible!!
Of all the Bass I've caught over 7-8LB's, SIX were caught in small waters where larger Bass/Flats boats could not go.
Although you can use a Jon/canoe on bigger waters, it defeats the purpose of a smaller "launch anywhere" boat. And don't think you can't learn how to Tournament fish from a smaller boat- Mike Iconelli started his career fishing club tourneys out of a "slow", "small", 16FT Jon boat.......(as did many tourney pros).....and WON consistently.
Think about it!!!
If you buy a canoe/jon at least your on the water and fishing! Holding out to get the "perfect" Tourney boat or Flats boat, (for FREE), is an absolute waste of your time! You can "learn the local water" just as easily in a smaller boat than a larger.....
SAVE your money!!!.........You'd be surprised how cheap you may be able to find a used canoe or Jon boat....
Just remember- The fish don't know or care what kind of boat you have.....!!!!! And when you start bringing stringers of fish back to the ramp, neither will anyone ELSE!
Bottom-line??? I guess you have to ask yourself- How "dedicated" are you?
Hope this helps ya??? Go check Craigslist! Good luck in your search!
PS- Thumbs up to Unmam- He is totally right about the current new boat buying scene...If you could save even more mullah who knows what you could purchase?!!!

Lowrance Broadband Radar on Bass Boat
Cheapest product to make boat have power trim?
I have a 17 ft bass tracker with a 40 hp johnson tracker outboard.....
I have buttons on the throttle and on a console in the front of the boat next to the trolling motor plug in
Obviously these buttums dont work because the boat wasn't installed with the tilt/trim
i was wondering if there is a cheaper way than a 650 dollar
CMC Power Tilt and Trim
i plan to install all of the necessary components myself to help on saving money
Please Help
Bottom line, the CMC will work and that's a fair price (retail). The other answers are Ok but finding a used intermediate housing with trim is a very low percentage because so few of these engines were so equipped and trim tabs will help but they will not do the same job a T&T will do. I think I'd look for a used 50 HP or 70 HP that has a T&T. Sell your current motor and pick up a used larger engine (3 cyl). Stay away from Force or other discontinued motors. Go with Johnson/Evinrude or Mercury.

u do have a point that is why i went with the z521
“The US has a middle class primarily because of progressive social legislation, including graduated taxation, Social Security, and financial regulations.”
Given that the middle class in America arrived before any of those things, you're quite obviously wrong.
“And answer me this before you start deriding me as another brainless liberal: Medicare is a government-provided service. How does the government provide services without revenue?”
Medicare is an insurance provider. It operates the way all insurance providers do, by collecting the premiums.
Except, with Medicare, they take those insurance premiums and buy bass boats for all the managers.
(Not really, but buuying bass boats for everyone would be more productive than what they actually do)
kathy,
