We like to troll. :cool: Hard to beat this style boat for trolling and so glad I found this boat. Hard to believe it's only 16.5ft. Can't imagine how big @Sytes boat feels.

Dang that's one hell of a crappie. Maybe I need to forget hunting and go west for the fish.
 
On the boat this weekend:

Disregard the gut... Cameras don't like 'mericans who drink Coors

This is the stylized reverse pose with fun fighting smallie. Should have pulled a stretch arm towards the camera... Coors fugs w/ pictures regardless camera or Coors drinker.

This is a proper largemouth pose. Not too far, not too close. Just Coors idealistic.

Camping - fun.

Just wrapped up fixing two months of chips and dings from the walleye slip in Detroit.

Time to start dragging it around the state chasing chrome.

It does a lot of things really well, but doesn't excel at any one thing. Only real complaint with it, I wished it sat higher in the bow.

Hilarious.
I adjusted the idle on my outboard and she's purring like a kitty cat.
The above reminds me of a " craft" I saw on an irrigation reservoir in Eastern Montana. Some farm kids made their own pontoon boat out of some irrigation pipe. About 25 feet long, with a homemade shanty perched on top. Ladder to the roof where they had a 2 x 12 diving board over a tire for the spring factor. Wish I had taken a picture. Also wish I had asked permission to board,drink a beer, and jump off the board. They were having a gas.
So refreshing compared to the Bozeman punks driving Daddys 100k wake boat.
