  1. Hello everyone, Im seeking advice on choosing a fish finder. I am going to purchase my first boat once I get my tax return back. Im looking at an Alumacraft mv1648. I want to have one mounted on the bow and one back(Im not good with the technical terms lol) but anyway I was hoping yall could help me find a good combo without breaking the bank. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
  2. Thank yall for your input. Im still considering all options. Honestly, Im looking for something that I can easily use by myself, do a few small tournaments, rough water isnt really a concern but with being a big man extra stability isnt a bad thing.
  3. If I wanna go to anna my bro has a bass boat that I could convince him to let me borrow but I dont like borrowing other peoples stuff. It makes me nervous and then I cant enjoy it. I was just wondering if anyone has heard of any problems with the boat itself not the logic behind my choices.
  4. It is a mod v not a flat bottom like a traditional jon
  5. I was considering trying a huddleston or a MS Slammer and I dont have a swim bait specific but I do have a flipplin/punchin stick that'll handle 2oz without a problem but havent tried any more than that. Ill definitely invest in a nice set-up once I get more confidence in them. Thank yall for all the support!
  6. Ive thought about going the jon boat route but the by the time Id finish the set up i want, the cost would be about the same as a older bass tracker. At that point I would rather put the extra bit of money to get everything brand new.
  7. I was wondering if anyone has been having any luck throwing swimbaits. I caught about a 3lb bass with a 4 inch but was thinking about upgrading the size of the bait to get bigger fish. Has anyone tried this or am I gonna be the guinea pig? Any tips or suggestions?
  8. Thank yall!

  10. Hey, I just wanted to introduce myself. Im a college student in Northern Virginia and I also work full time with any remaining time being spent on the water. Ive been fishing ever since I could stand. Ive only fished one tournament so far but would like to do some more. I joined the forum to pick up some advice on how to keep getting better as an angler.
  11. Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any feedback on these boats. Currently I am using/borrowing my brothers 14ft flat bottom john boat but want to get a boat of my own. We put the decks, carpet, rebuilt the outboard etc, so I am not afraid to a little work. I dont plan on doing any major tournaments maybe just a few small club run ones. I fish in the Occoquan reservior 99.9% of the time with the occasional trip to the Occoquan River. The max hp for the reservoir is 9.9 and the majority of the river is a no wake zone so motor size isnt really an issue. Any input would be great! Thanks!
