Super User South FLA Posted September 1, 2012 Super User Posted September 1, 2012 i hate looking at the pictures of you Florida guys. Nice looking background and knowing your water has giant bass. Illinois isnt as fun as Florida. Stop hating and come on down, the water is warm and the bass are BIG! Quote
RyneB Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I might be heading down next year. The wife used to work at Disney and wants to go back. Might pull the Ranger. Any suggestions? Quote
KansasBASS9948 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 This is my buddy's brand new Phoenix 920. To my knowledge this boat isn't even out on the market yet, but through his sponsorship with Phoenix he just received it. Talk about a fun rig to fish out of! We shot the video on Perry lake in Eastern Kansas. Top speed in this video was about 74.6 if the GPS was correct. It's powered by a Mercury Pro XS 250. Quote
RyneB Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 beautiful Nitro. I have always loved that red/ black on white. I always go to BPS site and go to the "build your own" nitro and experiment with colors. Its a lot of fun. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 Ha, i have done that on the site many times as well! Even though many people bash Nitro i have always found them sexy & sleek. When i found this one at a great price i jumped on it. Quote
RyneB Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 i had my mind dead set on a nitro, then a used Ranger became available at a deal i couldnt pass up. Quote

Add-ons: YakAttack GearTracs, RAM Rod Holders with YakAttack Screwballs, RAM Fishfinder Mount w/ Lowrance quick release ball mount My "bass boat" has been parked in the garage for three years. I've been fishing out of my Trident ever since. I can't cover the entire lake like the other bass rockets, but man, the places I can go that they can't. I love my kayak and I doubt I ever go back to my "bass boat." YAK ON! Quote

jhoffman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 My first bass boat, 1979 Terry, I redid this entire boat including transom and decks, then sold it. It got a lot of wows on the water for being 14' I went about 4 years without a boat, I was into motorcycles Now I have a 1992 17' Tracker, no full on shots, but my boy loves it 1 Quote
RangerDanger96 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I haven't posted on here for a while! Here is my 2000 Ranger 522DVX with a 225 Merc pushing her along the waves. It is a wonderful boat that will last me a long time! It has all the bells and whistles, but I've learned a lot of the time I'm the reason I'm not catching fish!!! 1 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 20, 2012 Super User Posted December 20, 2012 Now I have a 1992 17' Tracker, no full on shots, but my boy loves it Awesome picture! Quote
jhoffman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Thanks, hes a maniac. He was just over 12 months when that pic was taken. Hoping to get him to reel one in this summer. This is going to be his first christmas where he knows whats going on. Quote
Jig Meister Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Here is my kayak, Emotion Mojo Angler. I do not know anyone that owns one, they are not your popular angler like wilderness and hobie are. This was a gift from my wife, so I can't complain at all, personally my dream is a Jackson Coosa, but this is wonderful for a first kayak. Upgrades: PriahnaMax 190c Transducer arm on the bow. Ram mounts for both Anchor Trolley Surf to SUmmit hot seat Have a nice PDF Basic paddle good cart for transport. Future Plans: Silent traction system is being shipped as I type this. Also going to drill a hole in front of the console where the wall is between the cabin and the bow hatch and run a clear tube for the electronics along where the console is. Want to get a GoPro and mount for it Want to get a good flag or other means of making myself seen better. Overall I like the kayak a lot, I can side saddle very easy, have not tried standing up yet (only been out twice before winter) but the kayak is very very stable, I tried to topple her over but ended up sliding out. She isnt the fastest but good speed anyone, tracks very well and is easy to turn. I like that the center console is removable so if I find something to replace it I will not have a hard time to do that. Also the console has a lot of room under it to run wires to keep things out of the way. I am 5'9" and 180 and have no problems at all fitting inside, reaching anywhere or getting what I need. My only real complaint is that there is no hatch in the cabin or in the stern area. However I plan on adding two 6 inch hatches w/ bags in the future. I only would ever use 3 rods at once so there us more than enough storage for rods and gear. Quote
Super User Teal Posted January 5, 2013 Super User Posted January 5, 2013 Figured I would show mine off too. She's an oldie but a great boat. And still looks fairly new! 1996 Javelin 400TE 19' 10" 200 Johnson Venom 1 Quote
tbone1993 Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Now I have a 1992 17' Tracker, no full on shots, but my boy loves it Great picture, every time i see a rod bowed like that i picture the tip snapping lol Quote
jhoffman Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 I wish that rod would snap... its an ugly stick. Its likely getting replaced this year as well as the rod holder flipped around the right way. I only got to use this boat maybe 4 times last year cause I got it so late. Quote
