posting this in boats as well:
After spending my youth fishing the lakes of nebraska, it has only recently dawned on me the amazing fishing around Los Angeles. I'm looking of taking that next step and getting a pontoon but have a few questions.
The entry model I'm looking at is:
Outcast Fish Cat Streamer XL- IR Pontoon Boat
http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/store ... 00_175-5-1 (http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_91532_175005001_175000000_175005000_175-5-1)
First, is this any good? how dry does one stay in a boat like this if they row? I want something that keeps me dry enough that I can use it in the winter months. Target Bass in summer and Trout in winter. Mainly looking to take it out at the lagoon and jenks. But maybe even a lake like Piru.
Or do I need to suck it up and purchase a model like this:
Water Skeeterâ„¢ Chetco Pontoon Boat
http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/store ... 00_175-5-1 (http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_84259_175005001_175000000_175005000_175-5-1)
My concern with something like this is it's too much boat and might be too heavy.
Also, what else is required as I hope to get out there soon!
Thanks
