I have been looking at lots of fishing pictures on various sites and it dawned on me that we fisherman use pretty every conceivable type of boat to get to the fish... So I was wondering what everybody here rides to get to the fish... I personally run a 22ft. Pathfinder Bay Boat with a Yamaha 150 2 stroke... Rigged for inshore and offshore; and I fish primarily out of Florida... I use it to catch Snook, Tarpon, Reds, Bonefish, and Trout inshore... And Sailfish, Wahoo, Tuna, Dolphin (Dorado), Grouper and Snapper offshore... My objective this year is to add a Marlin and Swordfish to my list of "Done its"... Here is my ride...  |

18' Trophy, 115 4stroke and 9.9 merc 4 stroke kicker, Scotty electric downriggers, an Ace pot puller that mounts on an extra scotty mount, Penn 320's for salmon fishing, and penn 113h's modded to Yellowtail specials for halibut. I fish, crab and shrimp in Puget Sound and the Straights of Juan de Fuca. This is the only picture I have on the water, one of the other boats in our fishing club took the picture, and if you can believe it, my buddy later said, "I didn't really think she was taking a picture".....  |

This Float tube is the love of my life. Started Tubing about 7 yrs ago and love it... Over the years I have owned 4 boats. Just cant justify the expense any more.. Have friends with Personal boats all over So Calif. So getting out in a boat isnt a prob, fresh & Salt, plus I use the Cattle boats, up to 7 day so far. This was on Lake Arrowhead a few yrs ago. Great Smallie & LMB lake...  . |

My battle with cancer and then getting crushed forced me into downgrading from the boat below to a 21' Cuddy and a 14" flatbottom skiff. I can't bielieve I was so fat back then,   If things get worse I'll be running one of these "boats"   |

True - but, as Wallace would say, you must be tough as a billy goat's knee now...   |

Some days are better than others and at least I'm around to complain.
