It's time for our first fishing boat and I've never owned one. We'll use it for freshwater fishing in TX lakes. Primarily bass, catffish, crappie. I'd like to get into fairly shallow water (no v-hull).
It'll be me and two kids mostly, but it needs to hold up to 4 people. It does NOT need to be fast.
Reliability is #1 for me so I don't really want an old boat, nor do I have time to fix one up. I'd prefer new or almost new. Just a generic get-around fishing boat.
I'd like to keep it around $30-35k with decent electronics. I know that means a cheap boat.
Aluminum hull may be best as we could end up in places with underwater obstacles.
Thoughts????
