Hey guys,

The wife and I are looking to buy our first boat this fall. I originally was looking at bass boats because of the open layout and large casting decks, but now she wants something more family friendly (for the soon to be kids and family leisure) that has more than a bench seat for seating options. Lately I have been looking at walleye style boats but I just don't really see anything that has a decent rear deck for casting. The boats we have in mind are a Lund Impact 1875, aluma competitor, and ranger angler 1880 or reata. Are any of the ranger boats decent boats for casting? As well as smaller bodies of water? I primarily fish bass and musky in se wi but also musky and walleye fish hayward area. I primarily fish 1000-2000 acre lakes, once in a while shawano lake (6000?). I guess my biggest concerns are the rangers listed above don't seem very cast friendly unless there is a rear deck extension option I haven't seen. I like that the lund has a fold down rear deck. Fisherman series is out of our price range also. Thanks for any input from those who have used or own the boats listed.
