All depends on how and where you fish. If your a troller the best boat isn't going to be the same boat as if you're a caster. If you fish farther south or not late in the season and different boat maybe in order than if you fish the north and fish late in the year. The boat I'm running now if a LOWE Roughneck 1860 VT. It's a modifed-vee all welded aluminum. It's not fancy by any means. It only runs 34mph top end BUT I can fish with it any where and any time I want. I get into some bays with rock bars across the mouth that guy's with high dollar rigs and glass boat avoid like the plague. I fish so late in the year that I'm breaking ice at the ramp and out to the main water for at least 2-3 weeks at the end of the season. You can't do that with a glass boat.
Your best off making a list of what your requirements are taking into account things like the weather and, seasons and bodies of water you fish and then go down it with the different boats you like checking things off. The one with the most checks is the best boat for you.

Good Luck and Good Fishin'
