Fished quite a lot out of a handful of them. The platform is fantastic for deck space. They launch and load easily. If the only lakes I fished were the little potholes in N/WI, that would be my boat. But, like Jon, I make an annual trek to Eagle and usually encounter at least one day where wind and waves would make the day difficult in an Esox Magnum. Not a big troller, but there will come day when I decide to hunt meat on the big pond, and likely there is a trip or two to Superior in the future.

Truthfully, if it was just me, I'd deal with 4 footers and getting a little wet, but with Samantha along on most trips I needed something a littler better for bigger water.

In my dream world, the Ranger would stay in the garage and I'd have an Esox Magnum as my "Up North" boat. If I win the lottery...
