Location: Wisconsin | I fish GB a lot. Like others have said, watch the forecast and keep an eye on the horizon. I've been caught in some pretty nasty weather that just seems to pop up. I fish out of a Ranger 175T. The boat handles bigger water than it was probably
designed too. However, lots of times I wish I had bigger boat. Also keeps me from going on a few days where a larger rig
might let me get out. There are lots of days where it doesn't matter how much boat you have. Any hard winds out of the north is a bad thing. With that said, if a 17' to 18' foot boat isn't enough, I think you need to go 20'+ to see a lot of difference. There's a reason you see so many Ranger 620/621's and other boats in that class out there. Tom
