Location: Minneapolis, MN | I had a 19ft TR19 Triton for 3 seasons that I miss a lot. It was an awesome boat to fish from and very fast....on small water. There were several times on Vermilion where I just couldn't get out at all, not even skirting the leeward side. I'm in a 620 now mostly because we have a little boy that my wife likes to bring with periodically and I've grown to like trolling.
Something you may not have considered, the bass boat is very light on the bow and bounces quite a bit in big water when you are trying to hold a spot and cast. It can be like doing more than the mombo up there at times. There were days I would come home with calf cramps. The 620 is much heavier up front and doesn't bounce as much when trying to cast big water.
You mentioned, storage. I can't stand the idea of my baits in those big Lakewoods. They are pain to find a place for and just scream steal me. I have 1/2 a flambeau maximizer guts in one of my front boxes for my bucktails. I keep all my other baits in the clear plano boxes and tupperware containers also in my front boxes and some in the rear boxes just like I did in the Trition and don't find a need for Lakewoods in spite of of having more than 300 baits in the boat. |
