Just wondering how many people use 'glass bass boats chasing muskie. I know all you normally hear about is deep v multi-species boats. I'm continuing to bounce ideas around in my head for a new boat. Seems like it would work well being close to the water for figure 8s and such.


If "chasing" doesn't include trolling I think a bass boat would be just fine. But you are obviously limiting yourself.

As far as getting close to the water, the 600 series Ranger is the obvious standard, it has a huge front deck and is plenty close to the water for casting moe if you are using 8.5-9' rods.

I agree that a 36 V trolling motor is not a sufficient backup unless you're only fishing smaller inland lakes.
