| I'm considering getting a new/used fishing boat for 2014. I have an opportunity to get a used 2005 Lund 1800 explorer with a 150 Merc for about $18K. it is in good shape and well appointed with trolling motors and electronics. My family has just relocated to central MN and we live on or next to a number of smaller 1500-3000 acre waters. my son and I are big muskie fisherman and while we like these smaller lakes occassionally we fish Leech, Mill Lacs, and Vermillion. Since it will usually just be my son and I using the boat is it too big for our needs. Would I be better off getting a 16 or 17 footer? Is bigger always better? How many of you folks who fish alone or with one other boatmate prefer a smaller more manueverable boat? We also fish bass,pike,walleyes,and panfish. Any thoughts?  | |
