Oh ya, we pitch jigs all the time out of my 1760 which has more inside rise than the X-190.

:)

Hey Brad. Thanks for the insight.

What do you mean by inside rise? I know the beams of the X190 is 90" vs 84" in the 1760. I did check out the 1760 and that is a sweet boat as well that I have recommended to several people.

Yeah, I wish I out on the water today too!

Guessing inside rise is gunwale height over the deck based on my comment. I pitched all the time out of my lund that had fairly high gunwales over the deck too but it forces a little different motion that I think is more tiring and more difficult to be accurate, etc, and Id dare say it makes enough difference that it's WHY bass boats have low gunwales. Totally agree it doesnt prevent anything, just a refinement if you spend a lot of time flipping docks or stuff like that. If it's irrelevant most of the time then its a non-issue anyway.
