The 1880 Angler is a nice boat; I own one along with a 620 Fisherman. However, in my opinion, the Angler series is not in the same class as the Fisherman series as a fishing boat. The Angler is not designed as a pure fishing boat, but as a crossover between a fishing boat and a family pleasure boat. It fishes well, but I do not feel it functions as well as the Fisherman in most fishing situations. The interior will make for a great trolling boat, but the hull does not track well. The interior lacks storage. The small front deck makes casting for two very tight. There is no rear casting deck available, and the small rear space is a very long step up. The Angler is a fine boat, but if I had to do over again, I would buy a Fisherman series even if it required going to a smaller hull. Both hull styles will be safe in big water. Just my opinions as an owner of both hulls.
