Lighter towing, cheaper, dont have to be anal about scratching it, nobody suspects you to win the tourney I like the big Express' and the G3's. The G3 hp200 will take a 200hp and will fly! LOTS of storage space, too. Just my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant seen to decide whetther to get a tin boat or just get a bass boat i can use for tourneys. Any insights? What trail? You have to atleast 25hp motor and can not have a tiller handle (the handle on the motor you twist the throttle) is the only rules I know of and I fished FLW and TBF. I was a co this past year and fished out of multiple aluminum boats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2833-34497 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I have 2 kayaks for fishing a 12' Hobie Pro Angler and a 12' Wilderness Commander both which I enjoy. Commander is easier for hauling to small ponds/lakes Hobie for getting to spots on bigger lakes. I threw in a 3rd picture because there not for just for fishing with grandkids My wife uses a 10' Wilderness Tarpon and a 12' Hobie Pro Angler also but not for fishing but to come along with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on my short list before I got my Big Game II. How do you like it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it Again each has it advantages depending on what your needs are and Wilderness came out after I got my Commander with the Ride which I hear is neat also, but I do love both and so do my kids and grandkids:!: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
