chefchris Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Sold the 1st crawdad I had in 2015. Picked up another one this spring. 2nd crawdad I’ve owned, nothing too crazy, rigged for bow or transom mount TM (picked it up that way) love these things, super skinny water, easy to move solo, can stand and fish all day in it, fishes two guys great. Picked up a 3rd one a few weeks ago for $200, thing was filthy and had dead mice under the foam, took it to the car wash, removed all the framing/foam/decks, rinsed, scrubbed it down with “awesome clean”, rinsed and repeated 2x and power washed the whole thing with clean water, thing looks mint now. Plan is to rig this one up for a solo boat, more open space, move the seat location, etc, etc. winter/spring project so it’s ready for March 2020. tybo jones, thebeardedbassman, bassbass and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fished one a couple of years back on the Collins and it's a sweet setup. Easy to row (if you know how and I did not)! If I lived over in middle or east TN it would be my choice.

My father in law has one. Love fishing out of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tybo jones Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Just got this crawdad knockoff going. Bought it like 10 years ago had holes in it. so dirty I could barely find the hull numbers. The front floatation had mice, chipmunk and ant infestation. The trifecta of gross. She cleaned up well. Nice and open floor plan, light, easy to maneuver. It’s just what I need. If I fish with someone else I just throw a cooler in the middle for a seat and storage .

azfisher Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 Sweet ride! I would get a recessed foot tub soon, made a word of difference on my back and hips. Can you get your big rods in the rod locker? I drilled the far end of mine and can get 8 footers in it now. Champions are great fishin' boats!!

Champions are great fishin' boats!! Thanks man. It has the recessed pedal tray but its been filled. The ulterra footpedal wont work in them. Plus it has i pilot so I use the remote alot more than the foot pedal anyhow. The rod storage is one drawback. With the passenger console I will be laying the big rods either on the outside or inside of the console while traveling. I plan on gluing down a rubber pad on the flat side of the console to avoid guide damage. I dont think anything bigger than a 7' 6" will fit in the lockers but they never fit in the tracker either. azfisher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The older Champions are built like tanks. Great boat. StriperAddict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
