Ok so right now im really just inquiring on what kind of jon boat i need as well as who makes a good one for a decent price. Most of the waters im fishing are small lakes. It would most of the time be just me in the boat but i would like to be able to have the option of taking someone along with me. I would also like to be able to customize it to have some rod holders and maybe a platform to fish off of as well. Thanks for the help in advance.

thank you and i cant wait for it..

Pm'd thank you and looking forward to talking to you.

Hey everyone I live in the manhattan area and have recently got back from deployment. I was wondering if anyone fishef up in this area at all. I was also wanting to know if anyone ever needed a boating partner seeing how i dont have one. Other then tjat any advice for the lakes here in manhattan would be appreciated.

To be completely honest with you i have no idea. Like i said my buddy just said that his father in law got it decked out pretty good.

Thats what i meant was a explorer 17..Anyone got some help? By the way this would be my first boat, so if anyone could tell me anything about triton boats and how well of a boat they are etc. that would be helpful. Thanks

Im currently in Afghanistan right now and one of my buddies told me his father in law is selling his boat. Its a 2011 Triton 17 Pro series 90hp. His father in law is ex military so im not worried about it being a lemon or anything like that. His wife has gotten diabetes since he bought it and forced him to sell it since it is just sitting at the marina. There is a total of 13 hours on it. He is asking 16000 just so he can pay off what is left on the loan. Just wondering what you guys think as far as the price and everything else goes. Thanks and hope everyones doing good.

THanks a lot man i appreciate your time.. I will look into all of these rods and reels thanks a lot man

Thats kind of why im asking..I dont really know what is best. I guess aluminum because they seem to be cheaper. Size i have no idea..horsepower? just w/e i need to get to where im going....

Hellow everyone I am stationed at Fort Riley and am set to deploy shortly. Really stinks because i just got back into bass fishing. I have a question regarding Bass Clubs in or around Mannhattan KS. Upon my return from deployment i am very interested in joining a bass club around the area. My questions are, do i need a boat? How much does it cost to join? Can i compete in tournaments with someone from the club? What are some of the benefits in the club? How long do I have to be a member(I leave Fort Riley at the end of 2013 is why i ask)?I havent fished on a boat since being here at Fort Riley so that will be nice.

Really?? what about like the 2011 bass trackers?? i was looking at those..what do you guys think about those?? im not saying new as in like 2012 but liked a a 2011 or 2010 new..thanks again guys

Thanks for the replies guys. Im looking to get something that can handle most lakes so i dont get blown over from the wind. Something that is pretty easy to maintain as well as transport and use. Im very new to the boating aspect. Ive only fished from a boat 2 times. I think i would prefer new just because of the warranty and i dont have to worry about getting a "lemon". Not wanting to drop 10's of thousands of dollars either. I appreciate all the help once again guys..Thanks

Can anyone help me?

NO one?

Hey guys im looking for some help for the following set ups..price range for each rod is between 75-150 dollars...Im about to deploy and am gonna purchase these while im gone and use them when i get back. For the casting rods i plan on getting bass pro shops pro qualifier casting reels. Not really sure what the gear ratios mean and which ratios are best for which type of fishing. Thanks for your help guys I appreciate it. 7 Foot MHF Casting Rod 7 Foot MM Casting Rod 7 Foot MXF Spinning rod

First of all thanks for reading my thread as well as your help. I am currently in the ARMY and stationed at Fort Riley KS and to deploy shortly. When i get back i will be getting out shortly and moving back to TN. Just wondering what yalls thoughts were on a decent entry level bass boat that isnt gonna bust my wallet.
