    Seeing as you're from California I would imagine 2 strokes will soon be against the law to operate. LOL Fuel economy and performance wins on the 2stroke 6 cylinders and I believe it's the opposite on the smaller motors.

    Check the restrictions in place for the lakes you plan to fish. I don't think national parks allow two strokes,and as mentioned, that state has its own rules. Performance wise, you can't beat a two stroke. The newer DFI two strokes are very fuel conservative, but you still have those screwed up laws that prohibit the use of two stroke motors in a lot of places.
