Just bought a g3 eagle 170 PFX

Featured Replies

Just purchased a 2017 G3 eagle 170 PFX stick steer with a 70hp Yamaha four stroke.  Been going back and forth on buying a bass boat or a stick steer boat and since I like going frogging from time to time and believing that I can bass fish out of a stick steer boat I think I will be pleased with the purchase.  The dealer said the boat should arrive in 2 weeks or less.  I'm stoked to be a boat owner again!!!!

No pics? :( I know you dont have it but a link or pic to one like it would be a start. I like pics. :)

I have owned 11 boats in 40+ years including two glitter rocketships. My biggest was a ProCraft 20 footer that had a 200 Mec.  However, one of my favorite boats my wife and I fished out of was a 15 foot Polar Kraft stick steer boat. I had a 25 Merc on it in order to fish a hp restricted lake.  We caught a ton of panfish, walleye, white perch, large and smallmouth bass, and more than enough catfish from it.  Sometimes the simplicity of a flat metal,(no carpet) floor, and sitting inside the boat instead of on top of the boat is nice. The fact is you never move to operate the boat. You run the gas engine then stop, drop the trolling motor and fish.  We even trolled for the walleye and white perch.  Oh fresh water white perch was goooood eating!  I rigged the boat with good electronics, removable fishing rod holders, a front Anchor Mate, a holder and 3 buoys etc.  Nothing I needed was out of my easy reach.  Here are some pics.
