Anyone have a experience with this line of boats. In particular I am looking at "moving up" from a 14ft lund s14 (narrow-shallow). I'm looking for better stability and a little more freeboard in the rear. my motor (4 stroke) and I leave only a few inches of draft in the rear. I'd appreciate any info.

A friend of mine has one. I've hunted next to him, but I have not been inside the boat myself. He likes the boat, and has a Beavertail Blind with it.

If you want to hunt more than 2 people you really need to max out the hp, which is 25hp. It is a heavy, good sized boat. Seemed very stable that will handle some rougher water with ease. He tried out a couple 15hp motors ( 2-stroke and 4-stroke) and it struggled.

      Water Temps 48-52. I tried for crappies and caught two walleye. I can't even crappie fish. 1/32 ounce jig and a tiny minnow

      Looks like you could use a FM hat. 😉    The future son in law prefers the lump coal.  He’ll start it in coal starter over a propane burner, then dump in it his smoker grill as needed.   Congrats on the clean break “over there”.

      Should really start a What yeah Smoking thread!    Another fun place we tried when up in Duluth. OMC stands for "Oink, Moo, Cluck" They serve pork cracklins for starter to test their sauces on.

      On the east side of St. Boni. It's not too far from me. A friend lives in St Boni and loves the place. I haven't tried it yet.

      First time ever going there with the wife. Little spendy but they make some darn good piles of meat! We had the brisket! 😋

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!
