    Default Bay boats/ center consoles


    Any of you guys that run bay boats center consoles, I am looking for some shopping help. Im looking for something I can use in bigger choppier saltwater areas, but still take to Henderson and other freshwater lakes. Something on the lower/middle end of the price spectrum. Any name brands come to mind?

    I have a 19' NauticStar. Really thought I would hate going from years and years of bass rigs to this, but I really don't mind fishing out of it at all.

    I like center consoles but if you ever fish under and close to low hanging trees they are a handicap then . I had to learn the hard way ,always hung in trees. For open water they are great.
    The fish were bitting yesterday, The fish will bite tomorrow,,, today I must buy my fish

    If your talkin saltwater and sloppy get one made for it not altered to handle it occasionally. Maverick, Hewes, Scout, Key West, Cobia, Egret, East Cape to name a few.

    I have the Xpress 20' H20B and fish Henderson all the time. She drafts in about 12" of water. The only problem is, as mentioned, low tree limbs and trees less than 95" apart. I haven't tried Cow island lake yet, waiting for the water to rise. I switched from a bass boat so I can fish 360 degrees around the boat and still have room for an ice chest. (65 gal)
