Looking at buying a new boat in the next month or so. Show me your crappie rigs and tell me why you chose that boat.
I’m thinking on buying a bass boat and rigging it with power poles, possibly livescope and plenty of rod holders. What are your thoughts? Thanks

1999 ProCraft 16Bass w/90hp 2strk Merc (extremely low hours, excellent shape)
Chosen after having sold my old 15' boat w/70hp Yamaha and doing without a boat for several years.
Picture shows it rigged for Pushing jigs (pre-Livescope purchase)

Good looking boat for sure. I like the stability of a bass boat myself. I’m have a 17 foot v hull now with a tiller style 50 it gets the job done but definitely time for an upgradeQuote:

my thoughts are my what deep pockets you have red riding hood :Rofl , but if it was my dollar a big fiberglass bassboat of some sort , low profile so the wind dont push it and heavy , LS requires you to hold rather still to get the everything to come together just right , been in several LS rigs and being steady is for sure the ticket when sneaking up on them and watching the jig and the fish .
brand names would include the proven to ride well and live a long life versions and probably go ahead and spend the whatever it costs to armor the hull well due to where you might find yourself chasing crappie .
