I dont know which one it was. It was a long time ago and he was into speed. I wasnt around back then but I guess the cop couldnt even believe how fast he was goin in a bass boat.

There ain't nothin' like the smell of outboard exhaust. It's like Hoppes. Happiness is deep-sixing a 2-stroke and bolting on a 4-stroke. For fragrance,you need to use Klotz mix in a HOT 394 with a 54" buried balls deep in a 1000yr old tree,for unparalleled ambiance. Just sayin'.............

Well, here's a new pic of my '95 Cajun Travis Edition, 175 hp Johnson Faststrike. Not too good. Not enough light.

I know guys who run FAST bassboats. I am talking Strokers, Allisons, stuff like that. IMO, anything up above 60 is respectable. If you get a bassboat above 90 mph, for real, you've accomplished quite a bit. That Cajun is the fastest I've had. It gets up above 50, which doesn't sound like much, but that is with a full load of tackle, wife and kids, etc. Plus, it's a fishnski. Plenty fast for me. I expect Storm makes the fastest fishnski. Allison the fastest straight bassboat. My info may be dated though.

Most have the center console and are set up more for running than fishing. I love them though. I think Bullet probably owns the title of fastest "traditional" bass boat. I know they own a lot of drag racing records.

Finally took a picture of mine last week .1754 Grizzly by Tracker and a 25 hp Merc run from the hind end.Not pretty but it gets used more than most and has hauled in about as many crappie as anybody's boat ,I reckon . I like to be able to walk around and if I drown , I want to fall OUT of a boat , not OFF of a boat .
Never holler whoa or look back in a tight place

Here's my boat, 15' clacka. The picture was taken on the Smith River in 2010. That is one trip I would reccomend to anybody. We camped three nights and if I did it again I would try to stretch the trip out one more day.

I had my fun in the tin boat for 3-4 years now. Next one will probably be glass. Guess I was right....Here it is.

Sleeps two and it's bear-free and bug-free if you're far enough from shore. The whole rig breaks down and fits in the bottoms of the two canoes. Of all the boats pictured - this one is my favourite!
