MOST ANGLERS HAVE STRONG BELIEFS ABOUT WHAT HULL TYPE IS BEST. Running hard in rough water requires a seaworthy platform with the strength and stability to keep you safe, comfortable and dry. Among the different trends that have consequently become evident from the evolution of center consoles, boat builders are cornering a new niche of complex and competitive catamarans harnessing more outboard power than ever before.

Add A Fly Rod To Your Fall Arsenal
When you start transitioning your gear to fall baits, heavier rods, sucker rigs and trolling gear, one thing you don’t want to leave behind is a fly rod.
