Can’t wait to see your boat👍🏻
I fish an aluminum boat. G3 1710 Sportsman. 90hp, 43mph loaded. Tow it with a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Love the boat.
Good for you Randy, all I have to say my experience I have caught bigger fish in aluminum. I’m fishing in bass pros anniversary boat. I change the trolling motor to 24 volt. I use the out board off and on the trailer. Very little use moving around. Last year was 12 gallons of fuel. I don’t fish tournaments anymore but I fish Clearlake and the ca delta. It works for me. Good luck!
I've had both and once you get out of a fiberglass and go aluminum you'll be wishing you were back in your fiberglass bass boat.. hands down fiberglass wins all the way around
nitro Z18 pro w/ mercury pro sx 150. All the features of the $100k boats at half the price, 40 g livewell,, 40g fuel tank, all the storage you'd 3ver need – I have 20 rods in the boat with room for more. Aluminum just doesn't compare
I figured he'd only have flashers on his boat. Real fishermen don't need fancy electronics to find fish!
Bottom line, nobody will give Randy a fiberglass rig.
Randy, I agree with your advantages.
But here's some what I consider important disadvantages.
Most don't have dry storage. If it rains, everything will get wet.
A lot less lockable storage.
You can't mount a through hull transducer. It can be really hard to get a good depth reading at speed with an externally mounted transducer. I don't care what you do.
Tried aluminum in 2021 for all of the reasons you mentioned. 19"10" 150 ProXS. Loved the boat, great fuel economy, much cheaper, awesome in shallow water or deep with spot lock, the boat fished better than any of my glass boats, until it busted on Sam Rayburn. Back to glass but I did love my aluminum.
Sir Randall wishing you the best with your new ride, Great News
Thanks for the video, Randy. What model, length, motor hp are you looking for?
Teacher??????? What is he teaching people to be male whining Karen's? What a Sham
Can you use aluminum boats in the big tournaments?
Ranger makes some good aluminum rigs. The one problem I have found is the “One Piece Livewell lid”. When the livewell is opened, both the pro’s and co-anglers livewells are exposed. A feisty spotted bass can leap from one side to another. A bass can completely leap out of the boat. A pro is busy up front fishing, and a co angler can accidentally swap bass, or cause a pro to loose his fish. A simple couple hundred dollar modification with “Two Separate lids” at the Ranger factory can fix this issue.
Loving the hat!!! 🤠 Cool shades!!!😎 and loving the Mobile office!!! 🤓
Welcome to regular guy life. No boat sponsor have to pay for your rig. Ive deployed 4 times to get what i wanted and paid cash for my truck and boat. Its a tough life bein a regular joe blow fisherman but you will make it.
I can count how many aluminum rigs you have ran maybe one. I have seen glass boats with holes through a charger boat and Gambler and they finished the tournament that day, not happening in aluminum. Aluminum being lighter is a misconception they have to thicker Guage to make it as strong foot for foot. My Z19 weighed as much as a 20' express.
Welcome to the world of the tin can bass boat. for what you want, for gettin' into the spots the other guys can't- that's the boat to run.
Just used your Tackle Warehouse link. Hope it helps. Keep up the good fight!
I thought you were going to announce what boat you decided on today. Now you're streeeetching it out.
Great video !
