Only 6 sea bass!!!?
Black Plague:
yeah its my dad's boat and that's exactly right it is a really great boat for duck hunting and is very wide and I think that width is what makes it soooo stable, its not exactly flat bottomed like some are but you are right in that it isn't a deep V by any means...
Dustin07:
just seems like it would make a good bucket up front to scoop up the waves, know what i mean? be safe...
the shootist:
I've been fishing Neah Bay now for over 20 years with alot of different boats that one would only think of using for fresh water, but usually in Aug. the ocean is calm ,and we've never had a problem. I will say however that you have to pay attention to what is going on with the water, wind, and fog. The lowe roughneck floats like a feather on the water, but the wind can also move it around quite easily so I'll be getting a minn-kota with auto pilot to keep her going straight so I can fish withy less difficulity. I know that one of my semi hunting partners put 20 people in his and took them across a lake with no problem, and this last year we had 2 dead elk, and 3 guys in my 18.6 and it didn't affect the boat at all!!! :)

i've fished all the way to tattoosh a couple times out of my 13' smoker craft alaskan. i wouldn't go out that far in anything but calm weather though. plenty of places you can fish out of a small boat though. waadaah island can be really good for sea *censored*s and lings.
you don't need a 25' ocean going boat with twin 200s like some guys on the net would try and have you think. just some common sense.
CastleRocker:
Common sense goes a long way. I take my party barge up there, and it's awesome. I get a lot of funny looks when I first head out though! Usually by the second day, we have at least one of those guys with the big offshore rigs asking where we are catching all the fish. I just tell them that they are welcome to follow me...just don't get impatient, as I only run about 20 knots, and I don't get up and leave before daylight. I need to get back up there this season.
