Crazy thing is that some anglers will buy a $120,000 boat, pull it with a $90,000 truck, and drive home to sleep in a $250,000 house they rent.

My Dad bought a Ranger Commanche 491VS brand new in 1996 for $32000. I thought that was a lot which it was back then. He still has it. It has been a great boat. Rides great in rough water. Looks like that is the first and last new Ranger or any new fiberglass boat I am going to experience. I might be wrong but I don't believe the new over priced Rangers are the same as the Rangers from the days of Forrest Wood.

As a side not, I just got my first boat last year. A used $500 1436 Jon. Repaired it for less than $20, Added a 9.8hp motor that is in like-new condition now for $1,300 in total. Added a little less than $1000 worth of aluminum to floor it, front and rear casting deck it, and hatches. Built my own wiring harness for nav lights, stern light, headlights, interior lights, 2 USB charging and one 12V charging port, and more for maybe $100. Got a spanking new 55lb Minnkota Riptide tiller trolling motor for $450. Got the Garmin 94sv UHD2 (side scan) fish finder that I will hardly use but for navigating the shallow salt flats for $1000. Got a spanking new oversized (in case I decide to upgrade) aluminum trailer for $1,600... but sold my pedal drive kayak for $2,100. Then got Millenium B-100 seats and two LiTime batteries (A 100Ah and a 50Ah) from Amazon on the cheap for a black Friday deal. So far, I am at a little over $4k... and am set up for some serious bass, catfish, crappie, and mainly salt flats fishing. I will be painting soon for not much more. My little ones can come with me at times and the son wants to do some camping trips from it. With just me in there... she will do low to mid 20s... and get the same in fuel economy. With the kids and me... she gets a little over 18 mph. Still planes fine... and is too fast to fish from. 😆 I have to shut the motor down. I still don't get why everyone needs to go so fast... when there are so many boat ramps around. I would rather save the money and invest it.

As long as people sign on the line they won't come down. Twenty years on a boat loan is unreal, the finance company knows they have a high chance at getting it back. I sold bass boats in the late 80's and early 90's and the top price for a Champion or a Skeeter hard loaded was around $18k. I could go 120 months on any new boat over $10k. The only 2 questions a majority of buyers asked was: how fast will it go and how low can I get the payments. We got a lot of repo's over the years.Im sure it hasn't changed much

It really is not the cost of a boat hull (per foot) that has increased so dramatically. Boats used to be 16-17' in length with a 150 hp motor, one 6" graph and a 12 volt trolling motor. We now have 22' hulls with 4-5 12"-22" graphs plus FFS, 360 live, power poles, 120 lb. thrust 36 volt trolling motors, power poles, steps on trailers, 17-20" trailer tires, 400 hp outboards, fancy livewell systems, lithium batteries, and the list goes on and on. Brian Latimer has a great video breaking this down.

When BASS went from a 150 to a 250hp limit it was the beginning of the end. My first boat, a 1978 Ranger had a 115 and every boat I’ve had since has had a 150. Most of the lakes around me have speed limits and the only place within 100 miles that is over 6000ac and has no speed limit is the Hudson River. Wallenpaupack the 5700ac Reservoir 12 miles from me has a 45mph speed limit and still guys buy 20ft/250hp boats to fish it. Overall I think the 18ft/150hp boats that were the standard tournament rig in the 80’s and 90’s are more versatile/better fishing boats that the 100K boats popular today.

And there’s guys spending as much as a house on fishing boats and gadgets. Give me a boat that is dry, spacious, and floats, a powerful trolling motor that can fight the wind or current, a decent fish locator with GPS and side imaging, a couple padded swiveling seats, and I am happy and ready to fish! Fishing and fisherman are getting ridiculous, along with the prices of all these toys and gadgets. Good luck fishing Randy! 🎣

I went to a salt water fishing seminar at a Grady White dealer not long ago. The place was full of off shore boats from $350k to a million. I asked a salesman who buys them. He said wealthy people who pay cash. According to him the only customers who finance are buying boats at or below $100k. So it's not just the bass boats. It's the entire boat industry.

If you look back when bass fishing was exploding, there were a couple dozen bass boat companies out there. BASSMASTER every year used to have a new boats issue that covered dozens of new boats. There was a lot of innovation and prices were reasonable to get people into fishing. Today, how many companies are there? Tracker Marine has bought now owns how many? And closed down how many more? The boats I bought in 92, 98, and 02, the companies were bought by them and closed down. There's a huge lack of competition in the boat industry. Then consider the size of boats. How many 16-17 foot boats running 115's are out there now? Hull size and horsepower go together and drive cost. As do the ridiculous sets of electronics on the boats. How about a new tournament format -- boats no larger than 17 foot and no more than 115 HP. No electronics allowed. No power poles. No more than three rods. No more than 10 lbs of tackle. See who can really fish.

What economy are you talking about??????.......... I had in inflatable boat this past summer and fall just to get out on the water for about $100-$120 after buying a portable usb air pump and it was durable. Just paddles but it got me out there. One Sunday early evening at my local lake about a half hour before I went back to the boat ramp, another boat was getting off at the same boat ramp and I just hung out and fished until they were done. I noticed it was a very nice and sporty looking bass boat with electronics, a nice motor, etc. I looked up the model number of the boat right there on my phone and I about passed out right there on the water. That sucker was priced I believe at $98,000!!!!! Then of course one of the 3 guys backs his probably $20,000-$30000 truck up to it, maybe even more. I thought to myself, "Who in God's name can justify, let alone afford to get a basically $100,000 hunk of metal just to go out and fish!!!!???? Now the more I am into fishing and watch fishing videos, it sounds like $100,000 boats are normal atleast right now. I just find that absurd. I would feel like a baller if I ran across an older jon boat with a trolling motor. I would still need something to pull it.

I’ll be honest, the cost of new boats and all the fancy toys on them is what is turning me off on tournament bass fishing. The cost of electronics is outrageous, but that coupled with the price of boat/motor/trailer makes purchasing one financial suicide for a vast majority of people. It’s hard to compete with people who are willing to mortgage their future and their children’s future on a boat to go compete in a 40 boat open. One of the many reasons I’m slowly tuning out on tournament fishing. I care less and less every year.

At these prices. These manufacturers could absolutely put the best stuff in them and still make money. It's all by design so everybody gets their piece. You buy the boat for the crazy price. They are happy. Then when you get it, you take the units off and buy the ones you want, then that company gets their piece. Then you swap out the batteries, then you add ffs because you have to have that. And on and on. It's nuts. Keep your boats. Repower them if necessary. Stop buying these things and watch the market correct.

Randy thinks the economy has been great the last 4 years, and yet doesn’t understand why Bass boats are $100,000. The dollar’s value is in the toilet and as such, everything costs more. Too many dollars chasing too few products. Economics 101!

Out of curiosity what model and options? I'm on my 3rd boat and my current boat is a 2021 721 pro xp with a 250 merc. Came with the 36v ghost, and 2 12" hds lives. I got the upgraded trailer with the nice rims and added a hds live 16 and active target. Out the door is was 72k. Reason I'm asking is I just bought another house and it takes a little more effort getting g the boat in and out so I might wanna down size.

Well, as a business, its a poor business model to target folks without money. Ive bought my last new boat for sure, but the manufacturers cannot be faulted for targeting the rich folk. Tournament fishing used to be a working mans game, but it is shifting.

I feel like the pros had to separate their self some way from the average weekend fisherman people who don’t even fish real heavy is buying big bass boats if a average citizen can have access to a pro bass boat what makes being a pro so special ? Maybe I’m wrong

It is insane at what bass boats cost today. It is like any other sport the wealthy eventually take it over. Used boat prices will sky rocket now. The pros have just a hundred grand alone in electronics. It’s crazy. These guys are not professional bass fishermen anymore they are computer jockeys.

I don’t believe the cash statement- I have talked to Salesmen at Bass Pro all over and they have nerve seen a boat paid with cash- it’s all payments. Nevertheless, the sooner the state legislatures stop FFS public lakes the better fishing will become.

Real inflation is in the 10% to 15% range, the CPI is BS, it's not just bass boats. It's from houses to eggs. That means 10 to 15% of stock market gains year over year are because of a devalued dollar not a good economy.

Seems like things are going pretty good. We’ve had it over 15 million jobs created over the past four years including nearly a quarter of 1 million last month. That’s quite an improvement from losing 15 million jobs between 2016 and 2020.

I predict that all your major Bass Tournaments will not be in business anymore. It's gotten to High Tech and too costly for the fisherman let alone the Sponsorship. So many people are cheating which discourage the honest people.

If you shop around there are plenty of boat deals. An example would be to go to a boat show in your area. They always have boat show specials. Randy is just clickbaiting all of you channel followers again. He needs to be talking about how and when is the best time to get a better deal on a boat of your choosing!!!! 🐟🐟🐟🐟
