The way the prowler seat moves looks really good

I want something like this as well, i fish around tyndall afb and dupont bridge, would be nice to get something with leg room that is also stable to stand up in. I have a hard time wanting to spend 3k+ on a kayak, when this will probably be just as fun.

Yessir I say the jon boat better for our flats and the prowler is better for our bridges

I might get the jon boat then. I wont be spending much time in deep water except when im headed to a very close island like shell island. How does it handle small waves? @@GreysonRoberts

Greyson, how crazy things work, I saw your comment on Brant's new channel and when you said " I fish Panama City everyday " I live in Bayou George , I fish the same places you do. I had to check your channel out and I love it , great editing and awesome content. Looking forward to upcoming video's. Maybe I'll see you one day, keep the lines tight.

The plastic pontoon boat can I row it with just paddles or oars? Basically do I have to get a trolling motor if I were to purchase the 8 foot pontoon

I have a sundolphin 10 ft, basically same as a 10 ft pond prowler. It came pre-wired but it sucks, you lose alot of amperage and gets very hot because its too thin. Get thicker wiring and run it through conduit and secure to the bottom. Build a rudder for the stern, I have a 40lb Minn Kota on the bow. without the rudder, it tends to drift and pivot instead of turning when under power. I built a floor using 3/4 plywood and covered with carpet, so its soo comfortable standing barefooted. The floor has 4 pieces and the 2 middle ones open up to 2 cut up coolers. Ive been improving it the last 3 yrs and I absolutely love it.

I just ordered the 10ft sundolphin for me and my son to go fishing🎣 is it def worth it? Or you think I should have got the bass pro brand??

@@hiddencityboxing4564 Its basically the same. Its about 130lbs so a small pick-up truck and you can launch almost anywhere. A 30lb thrust works fine and if its calm, you can get get going with just paddles. Its well worth it for a starter boat.

It would be great if they would add another foot or so to the width and at least 2 feet to the length of the Pond Prowler. That would make this boat way more stable and comfortable for two people.

If they were any wider it probably wouldn't fit in the back of a pickup.

@@floridamaninthewild I haul mine on a trailer. Paid $250 bucks for it. I can.load everything we need in the boat and haul it with a cover over it. I wouldn't want the hassle of loading it in and out of the back of my truck.

@Ranger11413 can you measure the bottom width? I have a HF trailer and I have about 50inches of width.

I don’t know the exact size but I do have a video all about me installing it and testing it while fishing. The link to the top is also in the description of that video

A friend of mine gave me a no longer wanted 84 Coleman crawdad at the exact same time. I was looking into buying a plastic boat. They have the dolphin camouflage one for 559 at tractor supply the Coleman is pretty nice. I assume this one would go just as fast and looks like it would be a bit bigger and maybe hold a little more weightwith all those aluminum poles in the craftsman, it is a little annoying especially the soft floor

I want them both. For hunting fishing and trapping and running around.

@GreysonRoberts 5 ай бұрын

You can fully mod out both and still be way under an actual boats price point

It is good to see that prawlers work in the inshore. I thought the wave and current would have been bit much for it but glad to be wrong

I was very anxious my first time. However 7 months later I’m in rollers, 15-20mph wind and taking on less water than small skiffs. These things bob over any wake or waves
