I put a 50lb thrust trolling motor on mine and it moves!! Fits in the back of the truck so it's easy access where there aren't ramps.

I live these boats for that reason. Easy to get around and get you on the fish easily

I grew up in SE Ohio next to the Ohio river and have owned a plywood flat boot boat, aluminum john boats, a speed boat and even a sail boat but the BEST fishing boat I have ever owned was a plastic two man bass boat that looked a lot like the Pond Prowler sold at Bass Pro shops. I would not even consider any aluminum john boat if I could get a Pond Prowler.

Yea, I have been looking for Jon boats for a while. No luck round here. Me and my sons finally got a little money saved and free time, but no reasonable boats out there. Well like you said new. I see a bunch of used ones on craigslist for 3 or 4 times what a new one would cost. Just crazy times.

@TBassFactory 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah it is a weird time right now. I didnt want one of these before but the options for having a boat are starting to get pretty thin and especially if you want to save some money. I hope you get something that works out good for ya terry.

Dude get a jon boat. There is nothing wrong with getting a used one. I bought an awesome uses one last year for $1,500 -- 15hp motor, 30lb thrust trolling motor, newly installed metal floor, 2 anchors and a gas tank. Basically all I bought were new batteries, a net, oars and a fish finder. Basically got a really nice jon boat for not too much money. And I'm thinking about building a deck & home-made live well on it this year.

That’s a tough decision. That little boat had way more stability and fish ability than a kayak in my opinion. The only downside is it weighs just a little more.

I think its an awesome super stable kayak. It isn't quite the same as the prowler 10 with being able to take people and alot cheaper. You could buy 2 batteries, 2 trolling motor with it and still be cheaper than the frontier but it depends on how your gonna us it.
