In my Bass Boat which is a 14.6 footer (you get 16 foot or more and you come under a whole lot of new regulations) is real stable. And the big comfortable chairs you sit in make fishing all day almost a pleasure ... if the fish are biting.
Love walleye. It just doesn't get any better, short of a good mess of gills or some of the 15" perch from the lake here. I guess its kinda a toss up.
I'm a night walleye person and troll nearly 100% of the time. Love fishing suspended fish that are 30' to 40' down in deep water. I avoid any daytime fishing short of maybe Huron. My best year fishing the inland lake here is 486 walleye boated. My Tyee is 19', so I have a few more regulations than if under 16'. Depending on anyone with me (3 rod limit per person), I'll run up to 8 rods, all using planer boards. The snap weight method to get to suspended fish.
At least there's something to do when you can't hunt
