Kayaks have their advantages, but try fishing Clear Lake, East Bay, Dickinson Bay, Moses Lake, and the Jetties all in the same day and be back home by 3:00 pm. Not gonna happen in a yak. I like being able to go find the fish.
Sounds like you are passing them all up cruising around in style :P
A lot folks are still using 14' flat bottoms with tiller 20hp. and they still catch fish. Funny thing is, the fish don't care what kind of boat you have.
Bull crap! I have a flat bottom with a 25HP and I cant catch crap!

sounds like you spend more time chasing fish than fishing.lol
the fishing was good,it was the catching that was bad.
I have 3 boats, A 24 Haynie Cat (which is 25') a 24 Haynie HO and a East Cape Fury poling skiff.
We do spend more and more on boats, and 8 years ago when i sold my offshore boat I said i would never again have 3 boats, well look at me now.. I have 3 again, but one can be blamed on my wife lol... I bought the East Cape so that i could feel she was safe under any conditions..
I will use all 3 for sure, but not at the same time.
I will offer one tid bit of information though.. If i had to give up two of them.. I would keep the East Cape and give up the Haynies... I Love poling around for monster reds and trout... Period
If the Haynie Magnum is all Chris Coulter is leading me to believe.. The HO will be for sale at the end of the season and I will be sportin a Haynie Magnum next year lol
