New 2009 to boating/fishing enthusiast bought a place on the St Johns River Fl. Now I need a Pontoon Boat to entertain friends and relatives when they visit.
We are near to Lake George and I have been told to get at least a 22', to be safer should a quick storm occur, cause the lake can get nasty in a hurry.
Currently have a Nitro NX750 and plan to keep it for fishing. However if fishing from a pontoon is as handy as a bass boat, I might just have one boat, and it will have to be a pontoon cause of the capacity.
Questions; Is it practical to fish from a toon. If not I can get a party toon and forget the live well etc.
Is it worthwhile to get a tritoon?
Best and no good brands
What to look out for in a used Toon
Any pontoon websites where I can gain more knowledge?
Any other advice I can use?
I know you are all are Nitro owners and not toon owners, but after reading your posts I'm confident you all know more about boating and fishing than I will ever know.
I can listen to 10 boat salesmen, and not learn as much, as one post here!
Planned to go snowmobiling with grandkids all next week (no snow but will go anyway) be back next weekend.
Thank You in advance! Gene Currently in landlocked Pennsylvania till mid to late January.
