[QUOTE="SinningSaint33, post: 5676516, member: 23065"] I recommended going with the biggest boat you can pull and/or afford. Nothing trumps floor/deck space. I started with a little 1542 then bought a 1653. Then a 1860. Finally pulled the trigger on a 21ft Glass ranger. I have HUNDREDS of pounds of baits and about 40 rods in the front hatches. Even when I gotta junk fish in a tournament and have 16 rods on deck there is still more than enough space for two people to fish off the front. IMO there isn’t an aluminum boat out there that compares to the ride of a glass boat. Fiberglass just absorbs shock so much better. I’ve been in some very questionable waters and have never feared for my life. We all know the Tennessee river can get nasty in a moments notice. [/QUOTE]
