Help on picking a new bream boat
Submitted by bouttime on Fri, 2007-07-13 09:04
Hey all. I am looking at getting a bream boat for the river. Looking at either a stacer 4.2 or quintrex 4.2. Just after something i can cruise around the river when the weather is foul out wide. Have a budget of around 10K. Anyone have a boat of this size set up as if i bye new will need some ideas as to how to set up. Want casting platforms and live well. Not to fussy weather its tiller or side console. Will have an electric on the front. There is a couple on the second hand market which i am looking at over the next couple of days so will see how i go.
Also anyone know anything about or if there is ABT in WA. Heard of a few comps on 2004 but not much since.
Thanks

BREAM BOAT?!?! hehehe Hey
BREAM BOAT?!?! hehehe
Hey mate lemme know if you want any bream lures. Thinking of selling my entire collection of HBs, minus maybe a few for memories... there really is no point in me keeping them, its been 2 years since any of it has been wet.
I'll put up a proper post of sales when I have the time.
They might as well go, make way for more poppers. I am so broke in singapore now, its embarassing really. Not because its cheap, quite the opposite really. =( Price tags on Sea Frogs and Hammerheads don't come cheap, and the Skagit Pump King used by Reiko makes me cry. (Honsu you understand).
Y'all should really sit back, point and laugh if I go GT-less again the next time I try, goddamn lousy trevally.
