    Northwest type Boats

    Bubba has it right. We use those boats for Salmon and Steelhead river fishing, bay fishing, big lake fishing, and some of the bigger guys go in the ocean. Lots of trolling and hog lines in the big rivers. The jets are used in the rivers quite a lot when encountering shallow water. North...

    Lund SSVs and Smokercraft 15 Alaskan DLX

    I appreciate the concerns on weight distribution, but you all overlooked one small detail. I kept writing "we". The other half of "we" is sitting on the bank taking pictures. You'll notice from the pics that there are seats on the side boxes. That is where I was sitting which made for a more...

    Lund SSVs and Smokercraft 15 Alaskan DLX

    My buddy and I run a 13' Smoker Alaskan. These boats are really popular on the West Coast. They are used a lot in the bays for crabbing and Salmon Fishing. We live on a very large, shallow lake and the wind can get scary big. We run a Honda 20hp and it flat gets after it. Takes on big water...

    First fishing tournament for Skunkmaster Fishing

    It is a 1436 smoker craft with a 9.9 Honda. Andrew is probably going to upgrade to at least a 1448, but it sounds like he may just get the 13' smoker Alaskan Deluxe that he really wants. The place that donated the boat is happy to work with him on trading up too which is very helpful. After...

    First fishing tournament for Skunkmaster Fishing

    Just a post from my blog that I copy/pasted. You all don't know me that well, but I figured you might enjoy a short story about an adventure my fishing bud and I had this weekend. Not the usual warm water species fishing, but big fish are always a blast. Many of you already know, but Andrew...

    Why are 16ft jon boats not that common?

    Here is a pic of mine. Doesn't have many ideas for you. All I wanted was a quiet and flat floor. If I need to get up higher off the water I stand on the factory deck and/or seats. It is a 1644mv. I like the simplicity of the just a plain flat carpeted floor. I thought about adding seats...

    Biggest fish pics

    Sort of. I grew up in Lebanon, but I live and work in Klamath Falls. Those are fish from the lake. Super hard to catch this time of year, but another month and the bite should be in full swing. Geographically, yes northwest (well the edge anyways). Climate, culture, activities.... eastern...

    Biggest fish pics

    First and biggest out of my new-to-me jon. I've caught 3 others this season, but they haven't been as big. Here's the latest.

    1644 smoker

    Got a little better perspective of the floor, but it's a little fuzzy :roll: . The best I can get until the snow stops falling anyways. These are the spacers I made from UHMW to allow the rod holder to twist around and clear the gunwales. I made these bunks for the trailer today too. I cut...

    1644 smoker

    Oh, its just a rubber door mat. I figured I would put it in there for my feet to rest on. That section of carpet will get the most abuse so I thought maybe I could slow it down a little. Probably no big deal, but I threw it in just because. If the dog gets dirty it gives her a place to...

    1644 smoker

    Nothing special here, but thought I would post up some pics of my simple floor. I may build myself a canopy at some time, but for now this is all I have. I love how much quieter the boat fishes with the floor. Both pieces lift out very easily to keep from being ruined during hunting season...
