This one fits under the tonneau cover of my long bed. I could go fishing at the drop of a hat and you'd never know I was armed! PLUS, it has built in wheels on the back end! I can put it in places I used to just slobber over. Room for a big ice chest, lots of poles and I've got an umbrella mount! Swivel round in it. Stand up in it. Look DOWN at the gators swimmin' by wishin' they could flip me over!!!!!! "I like it, I love it". Here's a link where I bought it. http://www.directboats.com./bassbaby.html

Here's another I think would be great. Frank Jones, a bigbluegill.com member owns the company. It has built in twin trolling motors recessed into the hull with steel guards to protect them. Looks like you could skim over anything, logs, weeds, lily pads. Wish it had those built in wheels. Still, I like the recessed motors concept. I wouldn't feel like gator bait in it either. Very stable, like mine.

I use an ATV to carry my 12 foot v hull. it has a homemade rack so boat rides above the operator. I get into a couple nice ponds that are not real excesable. otherwise 16' v hull. If my scaner worked I have some good pics.
We have a variety (jon boats in 10, 14, and 16 foot lengths), a big pontoon boat (that needs work), a 15 foot Protatch pontoon boat, and two 10' Wilderness System Tarpon kayaks outfitted for fishing. The small pontoon boat and kayaks get the most use. The kayaks are really the most fun.
