Hello everyone. I'm new to this site. My family and I mostly fish the bays, I went offshore once on an 18' fishmaster with a 115 hp suzuki, didn't like it. I only went three miles out of Port Aransas. I currently own a 20' sea chaser flats with a 140hp suzuki. My question is, is this boat big enough to fish close to the jetties?
I run a 17ft. Mako with a 115 20+ miles a few times every year and you can see the results in previous threads. A heads up on the weather,gps,and radio is all you need!!
we were 18 miles out of port a last weekend in a 20 foot carolina skiff w/ a 90 horse. caught a 4 man limit of kings. no problem at all if you pick your days.
sometimes the seas could be smooth as glass and youll see an assortment of smaller bay boats out there fishin wit the offshore regulars. just gotta pick your battles.
