could not get the full out fishing unit I wanted(because of the wife and kids) but it works,live well pedistal seats, rod holders, down riggers, gps, fish finder, etc., plus the water toys. Had a blast this year, can't wait till next.

Here are some pics of my boat. It is a 2008 Crestliner 1600 Fish Hawk. It has a Merc 50hp 2 stroke, Minn Kota 55 power drive with wireless foot pedal, Lowrance 522c iGps sonar/chartplotter and Minn Kota on board battery charger. Just got it this spring! It was the cheapest thing at the boat show!

Hey guys great boats just wondering why no one has bass boats out here.
I'm from ontario and they are very big out that way.

Thanks Chris

[Topwater]

Bass boats aren't popular here because we don't have any Bass. LOL

[jesse34567]

yeah chris we prefer are walleye boats

Just testing...pay no attention :P

Here's a pic of the newest member of the family ! Unforetunatly I don't have any really good pics - almost all of them were taken from the inside looking out at the various chinook , coho and hali's we took this year.
2008 Northriver seahawk; 21foot plus 2 foot transom extension, 150 plus 8 hp yamaha's with remote steering, 8.5 foot beam. The cover top with comepletly open back make it a dream to fish out of on those very wet- sunny - wet days up in the Charlottes. The wide beam and high sides make it very comfortable on those rough sea days. Four built in fish boxes keep the space open for fishing not coolers. As most of our fishing is done within 15-20 min of the ramp at Masset it might be a bit of overkill : but we sure like it.

The pic of the fish was the first mornings catch out of it this year!

Nice looking rig there Scott and looks like a good day of fishing.
Are you guys going back up to Massett next summer??
I have been going up the last 2 yrs with my old Grady, will be back up again for a few weeks throughout next summer. Haven't caught anything Huge yet, but it's coming
Might see you out there.
Were you guys staying out at Hidden Island campsite?

Hi Rigg Dogg
Yup I'm going back for the month of July and then again for 2 weeks in the fall.
I'm with you on the catch size . We get a couple springs around 30 each year but most are 20 and under. The halibut are only 10-20 for the most part but we get lots . They're even better now that we've got it dialed in how to get them trolling with salmon gear! My next door neighbor had his neice out last year in August and she picked up a 52 her first morning!!! I've been trying to do that for ten years up there !
I've never stayed at Hidden Island but I've had a few beers and fish'n chips there. We have one of the army houses sold off in the 90's. It's a 4 bedroom 2 bath that my father in law picked up and we've since bought of the family. We've been spending part of each summer up there since '97. I go back in the fall for the blacktails and some river fishing .
I'll keep an eye out for your Grady (awesome boats) next year. Whats her name?

[Walleyes]

Wow great lookin boats guys..
Love the tracker heck of a Walleye boat..
As well as the North River heard lots of good stuff on those tubbs,, how does she handle the rough stuff Scott..

[tbosch]

This is the boat i'm saving for (my wife doesn't know this of course). From sturgeon fishing on the fraser to upper steelhead and dollies to red deer river browns and pike. I can't wait.

[Scott h]

I like your taste in boats Tbosch !! You will not be disapointed . Very good idea to go with the upgraded top. Well worth the extra $$
Walleye my northriver handles big water great . I've crossed the straight of georgia to galiano island easily and used it off the north end of the charlottes
in a variety of weather . The engine mount off the transom gives almost 2 feet
extra length and the wide beam (96 in) makes this boat very stable . This is hard to get in a boat that you can tow with a V-6 Tacoma ! The 150 yamaha combined with the 8hp make fuel costs almost a non concern again . We got 6 full days off 1/2 tank of gas this year!

Yeah they are a beautiful boat. I'm hoping my buddy decides to chane to a flats boat now that he's in florida and sell me his. It's identical to the one in the picture. I've been up the fraser and the harrison in it and a few other newer "lighter" models and they can't compare to the stength of those north rivers.

[curteck]

there are some great looking boats on here and here is mine

Well I dont have a boat but my ride is also my fishing machine. 1990 GMC Suburban, 6inch procomp lift, 35x1250R17 Dick Cepek Tires, Flowmaster exhaust, and a beauty of a chevy 350. No boat but it has got me into some lakes where i was told only quads would make it.

[jesse34567]

hey guys i am starting the search for a new boat cause the 12ft won't be enough

so i wanted to ask about the pricing of a crestliner fish hawk 1750 wt or the super hawk 1700 at b&l marine in calgary or alberta for that matter just so there is no surprises

[hogsmoker]

Hey Jesse:

I saw a 1700 crestliner Superhawk at the sportsman show the price was $27,000. This one had a 115 hp merc, trolling motor, fish finder, canopy. Free Spirit Marine.

Nice rig King. I have a similar fishing machine..78 bronco with dual lockers on 35 12.5's. In some situations its better than a quad. Except in the fuel consumption dept...

[vandy]

I am surprised to see this fishing machine machine. You must be enjoying fishing.

[dss44]

It's my job....and what a job lol
