thanks for the info guys. sounds like some of you run the same stretches of the susquehanna as i am looking to so you can appreciate what i say when said "shallow and rocky" ! thanks again for the advice.
anyone running jets on smaller all weld jons, say a 1448 for example? also -anyone using a center console on anything under 16ft?
the river here is shallow in many places and i am looking to get a nice balanced rig and run it with a center console, pushed forward. help me get up on plane...
whats the smallest jon I could put a center console into and deck to run an OB Jet? thinking that realistically ill be fishing myself most of the time, just wondering what i'd be able to get away with.
