[QUOTE="djchris, post: 244190, member: 1458"] don't see a problem catching a big cat in a 14 footer. however i do agree with bigger water a bigger boat would be better BUT other than the 2 feet difference in size the 1448 grizzly and 1648 grizzly are the same boat.....both are same depth same width. don't know how that would make a difference on big water? i don't know how big the lake your were referring to is but i have been on a dinky 14 foot boat on shelbyville here in illinois which is a rather large lake and was fine. every boat is going to have it's limitations no matter what size. me personally prefer the small boat over a larger one....can be had for lil money can be towed easier can launch one from pretty much anywhere and can be dragged across a sand bar or whatever if your in a smaller river. easy to power and easier to put in a smaller garage or shelter. easier to maneuver around obstacles...don't need a larger trolling motor 12v 45lb is plenty.....just an easy boat all around.
