[QUOTE="AaronJ, post: 119173, member: 1109"] My answer to this question is both yes, and no. It is completely dependent on the bite. A few years ago I had a great bobber bite during the Casino on Devils. Day 1 we made it to our spot and weighed 23#. Day 2 we did not get their in time and had to wait out a couple other boats that were there. Spot on a spot situation and when we were able to move into our exact tree we did end up with another 23# and 2nd place. Another time when the speed and HP matter is in the long runs in bad weather. Casino day 2 this year on Devils a 17 foot boat would have survived; but lost at least 1 hour of fishing time depending on what bite they were on and may have not even made it to their primary spot if it was in Pelican. Do big sparkly boats catch more fish....no. Do they provide a bit more comfort and "fun factor".....yup. Do I have both the big sparkly and 18 foot tiller/60hp....yup. They both have their time and place. [/QUOTE]
