Types of Fishing Pontoon Boats
When fishing on a lake or river, pontoon boats offer an ideal platform, but not all are suited for every scenario. Before purchasing, it's crucial to consider the various types of fishing pontoon boats. Key factors include how you'll transport the boat, launch methods, and the type of water you'll be fishing in.
Here’s a breakdown of the main types available:
One-Person Pontoon Boats
These boats come in a variety of styles, with weight capacities ranging from 250 to 400 pounds depending on your gear. Opt for a higher capacity if you plan to carry more equipment. An optional motor mount is beneficial, especially if you need to traverse long distances. An aluminum frame can be advantageous, as it is 6 to 10 pounds lighter than steel. Some models offer a standing platform for those who prefer casting while standing. They can be set up in under 15 minutes and require less than five inches of water to float.
Two-Person Pontoon Boats
Larger and heavier, these boats require assembly assistance. They offer dual casting platforms, aluminum frames, motor mounts at both ends, and several storage compartments. However, due to their size and weight, they can be challenging to transport over long distances.
Packable Pontoon Boats
Ideal for those needing to walk long distances, these boats are lightweight, even more so than single-person models. While they are easy to carry, they lack some customization options available in other types.
Kick Boats
An upgrade from float tubes, kick boats are lightweight and packable, fitting easily in a vehicle trunk. They are perfect for staying warm during fall, although prolonged use can be tiring.
Conclusion
Your choice should reflect your preferences and fishing conditions. Take time to explore all options to find the right pontoon boat for your needs.
