Lund 1875 Pro V Bass ~ Built to Perform

Today’s trip onto Lake Menderchuck included some rather sporty condition on the ride back to the ramp. Thought I’d share it.
These are the days where I am quickly reminded of just how important
having a super capable rig, as well as a powerful and dependable out board, really are to me.
Stay Safe & Fish Hard

Jeff, you’re a brave soul, I thought for sure your phone was going in the drink! 😂

Wow! What a ride.

[@ironmank955]

Looks like a lot of fun

Thing’s a freshwater beast!

Got to love a following sea! Good job.

Wow Lund is definitely a strong forever boat ,after watching your video I'm definitely sold on purchasing a Lund ,maybe something less in length, since I love to crab and fish ,any recommendations would definitely help me out love all your videos

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

Thanks ~ Not sure how or where you fish so It's hard to make an actual helpful recommendation. But Lund makes several models in the 14 - 16 foot class. Check a few out here www.lundboats.com/

Thanks Aj im in maryland and crab in the Chesapeake and its tributaries, as well as fish , not too many places i can boating in freshwater but then again theres always traveling if need be

I see you went with the 200hp Would you think the 150 hp would be under powered in an 1875?

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

YES - Get the 200 HP and be done with it. You'll be glad you did. I certainly am. Good LUCK

[@VermontMasterAnglers]

What speeds were you maintaining in those conditions?

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

I was running down swell for half the run and then into it at the end, so the speed needed to vary quite a bit to keep from spilling over the front of the bigger waves. My rig has a 6 inch manual jackplate. Doesn't sound like much but does allow me to stay on plane at a slower speed than without. I'd say I was making something around 20 knots, give or take. But honestly the speed is completely trumped by proper boat handling in this one. Manipulating throttle speed & motor trim to Keep the bow high was the key to prevent spearing waves.

[@J_Staub]

Great boat! What kind of top speed do you get ?

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

Thanks - My rig runs mid to high 50's depending on load & conditions.

[@joshuaconner8635]

How big were the waves?

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

They were averaging 3 feet ~

[@dalinsoutdoorfishing4967]

What size motor do you have ?

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

Started with a 200 HP Optimax in May 2016 - Repowered with the 200 HP ProXS in Sept 2018 - Great Motor ! th-cam.com/video/TOB6-lDjea0/w-d-xo.html

Seems like a dry ride

[@AjLynn45thParallelFishing]

This particular ride back to the ramp was down sea and with the wind. So yes, mostly as dry ride. However the ride out in the morning was into a stiff wind & building waves, so not so dry on that one. Filmed it but the camera was getting washed out the whole time, so not much to see.
